WK23 - Balderdash!

Am I serious, or am I lying?

I've been a happy man as of late, mostly because Sens games are starting to mean something again. Never would I have thought I'd see grilled patties thrown onto the ice at the CTC, but then again, crazier things have happened. (Like me allowing Sitch to write about Bitch-It's-Sitch™, for example.)

But I am also happy lately because I had a recent visit with a few select-GM's; specifically, Tree Bone, Dick Burns and Sitch. Burgundy and Safari have been MIA recently; I believe Burgundy is frantically running his eyes through NHL scouting reports, trying it pick up last minute players to solidify his position in Tri-Hard! while Safari is #HAMMING it on Netflix. Needless to say, it has been quiet and somewhat lonesome for the white-haired Randy, so it was a welcoming feeling to see Dick, Tree and Sitch.

Dick Burns was back in #Hamburglar Town last week and he, Tree Bone and Sitch sat down for some wine, cheese and guacamole. They were at House of Sitch for the festivities. Commissioner Randy sat in on the visit, chatting it up and downing some good grub. A friendly game of Balderdash was also played, which surprised the hell out of me because I thought Sitch was illiterate.

"I was surprised too," said Tree Bone. "He (Sitch) actually came up with some pretty insane definitions for some of the words; believable, even. I couldn't believe how legitimate his definitions sounded."

The select-GM's also discussed several other topics, all of which were non-business related; it was pure fun and passion.

"All conversations with Dick Burns are always of that nature," said Dick Burns.

Pure fun and passion eh, Dick Burns? Even the conversation you had between you and the OPP for a speeding ticket you received while driving up the 401 to Ottawa?

"... No, I guess that wasn't all fun and passion," said Dick Burns. "Fine, ALMOST all conversations with Dick Burns are pure fun and passion."

"That was me," said Dick Burns.

Fortunately, with his Dick Burns charm, he was able to negotiate the ticket down substantially. No demerit points; just a few coins from his pockets. Count yourself lucky, Dick!

Anyway, here are this week's visuals, courtesy of the stats machine:

I'm a bit tired today so I won't get into the number crunching. You gentlemen and lady can eye the numbers for yourselves and make your own conclusions. For now, I'm off to reside in a deepie to get some shut eye and rest.

"Deepie?" asked Safari.

It's a deep cave... or something... right?

"I've been in my fair share of deep caves," chuckled Dick Burns.

Wise words, Dick.
