Golfingboy Posted August 3, 2021 Share Posted August 3, 2021 1 minute ago, Yessongs said: I am anxious to see how well Simone Biles perform tonite? So happy for Suni Lee and Jade Carey. The American press is all over the women's Soccer team saying "it is time to get younger" Geez if they had won they would have been saying " experience wins out over being a younger team" I can see why athletes hate the press at times. I don’t know how much you follow hockey, but those are some pretty serious accusations against the Sharks’ Evander Kane. Probably true, I mean pissing away $50+ million, bankrupt, known gambler….,,might be the NHL version of Pete Rose BTW, I love Pete, a no-brainer he should 100% be in Hall of Fame 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ultimate test for an athlete, to have a 1,500m and shot put in the same event……not the same set of skills, or muscles Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

His soon to be ex-wife has, sold him out on Social Media. He has made $56 Million over 12 years in the NHL and is $27 Million in debt. If they find out he bet with a " bookie" on Sharks games, he is done. Just turned 30 yesterday and what a real shame. How many guys on this planet would love to have his skill level and make that kind of money and just can't shake the gambling addiction? Yep another Pete Rose in the making. Of course Kane has denied he ever bet on hockey....the investigators will find out for sure. The bookies will sell him out if he has not paid them. I am a big Sharks fan, going opening night Oct 16th against Winnipeg. Wifely likes Hockey live too....and the fights! 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
