NHL Mega-Mock Draft Reboot - Discussion / Draft Thread - PHASE FOURTEEN! Part One!

[JojoTheWhale]

This feels excessive

He called you a jacked multimillionaire with a residency contract at the Luxor. You should thank him.

Are you sure you want to hang your hat on the "rules" of the English language? G is usually pronounced like a J when it's followed by an E, I, or Y. Look at that beautiful I standing there taunting you.



What you're missing here is that I was going to use Lizzo or Kanye and decided to be nice.

Feel free to use Kanye, @JojoTheWhale. And pronounce his name however you want.

 

[BernieParent]

He can pick whatever letters he wants, but he can't choose how the English language properly pronounces them.

If he instead made it a .poo file, we'd pronounce it it "poo" because that's what it spells. Even if he claimed it was still pronounced "jif".

Who here hasn't downloaded a ton of .poo files?

 

[Asnito]

Skip me for now I'll catch up tomorrow

 

[Captain Dave Poulin]

@Rebels57 you can go, please.

Shouldn’t one be

Oh, that's a good one. I still would have gone with (Sandy Duncan's) Peter Pan, but this would have been the runner-up. A total oversight on my part.

Jojo stanning Carrot Top is an unexpected development.

He just knows that if I start crying he’s going to need to take more dog pictures

 

[Captain Dave Poulin]

Let's see, where did we end up yesterd ........... oi.

We start the day with @Rebels57 on the clock. That gives me quite a heavy dose of deja vu. @BernieParent is on deck. @CanadianFlyer88 is on the lido deck. Striiker is on the lido afterdeck.

Let's GOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!

I'm just joking, I don't care about the pace - I have a blind chicken to babysit. I mean, I guess we do need to pick it up a little, though. Speaking of which, I had to go pick up a lawn chair and move it so I could pick up the blind one and carry her to bed. Member last night when I was like, quote, "I'm never having a baby, because that would mean that I probably have a wife, and I'll be damned if I stick my feet in a bag of f***ing oil for five hours"? Well now I basically do have a child, and she is a Helen Keller with wings. Not that there's anything wrong with that. She is a huge fan of Ozzy Wiesblatt - she told me in braille. The Braille guy who invented that is a genius, but he'd have to have some kind of supernatural power to make a language system for blind and deaf chickens. They are not geniuses.

Speaking of bags of oil and chickens, I really don't feel like eating chicken anymore. I have bonded too much with these idiots. I'm sure if we had cows I would have bonded with them too, because I am very soft, but I can't imagine ever getting to the point where I wouldn't feel like eating hamburgers. I guess it's possible, though. If you ever hear me tell you that I got a pet salmon, send help.

How dumb is that chicken @Captain Dave Poulin ? Perhaps it should send Dave Scott a resume.

It's so dumb that if it had any connection to Bob Clarke, it would have been named Team President long ago.

I'll keep this short and sweet.

Guaranteed Contracts are ruining sports and need to be abolished effective immediately.

Super nice guy. Treats his employees well. Doesn't make a spectacle out of himself, just does his character for the people who enjoy it. Not my sense of humor, but that's ok. I have no reason to take issue with him.

 

[Asnito]

Cap is it bueno to make up picks

Why are you asking him? I'm in charge here.

It's always ok to make up picks.

Nope, i've been "Sell The Team" for a while now.

Of course - you don't have to wait for my permission. Shoot.

EDIT: Also, I don't have any permission to give - I just do the paperwork and stuff.

By all accounts, he has taken all the vitriol hurled at him for decades completely in stride. A lot of people do not like the thing he has created, and he's cool with it. He was cool with Norm absolutely destroying him on Conan.

If I were in town and my schedule were clear I'd give him a shot. People don't get residency for no reason. Casinos like money. Might not be a laugh riot for me, but it'd be an experience.

KC of Sunshine Band fame taught me a decade ago to give unlikely things a shot. Deeply unlikely things. He also bought me a pitcher of beer, so that helped his case. He's a weirdly agile dancer for his age and size.

@CanadianFlyer88

I don't want this brilliant pick to get lost in the doom and gloom of that bullshit press conference. These are possibly the greatest #Levels we have had so far. Great pick, Bernardo.

 

[Asnito]

The first pick we are going to make is a depiction of our rival. It is very tempting to mock defect with any number of silly characters but I feel bad for the guy. Defect takes so much abuse on here but he is a good guy. With that said here is our fictional pick for Defect.

I made a few of these when I was still part of the adventure before we decided to pull a 'Madonna' and whore our way to the top.

Here are few others I made that I'm going to put in a spoiler so as not to spam the thread too bad.

Spoiler: Other characters

 

[Asnito]

For our crushing sports moment I've had this pick ready to go figuring nobody would take it. I never imagined the fool would upstage me but alas here I am. Our pick is

Fletch earns this honor for his horrible management that has killed my interest in the Flyers. I recorded and watched every game since the early 90's but this off season killed me. Everything they traded to acquire Risto, keeping AV and the total lack of a coherent plan has me at a place that if the Flyers relocated I would be ambivalent.

You have to pick a specific moment - his hiring? Today's press conference? Other? You can't make a bad choice, but you have to make a choice.
