I don't care how many buildings he owns or how many posts I have. What fresca posted wasn't even borderline. He made explicit remarks that stated indigenous culture was worthless, paid for by taxpayers and used mocking language about their culture/art. In the context of a very wonderful closing ceremony lauded across the community. That he helps out people he knows in specific context doesn't means he isn't a red hot racist in others. And the evidence on that is clear. Maybe he does forgive rent for certain people. Maybe he doesn't. But he does spew hate on the internet about indigenous people.
Also it now appears to be deleted so it looks like fresca agrees it was egregious and wrong and took it down. Now make an apology like should've been done ten days ago.

Absolutely this.

The opening ceremonies (on the CC FB) were also brilliant; a member of each team got a star blanket (Einarson, Koe, Hodgson etc). I also agree racism has no place in the sport (or anywhere) especially since there is a movement to make the sport more inclusive.
Gerry is doing the sport no favors by not ridding the site of bigots. I could care less about how many houses someone's sold, racists don't deserve a platform.

I’ve suspected that for years. Or they at least live in the same house.

Seeing as Gerry just posted a strong statement against sexual harassment, I'd say the days are finally numbered gor a misogynistic troll like you.
I've read countless posts from you over the last decade degrading and demeaning female athletes on this site. If Gerry has any sincerity in his post, you'll shortly be banned from this site. And rightfully outed as well.
And hopefully he does the same to your racist minion Fresca.

You have your own blog. Why do you find the need to come on here? Do you have some kind of fetish. When you post play by play of a curling match on here, I would think you don’t have any other platform to spread your “ knowledge “?????? Just another lie to add to the pile.??

Irony just died.
ML lashing out accusing posters of mental illness is not cool. Classic DARVO.
It’s a shame that ML and fresca aren’t capable of self reflection, learning and doing better.
It doesn’t surprise me that Gerry isn’t inclined to remove the racist, sexist, misogynistic posters, but it’s frustrating after his recent statement.
At the very least make the ignore function work so we can bypass the offensive posters.

Hitting ignore does nothing to de-platform racists and mysognists. I run Rockheads! on FB and bigots get banned, end of. That's how you take care of them. Don't want to get harshed on? Don't be a bigot, it's that simple.

I totally agree with you Meaghan.
Calling them out accomplishes nothing in this case because they refuse to acknowledge their abhorrent behaviour. They don’t want to do better. It doesn’t appear that Gerry is willing to deplatform them.
Scrolling past or hitting ignore is a bandaid solution that doesn’t get to the root of the problem.

Exactly. Doing anything other than banning them is sweeping under the rug. Silence is compliance.

Yes, its obvious Mr. Geurts is financially challenged and unable to properly moderate this board. Thats why I started my own curling blog over a year ago and won't permit sick criminals like you to participate.
Too late for an inhuman automaton like yourself to get the help you so obviously need. Keep posting hate & venom - Gerry won't do anything about it.
Others might?
Nice attempt at gaslighting legend. Btw I have seen your blog and, like your posts here, its drivel.
You've been a pestilence on this site now for over a decade, your time is done.

I am really enjoying all these posts about team changes. Not. Does anyone know why Gunnar played with 3 at DeKalb? Bottcher will need a Dfor the slam in Jan. Do you think it will be a permanent third?

It appears that all the legends posts have been removed.

Sportsnet/CdnPress had a few tidbits in a recent article.
Moulding says he hopes to be in Brier as a player.
Gushue will decide by end of next week if he's playing in NFLD playdowns at end of Jan.
Homan has entered last chance qualifier for 3 spots in Ont. Can't see her missing out.

Yup. He announced on his Facebook page that both Legend and Fresca are gone.
Famous last words?

I didn't notice Casey was missing until the picture with the gigantic $11,000 cheque though I did notice Wozniak in the house when Jason threw - in the only game I saw. Casey has more of a free agent blood than Fry - I wonder if he is looking for greener pastures. I thought that they had a pretty good blend going.

Why always the negative? Maybe not everyone can get 10 weeks vacation to curl Maybe he had post trials commitments. Always negative responses here. Good gravy! He’s home in pei with a young family. Are points and dollars more important in the real world?
