Ruxpin interview.

So today I interviewed ol' Teddy for the soon-to-be-available leafs GM position. That guy is an idiot. All he did was read me some story from a tape. Incompetent. Wait a minute, if I hire a top flight exec he might take MY job. OK Teddy, you're on the call-back list.

Ruxpin meeting today.

Hey kids, just an FYI that Teddy is showing up this afternoon for an interview about the "potential" GM position. Fergalicious is out west so he'll never know. I'll let you kids know how it goes. Lates.

The Baumer.

Everyone is making me out to be the bad guy just because I figured out how to keep my position of power with the leafers. So ya, I threw Fergalicious under the bus. Big deal, it happens all the time. Let’s just say I gave him enough rope. Anyways, now that he’s on the way out we have to find a new GM, which is what Tenenbaum and me were talking about last night over drinks. We were brainstorming and I’m like ‘Budday, why not just hire me! I know everyone’s name in the office and I love hockey.” Well the Baumber nearly dropped his cognac. We never came to a decision but heard him mumble something about wondering if MacLean is really available. Next project: Get Baumber kicked off the board.

Fergalicious

Dregs makes a fairly obvious point. You know why all the other GMs want Fergalicious to stay? So they can keep fleecing him in trades! Wait, saying that was a mistake. And admitting that it was a mistake was a mistake. No more mistakes from this guy. Starting...now.

My Wife.

Well at least my wife still has a sense of humour. She sent me this in an email today. God bless her soul-crushing heart.
