Good for Thomas. You and I have no idea what his life outside of hockey is like. I respect his decision and even admire it because he realizes sports aren't the most important thing in life and is able to walk away from something he loves in order to improve other aspects of his life.

Sounds like he has his priorities straight to me.

Sounds like he's a jackass too me.

If I were to walk off a job while still under contract to pursue other interests outside of my job I'd be immediatly terminated and most likely not allowed back to wherever I am. In this instance him choosing to not retire and not to play leaves the team with the burden of his contract on the books and a roster spot they can't fill because he's taking it up. It's selfish and a bit retarded if you ask me. The "me me me" attitude he's showing right now really doesn't help either.

This is how he is going to make a claim for team USA, by being as American as possible.

Thomas is a nutcase. Hell of a run last year. No chance he is team USA's starter. Why would they put a quitter on their team anyways.

"I don't say, don't play games or cricket or so forth. By all means play and enjoy them, giving thanks to Jesus for them.
Only take care that games don't become an idol to you as they did to me. What good will it do to anybody in the next world to have been the best player that ever has played? And, then, think of the difference between that and winning people to Jesus." CT Studd

BTW, he had a meltdown the other day and booted anyone off his FB page that didn't agree with him.

Fantastic, what a fud.

I hope someone uses this against him when he talks about wanting to play for Team USA the drunk fud.
