Dear hockey fan,
Welcome to our site! If you’ve found us, odds are you’re a Crunch fan, or you’ve heard of the numerous ways we can creatively use the word fuck. Either way, we’re glad to have you here.
So, let’s get right into it, shall we? We’re a Crunch fan site. This site is maintained by three fans who find a lot of enjoyment in Crunch hockey. We’re dedicated, loyal, and passionate…probably just like you. We run this site with the intent of providing an online presence for devoted Crunch fans, and to provide thought-provoking, stimulating conversation about all things Crunch. As you will see, sometimes our conversations run into other areas that have very little to do with the Crunch, or hockey at all. That’s the beauty of this site. You never know what you might get on any given day, but it’s always unique.
Now, what can you expect? Well, we don’t have absolute and open access to the inner workings of the locker room. We don’t have “sources” or “insiders” to deliver big news. We offer a fan’s perspective, pretty much. We’re the voice of the guys in the hallway at intermission. We’re also the voice of the guys who used to email and call Bobby on game nights. On the odd occasion, we’ll break the big news stories before the paid “professional” (and I use that term loosely) in town does. Mostly though, we’re here to talk hockey and whatever else comes to mind.
That’s pretty much who we are. With that in mind, let’s talk for a minute about what we expect from you, the reader:
1. We don’t ask for much. This isn’t an issue of The New Yorker or the Atlantic Monthly, but if you feel the urge to comment on a post, we expect it to be well written. Knowing that the words there, their, and they’re all have different uses is important. Same with your and you’re. We all have opinions, and we all think that our opinion is important. If you want others to take you seriously, make it look like they should.
2. This isn’t the syracuse.com forum. If you’re looking to troll for a response, want to fight a poster, or whatever it else people get up to over there, just leave now. It’s fine to disagree, but we keep it civil. All comments are moderated and approved before they are posted.
3. Have something to say. Nobody wants to read ten posts from ten different people that all say the same thing. Add your own spin to a topic, but be original. Being original is important, as is
3a. Be funny when you can. As you’ll see by looking through old posts, we try to bring the funny as much as we can. Sometimes we fail, but we always try. Remember, this is AHL hockey. This isn’t anything of global importance. Have fun with it. If you can find the humor in the animated gif below, you’ll be fine:
That’s pretty much it. If you’re new, poke around and check out the archives. If you’re an old timer, you know what to expect here already, and be nice to the new posters. We’re still fending off lawsuits from the last batch, and Alex never found the hamster, and I don’t even want to talk about Dave’s canoe paddle. Worst initiation ever.
