Pests, Punks and Being Phadouche
2008-03-25 18:31:00 I really have to hand it to Adrian Dater this season. His blog All Things Avs (though it's more of an online journal, which is different than a blog) has been quite the Blender Of Feces. His latest spoon in the toilet is this post, in which he calls Dion Phaneuf "a punk" for his dirty tricks on the ice and his tendency to go running for cover when somebody tries to call him on it. Dater didn't just stop there, though, he dragged Detroit into it by comparing Phadouche to Pistons pest-of-the-past Bill Laimbeer, one of the most infamous dirty players in NBA history. In the days before defense was banned completely from professional basketball, Laimbeer's elbows made Chris Pronger's look pillowy in comparison. Cheap shots after the whistle, clutching and grabbing for no reason, quick jabs into the back and head, you name it, Laimbeer did it. And he ran his big mouth the whole time. He was so annoying even Larry Bird tried to kick his ass once. Well, ...

One sign depicts a macho-looking man in a bathing costume apparently ready with his next chat-up line. But he has a diagonal line across his torso, in a manner similar to signs saying ?No Dogs?. Ironically, dogs are allowed on the ?Pink Beach?.?This is not a lesbian beach,? Fausto Ravaglia, the businessman behind the idea to ban men, said. ?It is simply for women to be themselves.?Cinzia Donati, 43, a housewife from Milan, agreed. ?I?ve left my husband and son behind ? and I feel I?ve arrived in paradise,? she said.
