News Article: Colorado Avalanche Media Coverage Part VI

[MonsterMack]

Obviously Biz shouldn't have challenged six people to a fight by himself. That only works in Jackie Chan movies. But he's a hothead with machismo to spare, so he got in the middle of it anyway, and fortunately was able to get away without serious injuries. Street fights are a dumb idea when it's one on one, six on one is asking to spend the rest of your life communicating by blinking Morse code.

Biz was defending the harassed staff and didn't expect the guys to actually throw down. But yeah, he is very lucky to come out of that relatively unscathed. Some of those attempted kicks were brutal.

The group apparently are "Irish Travellers" which is something I wasn't remotely aware of.

This story just keeps getting weirder.

They were Travellers? Who decided to go golfing? Then got kicked out of a golf clubhouse for throwing punches at a waitress? Then started harassing the floor staff at a local restaurant, because they wouldn't serve them drinks? Then got into a fight with a broadcaster/former NHLer, and chased him down in the parking lot?

I'm gonna need a mini doc on these guy's entire day stat.

Shitty con artists with drinking problems.

I'd heard they were a bunch of golfers out of Dallas. After I heard that, it all kinda made sense to me.

Golfers in Dallas, say around springtime - that I am down with.

I guess DNVR played off some people including someone unnamed on the Avs beat. I would venture to say AJ since he moved a million miles away, but I hate to speculate.

I heard they labelled themselves "Dirty Mike and the Boys" and were looking for random Prius' to f*** in.

Pretty shitty to layoff a bunch of people a week away from Christmas.

For sure. That entire organization has always come off as douchy though.

AJ posted this...not sure what it means

Spano defending the layoffs before Xmas because they get paid through January is laughable. That’s not the point jackass.

 

[JLo217]

I mean if you get laid off living in CT for a job that is very Colorado based … idk the Avs aren’t in CT…

 

[Balthazar]

I've been saying for years now that I don't understand how DNVR can generate enough money to be able to have this many people on the payroll. It made no sense.

Doesn't sound like AJ was one of the guys that got laid off.

When is a good time to lay people off? Frankly Id rather see it implode and shut down. That whole operation is a joke. The talented people there will find jobs, the blowhards hopefully get what's coming to them and learn from it

Wait, he's criticising the company that he is currently working for? Not a good marketing sign for the parent DNVR company here. Wouldn't be surprised if he gets the next axe, this is very Kaapo Kakko type of talk.

Looks like it was the new guy
