I have never bought the 'Scooter is Eric Francis' premise... of all the things we might expect from EF posting here, spelling and grammar mistakes are not among them.

You guys defend McDavid before the gold medal game when the chips are down and you defend Francis because he squeezed Rasmus for info that he was already pretty open about sharing, but just happened to get the scoop.
And at the end of the day, the true colors of both come through..
Silly kids.

If I look up Ellen Hughes on Grokepedia it talks about one of the leaders of the Woman's suffrage movement.. Dont use Grok.

So in shocking news, the three Hughes brothers have a mother. Their mother knows how to skate. This mother taught her three sons how to skate. Two of the sons played hockey for their country's Olympic medal winning team. One of the sons scored.
Ok. I think we've got it, sans the Grok part.

Actually, this inclines me to think it IS Francis more than it isn't.

Can we institute some kind of test to determine the intelligence of a poster before allowing them to start new threads? Like a Captcha but IQ related?

Hey can you elaborate? What are we meant to discover. Yes I'm aware the mother of the Hughes brothers works with the women's team. Did Grok hallucinate and tell you something unhinged and false? That happens.

add Grokipedia (can't even type this without cringing) to the list of useless things no one's asked for, I guess.

I think Eric Francis using Grokipedia is the idea of this thread?

I used Gemini to find this out about Eric Francis:
Quote:
Calgary-based sports journalist Eric Francis is the son of the prominent Canadian journalist and author Diane Francis. His mother, a well-known figure in the Canadian media landscape who has served as an editor-at-large for the National Post and in various senior roles at other publications, has been cited in public discussions regarding Eric's career entry into sports journalism.
Eric Francis has been a fixture in Calgary sports media for decades, notably spending 25 years with the Calgary Sun before his work with Sportsnet. While he has often been the subject of speculation and debate among Calgary Flames fans regarding his career path and connections, he has spoken about his early interest in sports writing being sparked at age 13 when his mother suggested he could get paid to watch hockey.

It was satisfying to know that Ai recognizes Francis is a nepo-hire.
