Yes. And so are football and basketball players.

Yeah, well, in fairness to the twins, they have the mental capacity of 5 year olds and have been treated that way their whole careers. The fault lies elsewhere. Who was supervising the twins on this flight?? Hmmm??? I hate it when parents don't make an attempt to control their kids in flight.

Someone is upset that the Leafs missed the playoffs. AGAIN.

Then maybe you should research how much the twins do in the community in Vancouver.
Including giving a million of their money to children's hospital here.
Your comment stinks like a Canucks hater for no reason other than they are more successful than my team.

Sigh. I see we can't poke fun at anyone or anything anymore.

My apologies for offending you and the kids.

Last I checked; the 'kids' won back to back Art Ross trophies, and there was a Hart trophy in there as well. How's Toronto doing with all that hardware?

But indeed, the hockey players in Vancouver have donated millions of $ and thousands of hours of time into Vancouver infrastructure (hospitals, schools etc).

I am okay with someone poking fun in a sarcastic or light hearted manner.
Usually those comments are accompanied by a smiley winking or sticking out its tongue (like my dig at the Leafs).
Your comment seemed to be serious and a bit out of line considering what the twins do for Vancouver.

Well, I guess I thought that comparing grown adults who play professional hockey to children who need supervision on a flight, was enough to know it was a joke and a dig. Either way, lots of hockey players do lots of charitable work for their respective communities. So do football, basketball and baseball players.

Anyway, back on topic (sorry for my part in derailing the thread), I wonder how many Jetz aircraft they re-configure during the summer? I know that once the hockey season is done, some are reconfigured to normal A320 configs.
