Around SBN: Kobe Bryant Will Never Top Michael Jordan

John Tortorella complains about 24/7 cameras


http://www.sbnation.com/nhl/2011/5/12/2168648/philadelphia-flyers-new-york-rangers-2012-winter-classic

Dear John,

Perhaps it might've escaped your attention, but HBO's award winning show isn't audio only, so yes, we really must insist on having cameras in your dressing room.

We're sorry that you find it intrusive, but after a while, you'll forget they're there. I do suspect though, that you may be concerned about the audience perceiving you to be a jackass. I can allay all your fears because I can guarantee there won't be any misperceptions.

A quick search on YouTube confirms that your upstanding reputation will not be tarnished. (Any more than it is). We are really looking forward to this series and even next year's, where we will focus on the other Eastern Conference teams which haven't had too much exposure.

We look forward to working with you and the NY Rangers and we are sure that these four episodes will be full of excitement and drama, some of which may even occur on the ice.

Yours sincerely,

Mr Hugh Jaction

A quick call from Bettman to the Rangers should clear this up. Either Torts backs off, or the Rangers next Winter Classic will be in 2038.

Just got done watching the first episode of 24/7. I love Torts. That is all.

I love Bryz…but still hate the Flyers

Goalie coach? We don't need no stinking goalie coach!

When they introduced his fascination with the universe, it sounded like some new age cult.
