Avery Makes No Apologies
Given the opportunity by Sportsnet to speak his side on his recent controverial comments, Avery makes no apologies:
(I apologize for not having a link to the transcript of the interview as the segment just aired. I will post the transcript later if I can find it.)
... Everyone is entitled to an opinion...On his comment regarding French-Canadians:
... I wouldn't have said it if I didn't mean it... I wish it didn't get much attention as it did...On his ensuing apology:
... I didn't apologize for what I said... it was an apology if I offended anyone...On the alleged racial slur directed to Edmonton Oiler George Laraques:
... That's just something between George and me... I think he just wants to be on TV...The Sportsnet Hockeycentral panel admitted to appreciating Avery for being candid, though they acknowledged that a fine line exists being candid and being a boor. In my own personal opinion, Avery is a boor.
