We're Mentioned Again on Fox!

1) We were happy to read this morning on the best Fox Sports Hockey Blogs, Spector, another mention of a FAUXRUMORS exclusive. He again tried to discuss the Malkin trade rumor that we alone broke this past summer.

2) Other hockey trade rumor blogs have picked up the story so it has begun to take a life of its own. Although Spector as a respected blog journalist could not agree with our assessment, just him mentioning it as a possibility has to lend credibility to the story.
3) We have nothing new to add to our original story that Malkin does NOT want to play his entire carear behind Sid/in his shadow. That, and the fact that Pittsburgh will have several other stars to pay top dollar in the upcoming 2-3 years, will make Malkin the prime player who may need to be traded while entering his prime.
As with all stories, we will stay a top of this one as it devlops

Ha ha ha ha! My gut hurts from laughing so hard!

Faux...you tell everyone that posting links to sites is Spam...then you post one in your very own BLOG!

Just as I thought...Links are OK when they support you?

As for Spector mentioning YOU...he does not once mention YOU...he mentions generally the rumor blogs that say Malkin could be moved.

All you have to do is google...Malkin Trade Rumors...and you get about 100 hits! Yep...definitely a FAUX exclusive!

Hilarious!

Congrats Faux! I do recall reading this Spector gentleman writing a similar story about you a month or two ago. Seems he likes to discuss your trade rumors after all.
You made the big time now faux!! LOL

1) Thanks Cornelius! Good to see that a majority of our readers recall when this was last mentioned on Fox. Our mail box was almost full with folks wanting us to see the Fox article.
2) To reiterate: Spam are unsolicited mentions of other web sites on our site. As we ARE THE AUTHORS, we can and will use/link other web sites.
3) You as the readers can not. Simple. If you do not like our policy, feel free and not respond. Simple.

1) Welcome Cornelius...always nice to see another FAUX commentor!

2) I am glad you finally come out and say it! But it still isn't 'spam' when the user gives permission...for example if I add in my blog address I give permission...it isn't 'spam'...now it can be YOUR POLICY...but it isn't spam.

3) YOU WISH!

?? Why you so against people posting links in their comments anyways? I know it is your blog and you can create your own rules...but just curious your rationale?

As a regular peruser to this blog I have noticed that anyone who agrees with the author is not real to this hockeynutz gentleman. I went to his blog only once. While it wasn't poorly written he did seem to have an over abundance of articles written about THIS site. Perhaps just a bit obsessed may be the word.
To answer him directly; I am real, sir. My opinions are my own.

Unknown said...

Well...'Masked Rider' sorry about my suspicion...just crazy how these 1 time commentors show up, hang on the site for half an hour and keep posting replys...then disappear!

Weird how many of them create blogs with content copied from other sites and/or have no content on their blog!

It is clear that they all only comment on this blog!

Pretty coincidental!

Hey Masked Rider...do me a favour...

Post a comment on my blog!

I want to add you to my list of "real commentors" to Faux's blog...but need the comment in my blog so i can do so!

Thanks Mate!

Masked Rider said...

Let me see if we understand eachother. You wish me to write to you on your blog to prove that I'm real? How would that action assist you in that effort?
I believe no matter what actions I took, outside of showing up at your parent's front door to say hello, would prove to you that I exist.
I believe I have been around long enough to not have to prove to anyone, anything. As I mentioned in my previous corespondance, obsessed, indeed!

Unknown said...

Yes...I wish to use a Blogger Widget which will let me know when you update your blog. The only way I can add you to the roster is by you registering or by you simply commenting on my blog.

Thanks man!

LOL... It IS curious, even to me FAUX... Cornelius Peart? Where are Geddy and Alex? Where's the modern day warrior? Subdivisions anyone?


FAUX, I call em' the way I see em' - with a different approach than NUTZ, of course. I don't have that much free time.

Masked Rider said...

Thanks Antz for noticing where my inspirations emanated from. Again I ask both you and Hockeynutz, how and why does this somehow diminish my opinions?
How would any of you know where else I am blogging. More importantly, why do all of you seem to care?

Antzmarching said...

RIDER SAYS: Again I ask both you and Hockeynutz, how and why does this somehow diminish my opinions?

And ANTZ says, "it doesn't and it doesn't." Just having fun - chill oWt...

i don't follow hockey all the time. my business takes me out of the country often and getting scores is difficult.
I use blogs on line to get all the scoops. This has to be one of the better ones I've come across. Good work guys

"Mi Dum" is AKA Jack Demers... Ok, that's just mean... The poor guy overcame his disability to become a highly successful coach in the NHL... Dude, give him a break... What specifically have YOU ever accomplished, other than mean-spirited blather?
