Tough Guy: The Bob Probert Story

I quality of documentary is good. Towards the end they turn it into a sob story though. I don't feel bad for him. He chose a brutal sport that comes with consequences. He made terrible choices over and over again. All of these high ratings seem to be coming from those who love hockey. Get over it.

Violence Drugs Passion Hockey.

Change the demeaning music on this documentary and you have a different story. They demonized the man here people! This is hockey culture and if you don't like it go watch the NBA. Probert was an enforcer and fought for his teammates. This is part of the game no matter how much they try to rid it and it is the reason it has such a hard core following. To deny the violence is to deny our ourselves of our love of competition. Hockey is our last great sophisticated competition. Don't let the media take it away.

Probert was nothing more than a Goon. I have absolutely ZERO sympathy for him. He brought it all on himself. Blaming other teammates for making him drink is ridiculous. He was highly talented and wasted it. There are kids that would kill to get in the NHL and here he is throwing it all away. It's hard to feel bad for a guy who's own commentary is just full of "Eff it. Not my fault. People are jerks." He is the jerk. Don't expect to feel any sympathy for Probert. His own death was his fault. Sorry - I care much less for Probert after watching this documentary.

If you enjoy raw documentaries that don't hold back on the good, the bad and the ugly... PRESS. PLAY. NOW!

This is one heavy hitter you won't soon forget.
