Going Dark


This will be my last transmission until March. I am going down to communist paradise city, where the grass is green and the girls are pretty, comrade. For some reason, down in Cuba, hockey ain't all that big. So I am going on a diplomatic mission to spread the word of the Maple Leaf to the masses, or atleast to my best when not engaged in the wonders that come with the words all inclusive, only golf course on the island and free everything.
Unfortunately, as I have mentioned before, I shall miss the much anticipated trade-deadline goodness that is soon to explode. So by the time I return the dust will have settled, coming home will be almost as exciting as leaving.

Catch you all on the flip side.

Eat It Roaming Knome

I never miss an opportunity to be silly or ridiculous, especially in exotic locals. So, since I am going away next week and need something to keep me occupied so I don't go batty thinking about the trade deadline. Thus I give you a preview to the first chapter of "Traveling Tie Dom-Key". Tie who-what you ask? Well Tie Dom-Key is my Toronto Maple Leaf Player key chain, who I always thought looked like Tie Domi, and...well...is a key chain. Yeah, I'm clever. The idea is to take photos of Tie Dom-Key in exotic and hopefully comical/compromising situations. Heres a preview picture of the little fella, on my desk. SCANDELOUS!


There he is, right in the middle, looking all smug. Right next to my Tie Domi bobble head (I was a pretty big Tie fan if you can't tell) and my current reading material (as suggested by one Sherry) .
This will either be the best, or dumbest thing I have ever done. Either way, I look forward to it.

Found this little ditty on youtube this morning, not the biggest fan of the music used, and some of the footage is a little grainy, but damned if its not awesome.

Wait For It

It is quite anxious being a Leaf fan these days. We have a team that doesn't seem too keen on giving up goat, beating teams they have no buisness beating, and then there is Stamkos watch 2008 / chop cut rebuild. I have come to a simple conclusion of what I am to do in said situation. I am going to cheer for my team. If they win, I cheer because that probably makes Mats worth an extra first rounder come the 26th. If they lose, I cheer because we are one step closer to seeing the scariest line not yet assembled, Tlusty / Stamkos / Earl in 2010.
I have also chosen not to hold any grudges should players in question not waive their NTC's. I mean, can you blame them for wanting to remain Toronto Maple Leafs? I can't. It is the top of all my boyhood dreams and getting put in a situation where I have to choose to give that up, I don't know if i could, not even for a Stanley Cup.
The trade tension continues to build in Leaf Nation. Every Leaf fan worth their salt thinks Fletch has something epic brewing, me included. But what? It's like Christmas when you're 8, only Christmas could happen at any time up to and including the 25th. The anticipation is near heart attack inducing. Even worse for me since I'll be out of country from the 22nd onward and will not return till early March with no way of getting hockey news. Thank god its an all inclusive resort or I'd go mad thinking about the crazy wonderful things Fletch has pulled off.

Cheers.

You Know Who You Are

An Open Letter To Dumb Asses

Dear Jack-Tards:

I have been meaning to write you for some time now, but have been incapable of finding the proper words. You see, this is probably my fourth or fifth attempt to put my feelings in writing about this whole "Leaf Fans Are To Blame For The State Of Their Team" charade.
Well, they say a picture is worth 1000 words, I think this one is worth 1004.



Best of luck in your future ass-hattery.
