That’s exactly my point, all you know if he said what he is supposed to say. Trying to make that into “he has such a great attitude” is wishful thinking based upon what that player chose to portray with a camera on him or a microphone in front of his face.

If you tell your girlfriend you only have eyes for her, and then you go to work and plow your co-worker in the restroom every day, is telling your girlfriend that you only have eyes for her a good attitude trait?

The problem with your analogy is that the comment in the scenario is followed by a disingenuous action. So unless Nemec now decides to reject his assignment and says fvck y’all I’m going back home, then the analogy doesn’t compare. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SterioDesign Posted October 13, 2022 Share Posted October 13, 2022 (edited) Bottom line. In 98% of cases. Someone will say what they say. No matter what their actual intentions are. You will believe what you want to believe based on your personal feelings / narrative towards that person. That it's warranted or not. The 2% usually use past patterns and history of said person to make an educated guess. In this case we basically have no track record of Nemec so who knows. Personally since i haven't heard of anything negative about him from his past i'll just assume that he's genuine in what he's saying Edited October 13, 2022 by SterioDesign Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That sneaky liar… He could. He could play the whole season in Utica and the entire time be thinking that management fvcked him over and that he is better than at least 3 of the D-men who made the team, but as long as he says “it’s best for me” when there is a reporter there, it’s all good.

Our last 1st round defenseman that didn’t make the team his 1st season (Ty Smith) certainly didn’t take it this well.

Did anyone ever watch a Ty Smith interview or anything he ever did and think he was smart and knew what to say? He seemed half brain damaged to me.

SterioDesign Posted October 13, 2022 Share Posted October 13, 2022 (edited) Remember that time Ian Cole said he wanted to bring leadership and have a positive impact on and off the ice in Carolina in that interview. He said it. it's set in stone. He has an amazing attitude. Now queue the usual suspect completely ignoring that my post was obviously tongue in cheek and make a big deal out of it.

mfitz804 Posted October 13, 2022 Share Posted October 13, 2022 3 minutes ago, MB3 said: wouldn’t it be “cue”? if there’s only one suspect that’s not much of a queue. From the internet: ”“Cue” has a variety of meanings, but all uses of “queue” relate to its original French meaning of “tail,” which becomes a metaphor for a line (beware, however: in French queue is also rude slang for the male sex organ).” He may have been referring to you as a male sex organ, he does speak French lol.
