Aww Johnny :( Come home baby! Come home to mama! We'll go surfing, and drink all the time and go clubbing, and I can probably find you a team in need of a goalie! How the fuck can RUSSIANS fire someone for being drunk?! And I ask that without a hint of irony, being related to quite a few Russian drunks! That'd be like firing a redneck for banging his cousin, or firing a Czech for wearing manpris, sandals, and a non matching violently coloured top! DON'T HATE THE PLAYER, HATE THE GAME!

I'm v sad. I must go drink now. Oh wait. I'm at work. I must go wish they sold beer in the vending machine. AGAIN.

Hargh! (at your post, not John's situation) It sounds like a deleted scene from Slapshot.

This is sad! He needs help! Probably his last chance and he screwed it up.
