Step It Up

Things are getting serious now, aren't they?

"Jeah! They are!" screamed Burgs.

A few days ago I thought that the lead Sitch built up may have been enough to coast for the rest of the season. I know it's a bit premature of me to think that (FYI: Sir Fucking Randy is NEVER premature), but my mind does wander at will. Anyway, I was strolling down Elgin, after a meal of fine poutine, thinking, "Damn, a 200-point lead sure is big, isn't it?"

"FUCK NO!" said Burgundy. "We've only just begun, Commissioner Randy. It's time to step it up!"

Indeed, Mr. Ronald. Last night's games were a thunderous (no abs) example (of excellence) of that. Sitch, feeling the recent Burg Surge decided to play almost all of his players and brought home 62.10 fantasy points, one of the best single-night productions we've seen ever in the Randy Leagues.

"It's all in the carbs," said Sitch. "No simple, all complex."

This is what "Hazzz!" looks like.

Not to be left in the dust, Burgundy turned in a good night himself, bringing in 54.40 fantasy points, and the distance between him (second overall) and Sitch (leader) is now 154.40 fantasy points. There's still a little ways to go, but the gap is dwindling.

"Dwindling like Sitch's intelligence!" said Burgundy, smirking.

"I am counting myself lucky," said Sitch. "Earlier in the year, I was trying to wheel and deal for Corey Perry, but that never materialized. Up until recently, I was also shopping around Lundqvist and a few other goalies. I'm sure as hell fortunate that I found no dancing partners; my team would have looked a lot different had I found someone to pull the trigger."

You are one lucky man, Sitch. Will it be enough to win a third consecutive title? I guess we'll have to see.

"You gotta be good to be lucky, and lucky to be good," said Dick Burns.

Wise words, Dick.
