hTey said, “Would you rather have him had been, like, this tremendous massive success? You own it, so you benefit financially. Or would you rather have him die, so that you say you did it for 14 seasons, 12 years.”

I said, “I think I’d rather have him die at it.” That means you don’t need the money. I’d rather have him die at it. Anyway, but with amazing creativity and determination, you’re bypassing the corrupt establishment.

plan the lottery for 2020

It feels like they've been here for 14 years each. Larry had that one nice season with Foligno and Gio, and Girgs had his Teddy year. Other than that, meh.

Can't we just be done with them? My God. I get that it's ultimately sort of insignificant, but just turn the damn page

The weather was just… It was beautiful in one way. They learned it was my real hair that day, because I was drenched. Well, that is the one good thing. I ran, and they learned it’s my hair.

Because I’ve been through every windstorm, sandstorm. Let’s go over here. Let’s go. This one, that one. This desert. Let’s go to this ocean, and get out of the plane, sir. The wind is blowing at about 70 miles an hour.

I said, “Boy, it’s gotta be… It’s gotta be mine.” But, uh, but we’ve seen it all. We’ve seen it all.

I’m representing everybody. I do, I represent everybody. I fully understand liberal. I fully understand Democrat. We want to get along. We want to make sure that everybody loves each other, if that’s possible. And maybe, I really believe it is.

The people that have the talent are the people that we deal with. And it’s true, and some of you are extraordinary. I can’t say everybody, but no, but some of you are extraordinary. The crap you think of is unbelievable. Unbelievable.

But I tell you what, technologically, it’s unbelievable what they think up. Even Dan and I, when we sat with you-know-who, at Twitter. Number one. We talked about certain things. He said, “Yeah, well we could do this, this this.” I said, that’s really great. You know, this is incredible stuff. China will admit there’s nobody like these brains.

During high school, I played junior hockey and still hold two league records: most time spent in the penalty box; and I was the only guy to ever take off his skate and try to stab somebody.

My buddy shot me a text saying he’s hearing Skunks name come up. Anyone else hearing chatter about him? I wouldn’t think he’d be someone GMJB would ship out
- Up2nuthun



If you ask Gerbe, he will agree with you.

I would have to imagine that anyone not named Jack, Jeff or Dahlin are available for the right price.

Whatever that price is, has yet to be determined.

If I had to use my lizard brain, I would assume that getting 23 would require a significant overpayment.

Girgs needs to beat out

Skinner
Olofsson
Johnsson
Vesey
Sheary

Even if he Johnsson isn’t a left winger. He needs to beat out the rest.

Larry has Sobotka and E rod as major competition. Asplund is a dark horse.

I can easily see each of those players traded before the regular season. Baptiste type move.

The concerning issue, what number will Henri Jokiharju wear with Girgensons back next year. Troubling times indeed.

Definitely forgot about Ristos long lost cousin and knowing how to spell his name. So yeah, add him to the center depth conversation.

I’ll stick with R2C4 or R2C3 depending on Botts adding depth. It’s easier than Ruotsalainen.... I guess we could call him Rooster. We have a joker. And a skunk. And a clank... Why not a rooster....

3 7ths are basically 1 1/2 5ths.
