Sad, but true.<BR/><BR/>Considering the fact that he's earned such a salary and his best days are behind him, he should have retired this off-season.<BR/><BR/>Then he could dissolve into the Sports Infamy Bermuda Triangle with Barry Bonds, Mark McGwire, Marty McSorley and the corpse of Ty Cobb.jamestobrienhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16607553979777452973noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-27850362.post-85705838347833829422008-10-14T14:13:00.000-07:002008-10-14T14:13:00.000-07:00I'm a fan of Bertuzzi,He punched someone who did n...I'm a fan of Bertuzzi,<BR/><BR/>He punched someone who did not want anything to do with him.<BR/><BR/>Yeah he went about it the wrong way, however, if Moore hadn't cowarded as soon as she felt the punch and went down, allowing everyone to trumple him, he might be playing still, or maybe not, did you even know he was a hockey player before this happened?<BR/><BR/>I didn't.<BR/><BR/>Go Bertuzzi!!!!Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-27850362.post-58179240291516189902008-10-14T13:47:00.000-07:002008-10-14T13:47:00.000-07:00If Bert scored 40 goals last season I would have f...<I>If Bert scored 40 goals last season I would have forgotten all about Moore, trust me.</I><BR/><BR/>I feel like a guy who has already forgotten Moore; I certainly didn't hold that against Bertuzzi last year.<BR/><BR/>No, the only reasons I hate Bertuzzi are because of his salary and of his play last year.

(I still can't stand him though)<BR/><BR/>If Bertuzzi were a 50 goal - 125 point player, people would get back behind that guy. Especially if he were scoring for their favorite team.<BR/><BR/>If Bert scored 40 goals last season I would have forgotten all about Moore, trust me.Mike in OChttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01831933744838119160noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-27850362.post-2657044498651955702008-10-14T13:09:00.000-07:002008-10-14T13:09:00.000-07:00Hmm, I don't think Bertuzzi will ever be able to g...Hmm, I don't think Bertuzzi will ever be able to gain my respect. I try to forgive people...just not sure I'm there yet with Bertuzzi and if I ever will be. I consider him a cancer and it still makes me sad. Before the incident, the Canucks were one of my favorite teams to watch, he ruined that. Then he was on the Wings which was horrible for me. I wish he would just retire, he is a shell of his former self and really more of a distraction than an impact player at this point.hockeychichttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13166959347224883175noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-27850362.post-25594154806925685682008-10-14T10:14:00.000-07:002008-10-14T10:14:00.000-07:00I wrote this on March 12th last year.If i had to a...<A HREF="http://www.blogger.com/posts.g?blogID=3711906906787819455&label=Bertuzzi&searchType=ALL&txtKeywords=Bertuzzi&numPosts=50" REL="nofollow">I wrote this</A> on March 12th last year.<BR/><BR/>If i had to amend my feelings, i might say that I may not truly forgive him until Steve Moore finally gets his day in court.
