Postcards from RWD, Vol 7: Other Teams Edition

Dear Kyle Okposo,

Do you ever wonder if you made the wrong decision about where you wanted to go to school? Duluth is such a beautiful city. You would be really popular there. We could get married. Please consider transferring.

Sincerely,
Runninwiththedogs

Dear UAA Head Coach Applicants,

Very funny! This is a great practical joke! Coach Shyiak is going to laugh his badonkadonk off when he finds out he's on Candid Camera, or that show all the kids are watching, Punked. I think playing jokes on your colleagues is a great idea, it fosters a fun and productive working environment. We've seen great examples of jocularity around the league. Who can forget when Mike Eaves and his players were pretending to be pro-wrasslers, and he threw a chair? Hilarious! And when Gwoz did that balancing act last year? Priceless! And John Hill's monkeyshines with the UAA coaching job? We're still laughing about that one!
I know when I turned in my application for the head coach position, I was totally fooling around. I'm sure he'll pull out a whoopee cushion or something when he comes back around this way. You must be fooling around, too. Because otherwise, it would be pretty ridiculous. Sketchy. Devious. Conniving. Un-American. Things that no one wants in a hockey coach. (Okay, maybe "Un-American" is how we got this party started in the first place.) So come on, you've had your fun. Joke's over! Cue Dom DeLuise!

In Jest,
Runninwiththedogs

Have you seen Okposo? Girl you would NEVER want to marry him. You would wake up every morning looking at THAT. Ick. Besides, he's dating Tyler Hirsch's sister. Hmm...interesting combo.

Have fun in Denver. I'm jealous...I want to go to a game there! I won't be picky though, since I just rolled back into town from Madison.

I'm assuming you're going to throw the Gaunt. at the DU boys? Can't wait!

Also...do you just not love yourself that you would even offer to marry Okposo?!?! Love yourself girl. There's taking one for the team, but that's a bit much:)

I am aware that he is uggo. But holy crap can he play hockey.

LetsGoMavs said...

Yes, that he can do well. Sadly though, he's getting all the hype when Nodl from SCSU is much better with more talent.

Okposo's kind of a hot dog...which will burn him at times and I think will hurt his future.

Talent still isn't worth the marriage:)
