Why can't we just let sleeping dogs lay?

Seriously... the Bertuzzi-Moore incident is going to be one of those neverending stories. While the movie was about the adventures of Bastian and Atreyu in a fantastical world, this story is about how Todd, in one dumb ass move, sucker punched Steve into a world w/out hockey.

Let me start off saying that I, in no way, condone what Bert did, but at the same time, hockey is a "violent" sport and emotions some times run wild. Plus, there's the whole fact that an additional 3 or 4 ppl jumped onto Bert, who was on top of Moore - so who really knows what caused the injury...

I digress... I thought that this story would, by now, have died off. We had the case brought to Supreme Court and to civil court in Colorado. Both have been settled or thrown out. Now w/ the betting scandal surrounding Gretsky, the lime light has been taken off Bert. But not for long...

CBC is reporting that Steve Moore and his family has filed a $15 million civil suit against Bert in Ontario. If they can't get to him in other courts, why not try Ontario... where the incident didn't take place...

I guess you've gotta give them props for being persistent. On the other hand... talk about timing. Why now? Why when all eyes are on the Olympics? Are they just hungry for media attn or do they want to ensure that Bert is continued to be painted in a bad light so if the team does win gold, he won't be seen as a "hero?" Either way, I'm sick of this shite...
