For those of you that don't know me (but you will in time), I give credit where credit is due and always man up if I f'ed up. I always shoot from the hip, even though I'm no George Washington. I'm writing this post to reaffirm our mission here at Paqman&Bull: we write with integrity and bring you great original pieces through our opinions and thoughts. We also offer you the best of the Internet (according to us anyways) by posting links and vids with full credits.
Having said that, a strange cosmic event went down. I published a post about the rash of concussions in the NHL and compiled an NHL All-Concussion Team on December14th which hit the blog at 7:35 pm. I never read any articles or blog posts about the subject matter I'm writing about on a particular day. On that day, I stayed away from everything NHL. To my surprise, Harrison Mooney over at Puck Daddy wrote about the exact same thing, had the exact same name for his team AND had the exact same line-up, including shifting Giroux to the right wing. Mooney beat me to the punch by publishing 2 hours earlier. I want to make it clear that I didn't lift his work, didn't read it beforehand and that it was all a coincidence. I do think it's rad that I was on the same wave length as a Puck Daddy blogger and that makes me feel nice. Now the Globe and Mail on the other hand, they straight up robbed us!
Our goal here is to keep it as real and legit as possible. Our expectation from you, the reader, is to keep us honest. We appreciate you taking the time to read our work and we hope to continue with P&B for a long time.
