The Aziz story is very debatable, but most of the other high profile cases seem to be a lot more cut and dry.

Yeah, I think Mike has offered to make a thread of just the offers. To clean that up from the chatter.

Re: Ovauction

Here’s the short version, ask someone what they’d like to be called instead of telling them what you’d like to call them.

Otherwise it’s like

“hey, my name is Sean”

“It’s nice to meet you Fanny”

Calling me a brownie is gross.

Me explaining what happened to people of colour and indigenous people isn’t gross. Its kind. There’s a difference.
You’re lost wasn’t there yet. My comment was to Blake about woman being sexually harassed by compliments.

I haven’t read your report yet.

Ahh, well - that isn’t gross either.

Sexual harassment is a matter to be taken seriously. IMO anyway.
is it ? That girl that said Anzi Anzari did something looks ridiculous

Some of these guys are just an abuse of power and get the pervy label. I guess thats what they call sexual misconduct tho.

Ie: Louis CK stroking himself in a robe in front of some chicks.

But theres no assault there. Thats just silly. Creepy sure but hes not a Weinstein. Harvey falls in the assault or rape category certainly.

Aziz’s accusations just sound like he was tryin to get laid. Its not the same as these molesters n shit either. Embarrassing to have to deal with that. Its in the Louis category if anything. But its even less than that.

Re: Ovauction

The Aziz one runs the risk of jumping-the-shark, in that it reads more like the case of a "date gone bad" than some pervasive sexual harassment/quid-pro-quo type power play in Hollywood.

At what point do you take the very great things that have happened (outing the creeps) and turn that into something that gets trivial.

These are such important things, I think, that you don't want to run the risk of Boy Who Cried Wolfing it.

At least we've seen there's been some pushback there, and people are going "Hold on, let's be reasonable here."

After a 1st date, girl agrees to go back to guy’s place. Did she think his intentions were to watch rerun of friends?

I think you're understating the issue with Louis.

Agreed.

Sexual harassment in the workplace is serious and there should be 0 tolerance

Taking a girl on a date, bringing her home, then constantly pointing at your crotch hoping she'll go to town on you, and then having her leave in tears, just means you have no game, not that you should be called out for sexual harassment.

Totally agree.

Those cheeseball accusations make the serious ones lose validity on some level.

Ovauction

Casey Mittelstadt > Schneider & 2nd 19


Travis Konecny > Bjorkstrand


1st in '19 (Racers)< 1st 18 (Express)


This is closer than I thought. Leaning towards Racers & Tycoons on quality over quantity. Giving it some thought, but I think I like the Patrick’s/Domi’s/Firsts etc over Schneider ... but on the other hand I could use a younger goalie. But he’s not that young.

Anyway, I’ll research these guys more. Lots of different names coming up that I hadn’t really seriously considered and don’t wanna miss something because I didn’t use google

Re: Ovauction

For some perspective:

#CBJ  @OBjorkstrand is 3rd on team in assists (18) and points (26) -- behind @9Artemi Panarin and @joshanderson_77 in both categories. His average ice time (14:03), however, is less than every Jacket who’s played at least 30 games besides @27SMiLano (10:52) and @sedli22 (10:20)

His minutes will go up too.

I can’t believe Tony thinks Middlestat is as valuable as Ptraick. He plays in the Nhl. He’d be better off in the WHL for his value in this thread.
