University cross country/track coach in Canada is on par with your local garbage collector in terms of power.

Lol, good one!

Canadian law and precedent says your opinion isn’t worth a damn - see Graham James case.

You, Jimmy and Fred need to walk your ignorant asses out of here

You’re not looking for truth. You’re looking to save your idol DST by engaging in victim blaming.

You did not answer the questions. Dave is not my idol. We are no way close to being at the bottom of this.

Why don't you summarize Graham James in point form in an objective way.

Don't call me ignorant, I'm looking for the real truth. You are having an emotional reaction based on conjecture.

..do you not have the Internet in whatever pedophile defenders clubhouse you hang out in?

Graham James sexually abused multiple players on the junior hockey teams he coached. He was a predator who took advantage of the fact that he literally held the keys to their careers in his hands.

Because you want to defend DST at all costs, you are apparently blind or too stupid to understand how predators work, even though their MO is the same time and time again. They seek out positions of power, find vulnerable victims (family sadness in MB's case, young kids away from home in GJ's case), and take advantage of the situation while presenting themselves externally as model citizens, which in turn makes it unlikely anyone would believe they were capable of such abuse.

It happens over and over and over and over again. It's the same damn script.

I notice you don’t ask why Dave was trying to seduce a 16/17 year old.

Your questions are specifically pointed to take blame away from Dave. You obviously have no understanding how trauma works, since your questions are loaded with the expectation that a trauma victim will behave in a specific way.

Fred, time to stop flogging that dead horse

Why did her dad go to the University Pres instead of the police?

Why did her dad not tell her to write love letters to a 38 year old man?

Why was living in a house 3 doors from Dave instead of at home?

If she was a teenager why wasn't she being supervised by her father?

If she went to Homewood for treatment for problems why did they not call the police when they heard her story?

Do you think Jerry Sandusky is innocent? Because there are the same stupid ass questions his moronic defenders asked.

Fred Urie: employing soviet and fascist tactics to discredit someone.

Classic.

Tunt, doesn't answer the questions. Uses fascist verbiage when it has no answers.

What are the psychological dynamics of her writing love letters to him? Hypnotic trance?

" to discredit an opponent's position by charging them with hypocrisy without directly refuting or disproving their argument. "

I'm not charging you with hypocrisy. I'm charging you with having no facts, and no answers. And you don't have an argument to attack. What you have is vapid cliches.

By the way Fred, there isn’t any evidence that she was writing love letters to Dave. Plenty of evidence that he was writing them to her.

Yikes, the trolling in this thread is Weinsteinesque.

Fred, we see you and Jimmy trying to make desperate excuses. It's not going to work since DST really went waaaaay out of line. Sure, you knew a different DST, but that's what you (and many others) thought you knew.

You never know what's really happening behind closed doors.

Please stop trying to make excuses for him, it doesn't legitimize any wrongful actions. It sounds more like victim shaming than useful context.

Hey douchebag - did you even read the article? He was the one writing love letters to her.

Few things:

1. I didn't answer the questions because they are not relevant to the issue at hand. Coaches can not, by law, have sex with their athletes (especially when the athletes are under the age of 18). This has been settled in 1996 by the Supreme court of Canada.

2. I didn't answer your questions because only MB and DST know the answers to them, but again - see #1.

3. Are you having a stroke? "Uses fascist verbiage when it has no answers." doesn't make any sense.

4. Again, he was the one writing love letters, not her.

Go back to your birds.

fred is really enjoying his 15 minutes of fame .

finally after all these years people are paying attention to him and he didn't even have to show them his training logs.

it's such a pity he had to resort to supporting a sexual predator to get it though.

looks like we found ourselves another attention seeker.

So I guess you believe that Sheldon Kennedy and Theo Fleury should’ve known better than get involved with Graham James?

Weak troll 1.5/10

Graham James case does not relate to this. James actually held power over people in a sport where even average professionals can make millions of dollars. The average speed river olympian will...well ask reid how it worked out...and hes a success story...Reid probably has a lifetime of memories that none of us can compete with, but financially he would be better off if he worked at the local DMV the last 15 years.

Tunt you sound like a former ofsaa hero with a chip on his shoulder. You should go buy a sports car, maybe a lotus, get it repossessed but tell everyone you wrapped it around a pole.

Jimbo - not all decision making for young athletes revolves around making "millions of dollars". For young hockey players they dream of making the NHL because it is the pinnacle of their chosen sport. They want to be where their idols are. For young runners it is the same; they want to make the olympics because that is where the people they look up to are. In fact, I doubt any high school athlete is pursuing their sport for the sole reason of making money.

As for me; I'm a she, not a he (you do know that not everyone that uses the internet is born with a penis?). I've never competed at ofsaa - the country is larger than your little ontario bubble.

That's not the only metric of power, you disingenuous scum.

Did Jerry Sandusky have power over the future earning power over little kids? Did Larry Nassar? Do priests?

No. But in all cases, the abusers were people who carefully curated a public image, one that made it impossible for anyone to believe they could be an abuser. They were pillar of the community, and experts in their field.

It's literally the same script every single time. And DST is a piece of garbage whose life deserves to be ruined.
