Had their Barack and I didn't end it's at or not to get. Through sentimental about it but in in in. But nevertheless she has been here for -- for the campaign and -- to death inched into second that the Super Bowl keep and so that during that dreadful Oscar show -- She's married a guy that patter back and how important that has been to her right well the -- has been out to be so it's been great and now we're had a wonderful time account of working hearing. Essentially what the Florida and associates it's fit tossed their congratulations. That's fantastic got to know struck by the way say that. I sit -- sincerity because I think conventional wisdom is that -- The world be going where you wanna write what you -- Most people. Most people. You know would if there if they're lucky united myself extremely lucky to have Mitchell in my life you know. It's like that movie up in the -- Richards Clooney guessing that will be where he's.

It gets tired he'd like settled down and and and have a friend and a companion. And someone that he loves and -- that he can spend time with and that has happened to me so I'm eternally grateful."

" Big game James burger we are seeing. That the transformation. We have seen. That the philosophical. Sig gracious. Roberts new -- this is humble. Game James who work with this guy you know mr. for a long time. Did you ever think you would hear these words coming from Bob Newman. I'm -- on this is starting. I don't ever don't know what. So I don't want to go to an all good I may I may have to go to you me I've got something it's -- what we we have. A married man December -- that he. 2009."

" Robert and Michelle. I just want to know new -- the nerds still around on the nerves are still around and we do have -- material we got nervous your. Ten to two -- we got a great arm and I I. I I have I have -- material. I'll -- Iran -- all of it in its -- the Bruins fans very -- but I have some -- material. That will blow your brains out in terms of the futility. Of the Boston Bruins this year in terms -- According to biscuit in the bashed in like."

" They already know that little bit below that's the no I am not bad being."

" Quite understand. The depth of the futility. That this team has in terms of other Bruins teams of the past and they talk about goals scored and they talk about point production. I mean. The old the mark that they're gonna set this year back to the dinosaur days of -- And there were six teams pre expansion every game was two to one. Three to one. Before the world's changed in 89. I mean these numbers that these guys are gonna put up at the end of this year. --"

" Which you know what they can do and I take what they can do know me they can kill penalties naked don't. I'm talking about I don't I know you can't talk about all fit as Eliza if you wanted to go out one positive thing that the Bruins can do this year that's one thing they're very good head on regulatory -- very good at -- So -- NASCAR fans. Wake up. Because I first of all don't display got about this is crazy night I don't. I -- about you're trying to you're trying to make this connection right in the Op -- connection before you make the connection and images and -- National Hockey League you're a national hockey but the Sonja. You you're gonna have to be you have to stand in today for Gary Bettman going to be Gary Bettman and you're gonna have to explain this league to me. Because I don't understand how the dean of discipline. In the National Hockey League. Comes out and says. I can't suspending guys for being ever."

" Offender of course you okay add that Georgia. It's the dumbest thing I've ever heard it I wanna look at a little look at the incident that happened in in Pittsburgh -- that court and -- that was security at an as yet it's absolutely it was a dirty absent look at defenseless player. No question about this is what the third time this -- all the stock and I get random event event -- I can't. He's a punk you know okay so we've seen that video it's very close to home. -- Marc Savard likely will not play for the rest of the season. And likely will will give the Bruins little chance of making the playoffs because he's probably the only guy that can generate playmaker on offense again even in this dismal year what you're saying that for the entire show. Open casting -- had no -- right. -- This player has been knocked out of action. Talk about where he's going to help wise and headaches and concussion syndrome that he may live with for the rest of the year and the fact that this. Impacts the Bruins for the balance of the season and I have this feeling Michael that they just don't have the stall. To make the playoffs this year even if they do that gonna be fodder for Washington Pittsburgh and wherever right -- plays in the first round but let's stick just take. Two examples. Of two incidents in sports that are happening this week I think some things that are kind of the same. And also a little bit different and that's -- wanna bring up NASCAR. I don't like NASCAR I don't know anything about a followed this story about Carl Edwards. And and I think there's some things that we can look at in terms of that incident. And the incident the hockey interpret those of you don't know those you know who who are not familiar with -- NASCAR. I do what I did this morning because I would I would like a very I don't very good about -- give you the clip you've seen the clip go to YouTube Carl Edwards and inch color would it okay okay now this is a guy that had a rally a problem with his driver. I'm council skew their -- is Edwards drives for the February Roche. Team and they've got to -- so I guess and what happened last week was this guy. Basically ran. This guy off the truck -- Caught up in the year. Traveled. I don't know to a 300 feet and on purpose did not admitted. That he had a beef that they've had a rivalry with this doesn't happen -- happen to him before and it's as his record okay so we've seen the video. It is absolutely frightening. And a miracle. That this driver walked away on her okay so the suspension of the National Hockey League. Was. Not. Because Colin Campbell went by the letter of the law and the letter of the law it is not according to the rules that they now state in the NHL. You can actually Michael. Hit a guy with your shoulder is that -- pat this is only. And next year they're transit on next year you can't do this okay right now they have been powered every single grown in the National Hockey League you can do this right. And not be -- sports so. I didn't just open Mike Richards at the same thing to David literally in the same kinda -- kind of mid ice. Defenseless player hit him in the head knocked him out the guys out for 345 months. No suspension because again it's the letter of the law as a rule in the NHL and Campbell. I should spend Richards. So I can't suspend court even though cook has done this a number of time."

" He's just it's just not a smart statement from Colin Campbell because there is no comparison you've got you've set it at the beginning of your statement."

" I've got a repeat offender year that changed the game altogether in any sport you pick a sport if if if but if a defensive lineman."

" Does something to a quarterback and he has done it before. That you look at him differently than somebody who has no track record it happens that way everywhere in your workplace. If somebody is. Chronically late look at them differently. Then you do somebody who's got who's got what a quote perfect attendance. And they're always there did something happen the same my car broke down you believed them so Colin Campbell we've got it all set up form has got a repeat offender."

" He's got a situation but the league is focused -- for the 2012011. Season no no suspension no fine no nothing stupid."

" So. Decides not to suspend. Not cook because of quote the letter of the law and because -- decision -- fine Richards he cannot suspend. Matt Kirk despite the fact is a repeat offender despite the fact that particular judicial system anywhere in the world. That are repeat offender will be treated more harshly Grady judge jury exactly any person under petition to be in natural apparently. Okay so let's now switch over this kind of thing where this driver Carl Edwards ran this guy up the track. Car spins around 300 feet. Frightening radio and NASCAR president Mike Helton. Does not suspend. -- Because in the NASCAR ratings have plummeted. That earlier in the year that the NASCAR. -- said that at the drivers policed themselves. So in the spirit of allowing the drivers to police themselves the fact that Edwards in the sky causal Bruschi whatever his name is not a how to -- how to row whatever. We can't because. This kind of mitigate. We're gonna have NASCAR be more exciting. Let these drivers gonna take care. Of this themselves have a night for night between Britain and do that now you can't do that so -- questions about both of these situation. Let's flip it around that is no suspension for. For recurrence of -- Is no suspension for Edwards for running this driver right and needs -- you've seen we have edited video look at it has got -- writes if he's in front. Okay have two questions -- Michael yup. Number what. There -- consequences come into play. Let's say for the sake of argument that in that game the other night. That sure was -- the other four. That it was let's say -- JO. That. They hit. Sydney cry all oh yeah there's no doubt where enemy no doubt in my head. Knocked him out. For the season -- season. And Australia possibly what channel its. Number one player. Gold medal recipient. You're across the land Sidney Crosby. Which hit by Norton Asia any of these guys with the same. Exact. Point two let's just say for the sake of argument. At this driver. Has a -- ski. Probably ended sort of got on the wheels. On. And he -- mean. He was hurt he wins he'll. Better yet the car flipped over the guardrail went into the stands injured fifteen or twenty people. -- I did yeah yes they hit the sand hit -- Beijing this is hypothetical. -- on Crosby quote on quote. The -- could have happened to this -- driver at NASCAR my question to you is would Beijing and what what. Punishment have been had Bayesian. I hit Crosby again hypothetical the driver had been killed. The car flown over the retaining wall hit or -- other spectators. -- word -- suspended B would Edwards."

" always you know that you know -- and the answer that -- answer all of course absolutely but this is this is why the NHL. Really missed an opportunity here yesterday. Because you get to set the home for something you'll get to use Matt -- as an example. It's perfect he put himself in that position. It it would be a little unfair. A little bit a little unfair you know somebody has an example. He got the perfect guy the perfect -- He's a repeat offender you've got a situation. That you'll called differently next year duke players a preview get the -- a preview."

" My good buddy action against type of action what got to resolve what and they attach a Japanese -- Crosby had a suspension problem what if the Pittsburgh Penguins had to play the rest this season. Without Sidney Crosby out. So isn't some. Some slog by the way right but he fought winged god but he's not a vet it and he's not he's not surprised he's not a god in Canada. My -- is. Is that those rules about letter of the law that that that Campbell's trying to respond to kind of relax rules change. -- Shoe was on the other foot --"

" But I think in the case of the you and your NASCAR comparison. And I've really I've really come around on this because I used to think. Suspend the guy for the action. Not the result in other words if you if you -- guy if you hit a guy. And and he balls down okay just YouTube you suspend him for the elbow. But I'd I'd never -- before I never believed in suspending someone because of what happened."

" The idea they -- out of the world used to -- you -- you help action is -- not that -- out program. And what and making -- suspension ruling. Based on the action not the consequent announcing if you elbow somebody and -- that he's not he's not that Britain are urging the consequences. That Marc Savard has a concussion and is out the year that the Bruins have lost. The leading scorer and likely will miss the playoffs costing the organization. Millions and millions in revenue. Again. What if Crosby -- But it's different you know they. Don't really like what it so what it's saying it's the same situation and when I get. A situation. Like NASCAR driver had died on the track sit and hit at the same why the congress lineup and the one elements are looming we know."

" Is a double standard actually is a double standard with superstar players and in every sport but I'm saying if if you elbow -- any -- the ice and then he comes back to skate another shift. And you elbow guy and he is you get them just in the right way he's -- out for the season. I used to -- that that that the suspension should be the same is not your fault so to speak. If you're just like if you're playing again I see."

" Your point if you play a game I Singapore it's almost like he had Jim you're cheated on all his wife and a septa route nine women. There got an action when anybody care. The answer is probably right but Tiger Woods being a celebrity that changed everything it -- so that's that's I think that you're you're right about that the act it's still the same. People -- were not care about Jim York. Use an example they certainly care about Tiger Woods should care about -- supply I love your right -- it's your league and you -- explain this link to me."
