Some are better than others. Do all merit publishing?

“Better quotes” is kinda hard, because they’re–you know–quotes.

“sensational” was a joke – humor. Yikes. Some folks are awful touchy – wowza.

I think I was very respectful of Mr. Hammond.

I never said Mr. Hammond should threaten/censor anyone. Just that *I* would prefer – better quotes. The players/coaches etc. give canned junk because they know they can and it will be “printed.” Now if anyone has any better suggestions on how to get better quotes, they should share it. That is unless you want to spend your life reading Tweet quality junk.

Have to agree with the responses to MmmmmYummmmy. Can’t figure out where he/she is coming from. It is clear that we trust RIch to give us the best coverage possible and it is equally clear that he has delivered. I want to hear what all of the players are saying and if some are giving canned answers I can live with it. This is a new age of journalism not just for us but for the players as well. This means that we have had access to players who in the past we probably would not hear from. What MY is suggesting is almost asking Rich to censor what the players are saying, by excluding those that MY does not want to hear from. I cannot imagine Rich would ever do that. I know that I will trust Rich to get the best information that he can get to share with us.

Way to go Quick…who cares what your stats say, as was said in a previous thread, what matters is winning.

Back to Quick….Outside of the couple of games where Quicker let some soft goals in, the guy has been outstanding.

I never understood the critcism that he takes.

Anze, JJ, Fro and a couple of others do deserve some of the shots because there are some nights when they obviously do not bring their best games.

Quick, Simmonds, Williams, Richardon, O’Donnell, DD and many others deserve all the kudos they get and then some.

Nice work on the blog Rich

@MmmmYummy

I can’t believe anyone would be so ungrateful for this blog. Rich works hard and puts in a lot of time to get us this insight that no other fans get on other teams. Why should every quote be sensational? It’s a blog. Do you really think Rich threatening to not post a player’s quote would make them change what they say? As it is we get a ton of info, and even in the blandest of quotes have interest to me and to other Kings fans. Rich doesn’t control what the players say, so if you don’t like what they’re saying, don’t read the blog.
