I like how you used IV instead of the proper I've. It shows you really are a doctor by using a medical term.

I think you're interpreting what I said backwards. Peters' salary was $1.6 million, so if the Flames pay him less, Carolina is on the hook for the difference.

I thought he was making 1.6M, making the shortfall 100k if Calgary offered 1.5M.

The degree conferred upon me indicates a certain level of education, basically the highest in a particular field of study.

Take that for what you will, but I will say that it is particularly disrespectful to not recognize that I earned the title of Doctor.

Do you have a PhD?.. it doesn't have to be in medicine, but it must be a doctorate to call yourself a doctor. It's offensive to those who have put in the work and time to become a doctor. 4 years of chiropractor school does not make you a doctor anymore than I am a doctor of environmental science.

No intent to offend, just one guys opinion based on what I believe are facts.

I'm pretty sure he wouldn't be discussing this if he didn't have a PhD.

Who needs permission when you’re a Flames fan?

After what we’ve been through over the past couple of seasons I’m shocked more people don’t strat off their posts with “Hi, my name is {insert name here}, and I’m an alcoholic- er, Flames fan.”

All I got from this is that Bill Peters may or may not be an alcoholic doctor.

I'm not calling myself a doctor, I am one. If you have a problem with that, take it up with the people who agree that it's the proper term. I don't make the rules.
