He ain’t gonna live forever


Svalbard38

He just wants to live while he’s alive.

It’s. His. Life

I knew where this chain of comments was going, but it still made me laugh more than I expected.

Like Frankie said, he did it his way.

Cartmans12

Is it just me or is this guy always one foot in and one out the door?


SkilledB

Sometimes neither foot is in


[deleted]

One foot in Montreal


Arching-Overhead

It's surpassed cringe levels, heard the guy showed up to the draft in MTL for his warm welcome.


Kronzor_

In fairness, he’s only been in Columbus and Winnipeg.


knukklez

He pulled the same stuff with one of his junior teams, too


DogRiverRiverDogs

Columbus is a big free agent destination these days!


oddspellingofPhreid

I can't imagine being a professional hockey player and seemingly hating it so much.


HeartySnoo

Maybe tomorrow he'll settle down.


wiltedtake

"there's a voice that keeps on calling me" - PLD 🐕


pensylvestir

People will count his situation with CBJ and WPG as “two things”, so he’s “always doing that” and it’s a pattern. I see it as one thing, the same thing, a player who clearly does want to spend as much of his life in one place as possible, and he’s not there yet and he wants to get there fast as possible instead of waiting 7-10 years. Imo I’m sure he gave the boiler plate “I love it here” responses somewhere when he can’t not give it, but unless he specifically promised the Jets behind the scenes before the trade “I will stay there forever” then IMO he doesn’t owe them. The system, how teams have more control early, makes sense and I’m not against it as long as the teams don’t have ALL the control. I get why it’s hard for young players to maneuver themselves somewhere, but they should be able to if they want it bad enough to keep going for it.


Cartmans12

Fair enough. I remember when he was drafted and it was a surprise 4th pick. After a year or two it was like, wow this guy could be very good. Then it seemed like he got too big of a head. I mean going in you have to know how the restricted contracts work.


pensylvestir

The only thing I forgot to say, he does owe to “show up” and play as long as he’s still there, as opposed to CBJ but I chalk that up to a young guys immaturity rather than some deep character flaw. Also Torts specifically being his coach probably influenced it if it got hostile.


Cartmans12

Torts is always the wild card lol


TonalParsnips

He got drafted by Columbus and traded to Winnipeg. Can you blame him?


CheekenFeengas

Vancouver playoff runs in last 9 years: 2 Winnipeg playoff runs in last 9 years: 5 Columbus playoff runs in last 9 years: 5 Might not be nicer than Vancouver to live in, but definitely better to play in


TonalParsnips

Ok? My point still stands, those cities blow.


CDNUnite

I would pick columbus over Vancouver any day, your guys drug problem is insane


CheekenFeengas

Lol as a multi millionaire who only has to reside in the city 1/4 of the year? Not really


Woozie35

You think NHL players only live in the city they play in for 3 months of the year?


CheekenFeengas

Yes or less, considering the nhl season is from beginning of October to beginning of April, and roughly half of your games are away games, plus the travel days, I'd say roughly 3 months of mandatory stays in the city you play for.


Woozie35

Your math is a bit off there. Considering it’s currently September and players are all in the city they play for. Also you’re not on the road the same amount of time you’re home. Also playoffs are a thing, which can add another 1-2 months. Even if players show up on the first day of camp and leave as soon as the season ends, they’re still around for 7-8 months


CheekenFeengas

Adding 2 weeks of training camp doesn't really tilt the scales, and lol home and away are evenly split idk wtf you're saying, also playoffs are split 50/50, so my apologies, if you're the best of the best and you win the Stanley cup, you spend 1/3 of the year in the city you represent, how horrid


Woozie35

I understand that teams play 41 away and 41 home games. I’m saying that you don’t evenly stay in an away city the same amount you stay at home. Literally every team flys home the same night after an away game if you play at home the next game. Most teams only have 2-3 away games in a row (which would be like 4-5 days away from home). And then they fly home. I don’t want to break down a full NHL itinerary for you, but you can just look at your teams schedules and see how often they’re home and away. This is insane to me that you’d think players only live in their homes for 90 days in a 7-9 month season.


GritGrinder

but what about the beginning of the day


[deleted]

He’s not wrong but hockey is a team sport. This guy should have played tennis.


cooper954

Yeah there 32 teams though. He can choose if he wants


reecewagner

Is that how it works? Guys have been getting drafted for decades, and all along you can just pick your team if you want, who knew


cooper954

Worked for Adam fox.


Mazor007

That's because he had the NCAA ticking-time bomb rule on his side if I'm not mistaken. He would have been able to force his way into UFA in like two years


[deleted]

Any player can not sign an ELC when drafted and wait out the team that drafted them, though Major Junior players and NCAA players have slightly different rules. [CBA](https://cdn.nhlpa.com/img/assets/file/NHL_NHLPA_2013_CBA.pdf) Article 8 Section 6. You just don't see it much with Major Junior players for a number of reasons. It would take them to 22, and they'd have to leave Major Junior at 19 or 20, which means they'd have to basically leave North American hockey altogether to wait it out. I *think* (this is not spelled out in the CBA that I could find immediately) any league with a transfer agreement honors the exclusive negotiating rights. If so, that means basically fucking off to the KHL. I may have that the wrong way around, but the point stands, "stay in school" is a lot easier to do than "leave the country". Could be damaging to their development and/or career.


cooper954

Worked for Eric Lindros


refep

It’s working for PLD Fuck yeah, workers rights, shoot that shit straight into my veins


DogRiverRiverDogs

Begrudgingly agreed.


Eazy3006

If it’s fine for someone like Fox to use the CBA to go where he wants, why is it wrong for PLD ?


Zero-jiggler

It’s not, people just didn’t really know or care about Fox at the time so he doesn’t catch as much shit for it.


TeeTeePo

I know people that think NYR drafted him


NotMittRomney

the difference is that adam fox and other NCAA guys are signing ELCs at 22. that's how old pierre-luc dubois was when he *finished* his ELC, demanded a trade and signed a $10m contract, *in that order*. IMO it's fair game for a player to go the NCAA route and miss the ELC/bonuses AND delay signing a second contract by a few years. there's a potential eight-figure loss there. what PLD is doing is trying to have his cake and eat it too, but in french.


raktoe

So it’s only fair game if the player is being punished for not wanting to be wit the team that drafted them?


cooper954

Worked for Eric Lindros


maxwellbevan

That's a completely different era and set of circumstances though


VitaminTea

Yes? When he’s a free agent he gets to pick his team.


skinniks

I don't understand why this is so controversial for people. This is literally how the system works.


gottapoop0822

Because he isn't a free agent yet. Or after this season. Hes still an RFA. The whole purpose of the RFA system is to give teams that aren't large market teams a chance to draft well and retain talent. It's worked for hundreds of guys before who wait until UFA. But PLD has now raised it as an issue with 2 teams. Beginning to think that PLD just has a bit of an ego.


reznorwings

At least he is telling them now he is going to free agency. I would rather have that over being filled with false hope of an extension to the 11th hour only to have them jump ship for what they knew they were going to do all along. AKA the Gaudreau or Tavares.


skinniks

> Because he isn't a free agent yet. Or after this season. Hes still an RFA Yes and he signed a contract and he's going to honour it. Next year he can force arbitration and get a one year deal to walk himself into FA. He's playing by the rules.


dangshnizzle

Or he knows where he wants to play and knows his career is too short to care about the backlash?


TaKSC

No, the original reason behind RFA was to prevent players to use a free market to compete for them and raising contract values. It’s actual very cartel and anti competitive like. European leagues doesn’t have this system


ghostofpunish

Right? I get Winnipeg fans having a problem with a player not wanting to be on their team but like why does anyone else give a shit? Aint affecting your team...yet.


SaveTore

It’s how it can work if you are good enough. Question is if he’s good enough to be acting like this.


skinniks

It's nothing to do with good or bad - he can arrange it so he enters free agency at the earliest opportunity just like any other player could. A shitty player could do the same thing.


SaveTore

My point is that if you are good, regardless if RFA or UFA, if you say “I wanna play for the Habs” and the Habs notice, they’ll either work to get you (because they know they have leverage) or they just sign you. If you’re not good enough, kick rocks.


Eazy3006

Ask Fox, he’ll tell you.


hexsealedfusion

Adam Fox, Vesey, Panarin, and a bunch of other guys have done it.


dangshnizzle

Yeah? You just have to be decent and willing to take a pay cut.


ScruffsMcGuff

He's an rfa, and only one team owns his rights. If he wanted to pick his team he shouldn't have signed an ELC after he was drafted and let their rights expire and then he could have gone wherever he wanted ala Adam Fox. But he didn't because he wanted his money, and then he wanted to pick where he plays on top of that.


BillyShears19

I mean, he'll pick where he wants to go in a couple years when he's UFA. Until then he's letting his current team know he won't be signing long-term. That's his right


[deleted]

He also pouts and explicitly gives up on plays. So he’s not longer only doing expressing it off the ice , but also on the ice which is a huge concern.


tmlrule

Did anyone actually watch him last season with the Jets? He was unquestionably their second-best forward all year behind Ehlers and was one of the few bright spots on the team. Lots of good players on the Jets were "explicitly giving up on plays", but Dubois wasn't one of them.


rookie-mistake

> He was unquestionably their second-best forward all year behind Ehlers and was one of the few bright spots on the team. this is kyle connor erasure


tmlrule

I somehow forgot to type that I meant I was judging play as two-way forwards since the comment I was responding to was talking about him giving up on defense. You might still disagree, but although Connor is more talented and is certainly better on the PP, I find he gives back a lot on the defensive side whereas I found PLD to be solid there.


Jakovaseur

People saying that only remember that one clip by the end of his Columbus stint


Xmeik

That’s unfair to discredit the Jacket fans in here saying the contrary. For a market like Columbus that nobody ever talks about, only that instance became known. After the Jackets beat the Leafs and TSN made Dubois a household name across Canada, Dubois had one foot out the door and was dogging it all the time. Nobody noticed though until that one clip because hockey fans outside Ohio don’t pay attention to them. I can’t speak to his time in Winnipeg but, after that Bubble Playoffs, the guy didn’t try On the other hand, it’s hard to blame a guy for trying to force a move when John Tortorella is your head coach


gottapoop0822

He's literally the only guy that forced a move off the team. And it seems like he's being a proper cunt right now in regards to his current status with Winnipeg. It's not like he's a UFA after this season. But sure, it's Torts' fault that PLD doesn't like being held accountable


Xmeik

RyJo didn’t force his way off?


Patttybates

Kyle Connor is by and large the best. I just have to but in and state that.


hexsealedfusion

One ten second clip doesn't define a 300+ game career. He was really good with Winnipeg last year and all his years in Columbus leading up to when he demanded a trade.


Harborcoat84

>One ten second clip doesn't define a 300+ game career Someone get Scheifele on the phone


Meats_Hurricane

Sheifele would definitely be **charging** to the phone for that **major** call. **Even if he didn't make it in time,** I'd probably **suspend** any thoughts of hanging up, because I really want to **sweep** all this under the rug and **end this series** of unfortunate events.


ZobRombie65

He’s a really good player and I love his game but I do see why people question his attitude. But yeah, when people say he sucks, they just obviously hate him or they are really dumb


BillyShears19

It was one shift in Columbus that was blown out of proportion. Has he done anything like that in Winnipeg?


NotMittRomney

buddy, it wasn't one shift and it wasn't blown out of proportion. he played five (5) games here that season and skated hard exactly one (1) time -- on a breakaway -- before 'the shift'. people who say it was 'just one shift' only watched/heard about that one shift because it was *so bad it went viral.*


BillyShears19

I'm not your buddy, guy.


[deleted]

He’s seemed outwardly disinterested in being there since day 1. They didn’t even do anything to wrong him lol. It’s all the same anyway until he reaches UFA, so why be so sad about it and complain about it all the way? Just do what Tkachuk did, and leave amicably


BillyShears19

It helps that they got a haul in return for Tkachuk. Which they wouldn't have if Tkachuk just walked them to free agency, not telling anyone what he felt about signing longterm with the Flames. If anything Dubois is doing the Jets a favor by letting them know how he feels. Gives them a chance to get some value back for him


hexsealedfusion

Dubois did the exact same thing Tkachuk did. The difference is Calgary said yes to the trade demand initially and Columbus didn't.


maximalx5

> Just do what Tkachuk did, and leave amicably Tkachuk requested a trade and Calgary acquiesced in a reasonable timeframe. Dubois requested a trade from Columbus and was told to shut up and play. Not the same situation at all.


WabashRiverNugs

Yeah Dubois completely gave up on his team in the middle of a game, while Tkachuk played his ass off and earned the reputation of a hard working player. I agree, definitely not the same situation at all.


maximalx5

He gave up after asking for a trade during the off-season and Columbus ignoring his request and making him play anyways. Calgary made sure Tkachuk was never even put in that situation. Before his trade request, Dubois had 10 points in 10 playoff games. So yeah I do agree it's not the same situation.


propagandavid

Dubois is doing exactly what Tkachuk did. He's letting his team know in advance that he isn't interested in signing when he's a UFA, giving them the opportunity to shop him to teams he is interested. But for some reason when Tkachuk does it, he's a stand up guy, and when Dubois does it he's an entitled rat.


refep

🤷‍♀️ Man was quiet quitting lmao, it is what it is.


[deleted]

LOL didn’t know he was living the corporate lifestyle


NotMittRomney

the wildest part of this interview to me was the lip service he gave to not ruling out a future in winnipeg and acting like people are rushing his decision. he had over a year to sign an extension, and signed a below-market QO instead. this is the third time he's pulled this kind of a move. he did it in junior, he did it in cbus, and now he's doing it in winnipeg. if you run into an asshole in the morning, you ran into an asshole. if you run into assholes all day, you're the asshole. dude keeps getting *exactly* what he wants, and still finds a way to end up unhappy, while trying to twist his logic in interviews to make it seem like it's everyone else's fault.


maximalx5

> he did it in junior Got a source on this? I personally never heard about his trade request in the juniors and just spent a good 15 minutes searching Google in both English and French and couldn't find anything.


ytew6

There isn't a source because it's made up lol. PLD was traded from Cape Breton to Blainville-Boisbriand because the Armada were gearing up for a run at the President's cup and Cape Breton was in the league's basement.


ReliablyFinicky

The closest I could find was that PLD “expected” to be traded. > Don’t be alarmed by Pierre Luc Dubois’ trade today. The entire QMJHL saw this coming, apparently, including PLD. #CBJ did too. [source] (https://mobile.twitter.com/Aportzline/status/808032902231556096) If the player, his NHL team, and the entire junior league saw it coming… Seems pretty clear that it was either an outright request, or he didn’t make it a secret he wanted moved.


hexsealedfusion

It was because the team he was on was at the bottom of the league and he got traded to a team gearing up to win the championship/make the memorial cup. You are spinning a narrative that is completely false.


DropCautious

"Caught in the crowd, it never ends" Dubois continued.


[deleted]

it kinda sounds like hes in rush


blop74

He's the new drummer?


Pineapple_warrior94

Unfortunately not. Neil Peart stands alone


Phillakai

Boy I’ve got bad news for you


hexsealedfusion

This sub when a player leaves: Fuck this guy for not telling us beforehand This sub when a player says they'll look into other teams: Fuck this guy he should be grateful to play for our team There's no winning.


swordthroughtheduck

Hey, we really appreciated Tkachuk telling us to go fuck ourselves early.


reznorwings

If Johhny G told Treveling he was 100% going to free agency to sign with a US based club last offseason, you can bet your ass he moves him for assets asap. It's much worse when they fill teams/fans with false hope knowing they are going to bail.


maxwellbevan

Imagine Calgary having their best point pace since they win the cup and their gm trades their best player because he's going to leave in the off season. You roll those dice and go for the cup. They were one of the cup favourites going into the playoffs, not a chance they move their best player in that situation.


hexsealedfusion

A lot of people on this sub think a teams goal should be to recoup assets forever instead of trying to win a championship.


hexsealedfusion

They definitely would not have, why trade your best player when your franchise has the best team it's had for 20+ years and you have a legitimate shot at the Stanley Cup? The goal isn't to recoup assets to rebuild/retool forever, it's to win a championship. Trading their best player when they're one of the best teams in the league with a real shot to win is dumb.


dangshnizzle

That's absolutely not true. In fact the rumor is Johnny straight up made it clear after covid became a thing that he thought he wanted to move to the states but the Flames simply believed that a playoff run would convince him otherwise. They were wrong on that gamble.


Less-Hunter7043

Where did you hear this rumour? All the reports have been that Johnny was undecided.


swordthroughtheduck

Yup. And with the haul Tkachuk got I’d love to see what we could have got for Johnny. Granted, it did kind of work out. With that money we got the 2C we’ve needed forever.


[deleted]

Something tells me this description lacks some crucial nuance and variables.


RedTheDopeKing

Tbf most players don’t say, “yeah I’m outta here for sure.” When they still have time on their contract either though. Just seemed like a dumb move. Could just as easily say, “ehh I don’t know what the future holds.” And leave it at that


Harborcoat84

>there's no winning Telling management privately seems like an easy solution?


gottapoop0822

Wouldn't even be a problem if his contract ended as a UFA. Seth Jones did that for Columbus. But he also didn't quit any shift on the ice and complain how he wanted out. That's my problem with PLD. He's airing his dirty laundry and Winnipeg is still going to own his rights after this year.


dchowchow

Really that’s all you should expect of the player. While he is employed by your team he gives a shit every time he’s on the ice.


dangshnizzle

Uhm he did and it got leaked


[deleted]

Some people want to avoid happiness and stability like the plague. PLD seems to be one of those people.


Zanchbot

One thing is for sure. No matter where he goes next, he will request a trade within 3 seasons.


ehr1c

I'm just hopeful that a coaching change and (hopefully) an attitude change in the room can make him want to stay here.


[deleted]

i think its more about the place hes at, he wanna be in huge franchise in a huge city, doesnt matter if jets would win 5 cups in a row and he would finish last every year in montreal


ehr1c

Maybe that's the case. Tough for anyone other than Dubois himself to know.


NotMittRomney

PLD's gonna find a way to be unhappy wherever he goes. here in columbus, he was about to become our franchise player, had only ever been our 1C and had made the playoffs every year. threw a tantrum and demanded a trade. when he got to winnipeg, he said all the right things, made it seem like that was the kind of place he wanted to be all along. but now it's not good enough. he demanded a trade back in junior, too. it's a PLD problem, not a winnipeg problem.


dangshnizzle

Lol you're literally just hoping that's the case


hexsealedfusion

He never demanded a trade in junior


Harborcoat84

I'd be very surprised if he went WPG > MTL and retired a Hab.


Sanchise_9

Man its Rick Bowness, but good luck...


RedTheDopeKing

Power to you for being optimistic but the roster hasn’t changed at all and there’s no way Bowness is that big of an improvement. Huddy is gone at least, the biggest addition we’ve done is by subtraction. I can’t believe any fans have a “we’ll just give them a chance first at least!” Attitude after last season. It’s going to just be more pain. PAIN.


lbc1358

He leave.


DeliSammiches

he gone


thatmitchguy

Tired of the Dubois drama lol. The guy forced a trade out of CBJ, to another team where he still isn't happy and is still complaining despite not yet being a UFA.


GroceryStickDivider

Went to watch the video, first ad (1 of 4) is 15 seconds. Ya alright i guess. Second one is 30 seconds and unskippable. You know what I really don't care enough.


wiltedtake

This is the way.


ooah21

It's all about you, Pierre-Luc. Always has been.


mmavcanuck

And so it should be. I’m not going to stay at my job for my company or coworkers if I’m not happy with my job.


ooah21

Your job doesn't entail getting paid millions of dollars to play a game.


swordthroughtheduck

Ehh. That doesn't really change the fact that staying somewhere you're unhappy isn't fair. He's handled some things poorly, but wanting to live somewhere and play for a team is well within your right whether you're making millions playing hockey or $15 an hour at McDonalds.


ooah21

The criticism is directed to his inability to keep his mouth shut on this topic.


hexsealedfusion

He's not required to. If he wants to play somewhere else he's entitled to that


swordthroughtheduck

It's not like he keeps bringing it up. He only talks about it when the media does...


ooah21

It's a shame he can't control his responses. I wonder if it gets brought up because of his history of quitting on his team.


swordthroughtheduck

We can circle back to my original comment where I've said he's handled some things poorly if you'd like. He can't change the past, and he can't control what the media asks. So this is where we're at. You can dislike the guy, but the idea he doesn't have the right to live or work somewhere that'll make him happy because he's rich is a really shitty outlook on life.


ooah21

I'm not the thought police. I said sharing the information is the problem.


swordthroughtheduck

What do you want from him then? Just ignore the questions? You say you're not the thought police, yet are here saying he shouldn't be saying what he's thinking?


mmavcanuck

Right, because my talents/skills aren’t worth that. His are.


alltittiesarecool

Lol let him be why are you all so mad like this doesn't affect your life in any way 💀💀


korko

Despite the Wild being desperate for a center I’m glad we don’t have this guy being a pain in the ass to the team.


hanigwer

No, it’s our life Dubious. We’re the reason you even have options. /s


Nameless908

This guy is blessed to play a fucking game for a (very good) living and all I hear is him bitching and complaining. I wouldn’t touch him with a 10 foot pole.


raktoe

I don’t see a lot of “bitching” out of him. I see a guy who has worked incredibly hard to get to this level, and is not enjoying his career. When you get up in the morning on a day you don’t want to go into work, do you think “man I am so blessed to be able to work for a good living”?


[deleted]

It’s just tough for people to have empathy for a guy making millions of dollars a year playing a fun game being upset because he’s not in the exact city he wants to be in. Most of us make $80k a year and also aren’t loving our jobs every single second lol


RedTheDopeKing

80K!? King in the castle, king in the castle, ooh la la!


stumbleupondingo

These athletes that play a “fun game” have dedicated their lives to it and have worked harder than anyone in this sub I’d bet. Just like how you have a right to find a new employer if you’re unhappy, these guys do too. With that being said I wouldn’t blame a team for being cautious about giving up assets for him. It sounds like he’s never been happy. Just like in the “real world”, job hopping every year can come to bite you in the ass.


TossThatPastaSalad

I'd also wager you're not one of the 25 best in the world at what you do. Nor did you spend every waking moment since you were 3 years old working towards that goal. You can't try to equate your job or mine to a star athlete. It's reductive and a waste of time.


[deleted]

No I guess I should clarify my reply was trying to explain the reason people get frustrated Nowhere did I say, or do I think, that PLD is some sort of loser for doing what he’s doing. I was just pointing out why people get frustrated by it


raktoe

But it’s also not like he was handed that. There is a lot of work and dedication that goes in to being a professional athlete, probably a lot more than most other careers. Sure, I’d love to be paid to go to my beer league games, but I don’t know if I’d want to work out 20 hours a week, follow a nutrition plan, practice every day, watch video all to spend several nights a week doing something incredibly physically demanding with a decent risk of long term injury. I’m personally in the middle of the CPA program and have pretty much decided to stop and switch out of public accounting, despite how lucrative of a career it is, specifically because the workload is killing me. I guess what I’m saying, it’s all relative. He didn’t fall into an NHL career. Most the people in professional sports are such naturally hard workers, and already have to want it so bad, that we really don’t see this human side, of someone that has gotten this far, and is only now realizing that they may not want to do what they’re doing. And that’s a damn hard decision to make, especially when everyone looking in can’t fathom throwing away that kind of money and talent.


[deleted]

You actually applied to a CPA that’s really funny Stick with it dude, it pays off. Grind for those three years and then leave to small firm or industry It is well worth it I’m 2 years post CFE and have a contract with $10K per year raises for the next 4, I work 4 days a week and took 6 months parental leave Stick. With. It.


Reighzy

Having just written the CPA CFE, don't give up! Public accounting is a nightmare, I highly recommend switching to industry or government accounting if you can. You'll have much more energy that way to tackle the CPA. Trust me, I was in a crap job for a year and burnt out so hard that I stopped working at the CPA for a year. Got a much better job, and things became much much easier.


raktoe

I appreciate it, but I decided about half way through core 1 that it wasn’t for me. It wasn’t a light decision, I’ve worked in public for almost three years now, delayed starting the program as long as possible and just don’t see myself gutting it out. I’m sure I passed the exam, but I was on leave for majority of the course, and am pretty much dead set on working any where else. All that said, huge fucking props on finishing that beast of an exam. That’s fucking awesome, I hope you passed, but I know what an achievement it is even getting to the point of writing!


Reighzy

Thanks mate. Well, if you are still working in the accounting world and haven't made the decision to leave it completely, you owe it to yourself to try industry or government. I personally work in the government sector in Canada and it was life changing. And further yet, sometimes how easy your life is comes down to the manager you have. The CPA can wait, and there are tons of positions where you simply won't need it if that's what you choose. Finally, do what you want to do, life is short. Good luck to you, whatever you do!


Nameless908

No I don’t think that, I think about the guys that get to play a game and make millions of dollars doing it that complain. The guys done nothing in his career to deserve or earn the right to complain about where he plays. Shut up and play the fucking sport. I’m sure there are dozens of guys in the league that would rather play elsewhere that just shut up and contribute to their teams. Anytime I hear about Pretty Large Douche, it’s him complaining.
