I'm glad my guy Sammy Honks is going to my brother. Keep him in the family.

We start the day with @ajgoal on the clock, @Strawberry Fields on deck, @BiggE on the lido deck, and pit on the lido afterdeck.

I wonder how much it would cost to send flowers to about 174 ladies in South Korea. If I figure it out now, I can probably get them there by Valentine's Day, which some people pronounce "Balentime's Day," which is hilarious, even if no one actually says that. The problem is that I have zero actual dollars. It could be a lonely love holiday pour moi.

@pit , are you ready to go commando?
It's amazing hearing Jim Nabors Christmas songs on the radio that time of year and realizing that this guy with the God-given voice was the same one playing the nasally voiced bumpkin on TV. Then again he did get to show off his chops at least once on Andy Griffith.

The cats are very relieved that the weather is no longer sub-arctic.

We start the day with @pit on the clock, @Magua on deck, DancingPanther on the lido deck, and Chuckles on the lido afterdeck. @ajgoal still has to make up his pick from yesterday.

Here's me, speaking in the third person, with my thoughts on the Carter Hart situation:

"He actually has no idea what to feed dogs, but he does say that a little pumpkin flesh mixed in with wet food should help your cats break down urinary blockage. Like the kind of pumpkin gunk in a can that you use for pumpkin pie? That shit."

But I already shared those thoughts with you a long time ago, so consider this a reminder.

The Honolulu Ghibli give an uncomfortably warm welcome to our next Futurehead......Tanner Molendyk



Pleasure thy name is WatchMolendykAndSimashevSkate (I didn't say it was a good name). Molendyk's taken the offensive jump on paper this season, which is fine and dandy, but I still think he projects more as a finesse defensive defender, with transition pops. I think the skill/creativity is on the average side, but holy moly, he's a gorgeous mover. It wouldn't shock me if he becomes a microstat darling and neutral zone king.

@DancingPanther -- you being the last thing on my mind tonight ensures the sweetest of dreams <3

Molendyk is a horrible name, but a great pick. I say this as a fellow draft expert after dozens of hours of tape, and twice as many hours of coaches tape.

We start the day with @Chuck Downie on the clock, @mja on deck, GKJ on the lido deck, and Toe on the lido afterdeck. @ajgoal still has to make his pick from several months ago.

I have things to do, so I am going to go play AoE II instead. Have a lovely day, and best of luck with Kingsbury.

Well, we now know nothing at all about the remaining draft-eligible players, so we'll switch over to non-hockey picks at the moment.

Team Scientist: Marie Curie

Madame-Curie-Paris-631.jpg


The first woman to win a Nobel prize, the first person to win it twice, and the only person to win it in two different scientific fields. After her husband and co-Nobel winner was killed in a tragic roadside accident in which his skull was crushed by a horse-drawn carriage, Curie continued on being a badass scientist until WWI, when she used her considerable gifts to create medical units to treat wounded soldiers, with an estimated million plus having benefitted from her efforts. After the war, she became something of a scientific emissary, traveling abroad to help advance scientific research in a variety of fields. She was impossibly modest despite her myriad achievements both scientific and social, and went on to found a Nobel dynasty, with her children also taking home Nobel prizes.

She likely died as a result of her constant handling of radioactive material. She's buried in a lead-lined coffin at the Panthéon, and her papers are so radioactive that they aren't safe to be handled.

Thank you Toe! Big Toe! Overcast Toe! Overgrown Toe!

I select SCIENTIST!

Otto is the beneckbearded nerd who invented the 4-stroke internal combustion engine running on gasoline. What more needs to be said? That's a big deal. If you've ever ridden in a car to get somewhere instead of walking all day or having to ride a sentient meat-bike capable of making bad decisions independent of you, then you should thank this guy.

You can go to a pub to look for a fight. In that case, you head to the [REDACTED] in [RANCH]. Or, you go to one looking to avoid one. Our pub is accorded neutral territory, where we can have both friendly and hostile entities over for a pint and a bite. Be aware that there is no service staff, if you can't get up and get your own, you don't need to be there.
