The Honolulu Ghibli proudly name as our Team President of Hockey Operations.....Micah Blake McCurdy
This is a POHO at its purest and best form. His experience with statistics (HockeyViz) will be of use, and he can contribute more than 5x a year, if he so chooses.

@BernieParent -- I'd hire you for a million bucks, you could do nothing but make dad jokes, and you'd be worth it

I thought this was supposed to be a spite PoHO... or is Magua secretly a "hockey guy"?
I guess I didn't read the category well enough. I jotted down non-spite names a month ago. Okay, then.

The Honolulu Ghibli actually for real this time select as our Team Detective.....Bigby Wolf
If that sounds like "Big Bad Wolf," it's because he is! Or was. The Ghibli are not the only ones allowed a re-do. From the Fables comics (and Wolf Among Us game), Bigby is your typical shapeshifting anti-hero detective/sheriff of an enclave of fairy tales, myths, and legends in Manhattan. Picture Wolverine meets Sam Spade (Maltese Falcon is taken, I ain't pick tippin'). Centuries ago, granted the ability to turn human, Bigby is out to right wrongs, including his own. But the beast always lurks within.

In misery of redwings of suckage for a long time
"The owners of the Halifax Galleons, disappointed to note that we have already selected our first option for Spite President of Hockey Operations, David Samson, will swallow out bile long enough to spit out the name of his carpetbagging "owner" uncle and almost diplomatic croney Jeffrey Loria.
"Mr. Loria's disastrous entry into professional sport was in 1989, when he bought the Oklahoma City 89'ers, a "AAA" minor league team. He sold the team four years later to pursue a major league franchise, eventually buying a minority interest in the Montreal Expos in 1999. He then bought out the other owners, made ridiculous demands for a new stadium, fired beloved coach Felipe Alou, and then swindled his way into ownership of the Miami Marlins in a deal that saw MLB take ownership of the Expos only after Mr. Loria took the entire coaching staff, the team's computers, all the equipment that didn't have an Expos logo (and a few that did), office equipment, all of the team's scouting reports, and other proprietary information.
"Mr. Loria resumed his weaseley ways in Miami. He then sold the Marlins in August 2017 for $1.2 billion. He was enabled to pad his bank account by gutting two franchises and serving the interests of other self-absorbed MLB owners.
"We eagerly await all of the torture methods made available to Mr. Loria and his ilk in the QuackVerse."
Over to you, finally, @Young Sandwich.

He's a massive douche, eh Bern? I miss the Expos. Everybody does.
We start the day with @Young Sandwich on the clock, @BiggE on deck, me on the lido deck, and @Asnito on the lido afterdeck.
I promised myself that once I got through all the wedding shit, I would be a total vegetable on Sunday. It's Sunday, and I'm sprouting roots.

Happy vegetable day everyone.
We're all very excited to eventually say goodbye to this planet and make the migration to the Quackverse. Although we'll be surrounded by familiar items we've painstakingly chosen to bring along, we're still heading to a completely uncharted futuristic territory with who-the-hell-knows-what waiting for us. To help ease any anxiety our team might have involving the unknown, we've decided to add a detective who has a ton of experience with the previously unexplored, the paranormal, and the scientifically bizarre. Being trained at a young age to protect the universe from an inevitable war gave her some badass abilities that may come in handy along the way. Telekinesis, total recall, pyrokinesis, electrokinesis, and super-human strength to name a few. She's the total package.

@BiggE it's time to crank one out (phrasing).

SELL THE DAMN TEAM
Again, with this shit?
Yeah, ok, fine.
So um, team detective, well that reminds me about this one time in Reno. Me and that limp dick Tim McCarver were trying to detect just how many hits of acid I could take while trying to convince a couple of Mexican hookers to
JUST READ THE DAMN CARD!!!
Um, yeah, you got it. The official team detective of the Jacksonville f***ing Methgators are, CHARLIE’S ANGELS!
@Captain Dave Poulin , did you have that certain poster hanging in your room?

Yuck, feel better buddy!
No detective teams huh?
Ok, will go with, Angel Kelly Garrett due to her illustrious…
So I am watching the fourth season of "Fargo" last week, and this character named Swanny popped on screen. She is the lover of Zelmare, the sister of one of the other characters. The lovers have just broken out of prison and are making plans for a bank robbery. Swanny is wearing a big hat and bulky coat, and her hair is in her eyes, but something about her is striking. Soon afterwards she is described as Zelmare's "butch Indian paramour" in the parlance of the day. I thought "Butch? Hardly." So I Googled, and it turns out to be the same actress who plays Monica on "Yellowstone." That explained everything.

I love it when Altuve f***s up. Can't stand that guy.
We start the day with @Asnito on the clock, @ajgoal on deck, @pit on the lido deck, and DancingPanther on the lululemon deck.
I slept so f***ing much yesterday. Every time I woke up I just kept falling back asleep. I was truly a vegetable, just like I planned. I did manage to watch four episodes of "Secret Invasion." I'm not sure it was any better than sleeping and dreaming up my own dumb story, but whatever.
That f***ing "Sweet Caroline" commercial just came on, so I have to go murder someone. Have a nice day.

Dropped the kid off at school and on the walk back saw two people walking their dogs heading in each other's direction. One dog completely freaked out, as one does, and its owner yelled "Kevin, get a hold of yourself!".... I burst out laughing to the dismay of Kevin's owner. She wouldn't understand. 
Ummmmm ...
We start the day with @ajgoal on the clock, @pit on deck, @DancingPanther on the lido deck, and CanadianFreak69 on the lido afterdeck. Asnito can make up his pick when he comes on.
I had three beers at the wedding, just to make the time pass better. And it worked. I actually got a slight buzz on just from three beers, which is hilarious, and the time blurred just enough that I wasn't constantly checking someone's watch. I don't remember what the beer was called, but I think it was a local IPA or something, and it was rank. It tasted like rainwater filtered through a railyard and an old hoodlum's knife collection. Not a fan.

Correct me if I'm wrong here, but I believe the 6 hour timer has lapsed at this point.
I admittedly have not had much time for video games in a long time, so I'll be hearkening back to the golden olden age of video gaming for my video game boss.
He's had multiple incarnations over the years and they are probably more frightening than his 8 pixel version. However, this game, ladies and gentlemen, was the first mass-produced console game where you could SAVE.
Yes, that's right youngins. You didn't used to be able to save progress and had to either play through in one sitting or use a code to access a point in the game (but with none of the things/skills you had accrued). So being able to save meant a much longer game with much more buildup to the final boss.
So I introduce you to the piggy-nosed result of me playing hours of the original Legend of Zelda.

@DancingPanther Come. The Triforce shall be MINE!
