Making my move

[Captain Shamrock]

Don't worry....

It could be worse, Keeper, if anyone picked him. However, no one was smart enough to have the insight.......Of all people, it should have been me especially with a fcuking name like Brendan Shanahan ........Irish all the way. But then again, I should have picked Owen Nolan , who was actually born in Belfast, based on that theory. He is shitting the bed....

I know what you mean . . .

Day number 5

I now hold a huge one-tenth of a point lead and feel a few competitors breathing down my neck. This is the type of pressure I thrive on and after seeing Bigun score a remarkable 0.4 points last night, I had a nice chuckle. With a plethora of games today, I will be looking to solidify my lead again, or just fcuking lose it all together.

Saturdays

With almost all teams always playing on Saturdays, I think the standings on Sunday mornings will be true indicators of who will challenge in the end (aside from Jimmy Holiday and his Inter mates).

Anywho, good to see myself back on track after slipping back 2 places... a solid 14th with ~6 months to go.

~TB.

 

[Keeper]

Who is . . .

. . . this "Kratchmer" person(s)? Tom and rookie. Did he enter twice or is it a father-son combo? In any rate, not bad so far . . . 2 in the top 4.

 

[Regs]

As of right now, it doesn't really matter who this Katmando character is if you catch my drift...

And if you don't, you soon will.

[Captain Shamrock]

Get rid of them especially if they pass me

At this time, I, Captain Shamrock, will gracefully pass the yellow jersey on to a fellow TTPer. I have enjoyed my time at the top and will look forward to being there in the near future.....

After Jimmy Holiday said

I'm gonna catch ya you know

I accepted the inevitable. There was a certain evil look in his eye that made me think of La Cosa Nostra . I felt obligated to drop from first tonight and let Jimmy and a few of his goombahs narrow the gap or even move ahead of me. I think it was a sporty move on my part and I hope everyone else appreciates me giving up the lead after FIVE days in charge.......

REGS, you can boot the Kratchmers out of you like........

 

[Captain Shamrock]

Seven........but

I feel like my run is over. Kovalev, Messier, and Bertuzzi. 3 down already. At least everyone knows who had the best team before injuries/suspensions. I can hold my head up high this year know that I have been in first for a whole week.


Captain who is wondering where the fcuk Kovalev is.......especially since Pittsburgh scored 5 goals in the first 2 periods...


Fcuk

 

[kurgan]

Movin up?

Fcuk,

I thought that I had moved up 3 places to 31st. Smiling to myself I tried to check out who the losers were that I was ahead of. Then I realized that three teams were unceremoniously booted and I was still last.

I'm beginning to seem like a bit of a mockery around here - especially after Sunday.

Fcuk.

 

[Jinky]

Eighth place with 10 games in hand on the leader.

Mahovolic was bad luck.

 

[Bigun]

Hello Captain,

Up to 14th! Just passed Total Bastard and couldn't help noticing you might be hard pressed to get points out of Bertuzzi, Messier, and Kovalev (indefinite) for a while. Hard lines.

By the way... what the hell was that "Lansdowne" comment all about. TB couldn't help me so I had to ask.

More importantly, interested in any week to week football wagers?

Oh now the gloves are off

Mario is back with a 3 point night. Though I got passed by pool-pretender Bigun, I'm not worried and have my sights set directly on his mate Shitpicks.

What was I thinking with Potvin?

 

[Jimmy Holiday]

Captain in my sights

2nd place and closing the gap quickly.

Making my move to the top

Kurgan

No worries you'll be out of the cellar in no time,New Jersey will turn it around

 

[Captain Shamrock]

I should hope so....

You guys have me in your sights, like most women do. For fcuk sakes, you should have passed me by now. I have three players not playing(Kovalev had arthroscopic surgery today and is expected to be out between 1 and 3 weeks) and you still haven't caught me. I know I have the best team when they're all healthy. You know it. Simple.

As for the football wagers, Bigun, bring it on my Dutch prognosticator. I am not sure what you have in mind but I am game as long as it doesn't involve me getting on my hands and knees.

[Jinky]

I think that the fact that former Premier player Balbaby is 11 pts behind the leader with 12 games in hand is really quite admirable.

Considering the fact that with one game less in hand, I am not much further back, I also think that I too am quite special and deserve at the very least, a hug.

Fcuking Jersey

From one of the first scenes in Highlander:

Police Captain: You ever get over to Jersey, Nash?
Connor MacLeod: Not if I can help it!

Rangers 4- Jersey 3
I'm going to be the only poolie with a negative score for my goalies this year.

Have I told you plunkers that I have 3 guys injured?

That is EIGHT days in a row and I have 3 guys injured.


Captain who slowly feeling his lead slip away.......... and is becoming more and more paranoid by the minute......

Wrong thead but here is a question that should be seriously considered:

Since Todd Bertuzzi received a 10 game suspension, shouldn't he receive 600 penalty minutes for this? According to the rules of the pool, he should. That would mean that I should have another 150 points, as would 9 other poolsters.

As the pool moderator, you should really check in to this, or else the whole thing could end up being a debacle. It would be the noble thing to do......

So technically, I am now up by at least 154 points on anybody who does not have Todd Bertuzzi.

 

[Captain Shamrock]

Bigun, that put's you.....

177 behind. Unlucky.
