Yeah i dunno man. His antics set the refs off and innocent bystanders were collateral damage I guess....as for the other stuff. Going good. Money and life and such happened so have to finish next year. Still in school taking classes towards a BSc. Have a job with AHS however so I've been in the union for a while now.

Hmmmmmm. You are blogging weird hours lately Hendo. Is everything OK? Are you sleeping good? Getting enough fiber?
- leonkennedy


Yeah, I've actually been busy at work and it's legitimately horrible. Most of the time I can spend 75-85% of my time writing but this has been a tough week and a bit. I'm hoping soon I can get back to normal.

3 out of 5equals Dynasty eh?

Dynasty teams don't dismantle their teams after they win, thus NOT a dynasty. Move along

EDIT: it's 3 in 6 years by the way ('10-'15)

Oh don't get me wrong. Blog when you want. You don't owe anybody a regularly scheduled blog time. Just noticed a change and got concerned. Figured you were horrified by the JB incident, but could have been something worse like you got mad cow disease or something.

They do in the say cap era. Or wait. You are going with the traditional version of dynasty that doesn't apply in this day and age? Suck it up. You guys got two. But a real dynasty team dominates the regular season like Chicago and doesn't win a cup then poop the bed the next year.

Awesome that a couple major contributors to your two cups were such giant druggies and wife beaters.

I actually missed out on seeing anything before the thread was shut down and the Bannening® had already begun. I was informed after the fact that things had gotten a wee bit out of control.

All good hendo. You didn't need to see any of it and be glad you didn't cause if you had commented even you would have been banned....
On a more personal note. Have you made it to Rexall to see McJesus practice yet? And Sekera signing for same as Petry plus the picks Mact got for him has to be a win right?

Are positions in the union filled based on hours worked? For my wife, she can take someones position if tbey have less hours if she gets bumped from her position. It's kinda (frank)ed but that's how it is.

Won in 10. That is year zero. Add 5. 3 in 5. But thanks for that being your only rebuttal to the post. Makes you look like something I won't post.

Well thanks for keeping us entertained. Not too sure if there is a much more thankless job.

Not sure if AHS and BC are the same but it's based on seniority and job postings and such. Ect. It could be the same here I so.some aspects as there but I'm casual so pick up a lot of shifts and keep myself busy between multiple jobs. No kids and no wife makes my hours more flexible I suppose.

Haven't made it to practice. Just can't get out of work. The Sekera for Petry money is frustrating in some ways but Sekera should be a great addition to the roster and I'm happy Chia turned the picks into something the team needed.

I think McDavid is obviously huge for the Oilers. Bigger than Hall was or even Yak. Yak had a huge social media following leading up to his rookie year. Connor will very likely do to the Oilers what he did to Eerie. Make them Contenders in a few years. The Oilers have had a few years with no centers other than RNH and when he was injured we even had to rely on Smyth to take draws hoping his mullet would be distracting at the dot. We now are at a place where we have two first line caliber centers and maybe 3 in LD. All this leading up to the new arena. Someone will come up with a name for the Lowe Era of the Oilers and it will be witty but this is an all new franchise.

Sekera is by far the better player. You guys did well in that regard.


So what's happening with work that's so crazy? You're in education right?

Well then it all worked out (or so we hope) so is better than had mac t signing petry long term....but I hate using hindsight to look smart so I'm not going there.
Happy to read your blogs whenever you post em hendo, no time of day required.....nicest thing is no Iggysbff or Jero trashing you anymore.
