Miracle

It's not out yet. It's "The Saga of the Arizona Coyote's". It will be #1 ever produced hockey movie.

Indian Horse is a powerful movie.

Never heard of it. Danka Schön.

 

[Dirty Old Man]

it's still Slap Shot. Much as I liked Goon, Mystery Alaska, and Miracle... seeing clips of that movie at AWA in the 90s followed by watching it over and over on VHS when i was first being exposed to the sport, before i'd even ever started playing, is still tops.

You joke but the 30 for 30 potential of the Coyotes is absolutely off the charts!!!

So long as we the fans get portrayed sympathetically and not "what fans?" I'd support this

 

[Bondurant]

I'd flip a coin to determine Slap Shot or Miracle. Watch them both every year.

 

[MIGs Dog]

Who would have thought you'd find a house like this in Gilbert? Imagine the drunken go cart race parties.

 

[bluesXwinXtheXcup]

Slap Shot.

But I'm also looking forward to the new movie with Brett Hull and Teemu Selanne:

I know that besides me, only two people on this forum might care about a new stadium for the KC Royals, but I find it an interesting comparison to the Tempe vote. The TED would not have involved taxpayer funds and almost certainly would have been revenue-positive for the city...it failed. The Royals are asking KC taxpayers to foot half the bill, a whopping $1 BILLION!

This guy (community activist type) is trying to rally opposition, but I think it will easily pass. Residents love the Royals; in KC, there is a different vibe for their team than how most valley residents think about the Coyotes...if they think about them at all.

I play golf with a former Royal's Pitcher and a tweener catcher who's up and down from Triple A in the Royal's system. Have never heard either say a bad word about the City or the Team. Good luck with the campaign

Does Quebec City want a baseball team?

Does Quebec City want a baseball team?

Anyone know if by "run out of time in Phoenix" it was clear Kendricks meant Phoenix, or was he hinting at Arizona?

They can have the owner…. team can stay here.

A’s wanted to go to Vegas….. DBacks threatened to go there 4 years ago.

Vegas doesn’t want the A’s (they see their owner sucks)…. But would probably love the DBacks.

What's wrong with the current stadium?

 

[TheLegend]

What's wrong with the current stadium?

- Roof leaks and often doesn’t open/close properly

- Broken water lines everywhere.

- At 25 years old, it’s becoming one of the oldest parks in the league.

Yet the two oldest parks are considered gems and likely will never be demolished.

Cheaper to fix the roof and water lines I bet, but isn't the dispute about who pays to fix it? Seems like a solvable problem.

Yup, it's called negotiations.

You have to get past the 50-year mark before nostalgia starts to erase the shortcomings of a sporting facility. Plus, Chase Field was a cold, impersonal warehouse when it was built, and I don't think time has really changed that impression.

Sure, if Phoenix doesn't mind putting a couple dozen million bucks of taxpayer dough on the line for renovations. Ken Kendrick doesn't like spending his own money.

The elite class in this country is in for a rude awakening if they think they’re going to keep getting regular people to pay for their stuff…

Parisians hated the Eiffel Tower when it was built and couldn't wait for the World's Fair to be over so it could be torn down. I guess some things grow on you.
