Thoughts On Bobby Orr

Description
Yesterday, Bobby Orr made some controversial comments about an extremely sensitive topic. It sparked up a pretty big reaction. Today, I came across many people who said that Bobby Orr did not deserve his Hall Of Fame induction and that he needs to be removed from it.

To me, it seems like people are judging his hockey abilities based off his view on a particular issue. There should be no denial that Bobby Orr was an exceptional player, and that was what got him into the Hall.

Do you guys think Bobby Orr deserves to be removed from the Hall?

I meant I saw a lot of people on social media who suggested that, so I thought it was a major topic.

Well, I live in Boston, and it’s not even a thing. I’m not even sure I believe that you saw it on social media. It’s such a nothing thing.

Social media. Where you find the great thinkers. ?. It’s not a thing.

The “i’m offended” crowd need to be kicked off the planet.

How can anyone who has been listening/watching Don Cherry for 35 years or so, NOT think he isn't a bigot. Not that I entirely disagree with his last Coaches Corner comment.
Sure Cherry has done many constructive things in his years as broadcaster, but at times he has been a ranting bigot. Sometimes the 2% verbal garbage negates the other 98%, and gets you fired.

His comments were not at all controversial and anyone who thinks he deserves his HOF place taken away is an idiot and should talk about hockey or politics ever again

While I don't agree with Orr's comment. But as you just said he is sticking up for an old friend and I do understand that. Seriously you have issues if you think one of the greatest defensemen to ever play should be removed from the Hall for a comment he made about a friend 40yrs after he played his last game.

You don’t agree with it? He said he knows the guy very well and he isn’t a bigot. What is there to disagree with? Can this guy just delete this ridiculous thread?
