He creates an illusory picture based on a distorted version of reality then offers up the whole package as undeniable fact.
He tells us Bobby Hull is the greatest passer in the game. He then tell us other and the insinuation is less well-informed studiers of the game might say Wayne Gretzky. I suggest most people would say Wayne Gretzky, and of those who didn't there's a wide gap between Gretzky and Hull filled by at least 20 other players.
He follows this uninformed statement of warped personal opinion as fact with a distorted analogy based on Hull's quote "'I don't pass the puck to where they are � I pass the puck to where they're going to be."
Here's the problem with that. From a global warming theory perspective it isn't 'where there going to be'. It's where they might possibly be if we ignore all evidence of what's happened before in a natural set of occurences.
Bobby Hull is 84th on the all-time NHL assists record.

Even if you add his WHA stats, he's still only pretty much tied for 18th with Phil Housely in NHL stats. Even with this combined stat Gretzky had more than a thousand assists than Bobby Hull did.

Hull wasn't even the number 1 passer in the much weaker WHA.
Hull was the best passer in Hockey in the same version of reality where Al Gore invented the internet.
