The regime acknowledges that the people thirst for the savory, delicious nourishment of the truth, washed down with a cool, refreshing draught of justice. Unfortunately the regime is calling on its people to draw upon their temperance - as information is currently insufficient to compile an accurate list of suspicious persons at this time.
In lieu of this, you are presented with a list of your Duce's favorite household pets.
1) Cat - Russian Blue
2) Dog - Staffordshire Terrier
3) Fish - Beta
4) Hamster - Butterscotch in color.
That's fair.. I like to declare early because it tends to get the ball rolling. I find more information is usually beneficial to the TP... although at the rate this game is going I'm going to have a tough time keeping up.
The regime presents three reasons for hopping on the Kumar bandwagon...
1) Kesler's explainable ability to get into the minds of his friends.
2) Kumar is, generally, a weaker player that would not be overly missed if he is just a regular TP. Here I'm willing to trust Kesler's ability to find out if his friends are specials.
3) Glorious Duce has been twice hung in a "tie breaker" with Kumar
Vote Kumar
Citizen Kesler - The regime is particularly interested in the reasons for suspecting Kumar - whom you seem to know..... most intimately.
(Seriously though you usually find these things out in some private conversation... I'd we willing to follow your lead early if it makes sense. ((or makes so little sense that it almost has to be true))
The regime would like to announce that your glorious Duce, previous Doctor and ever patriot encourages the noble citizens of this forum to root out and destroy the despicable Mafioso by any means necessary. To this end, he begrudgingly endures Kesler's babbling as a force of (net) good.
They're not a "win the cup" right now team, but they're a "we need to make the playoffs right now so our young guys don't turn into the Oilers" kind of team.
Edit: regardless of what some people on this board may think, there is middle-ground and progress to be made between "tank" and "cup".
Considering I have Vanek in my fantasy league I'm pretty happy with this... My dark confession is that I also have Hodgson so I'm glad he already hooked up with Moulson...
In all seriousness though - after reading the reports Isles are a "right now" team and Vanek is the superior player. If he enjoys the year playing with Tavares (who wouldn't) it's a fairly even deal as Buffalo wasn't going to get more than a 1st and a 2nd at the deadline anyways.
My goal is to be sooo obnoxious that someone calls me IlDouche by the end of the year. I have some room to spare on my warning points.
..and please don't start smiley-ing. I think that level of inconsistency would give me anxiety.
I know, my "not me though" meant she wasn't more masculine than me, symbol of virility and machismo that I am.
Masculine being defined as "having qualities or appearance traditionally associated with men" - I'm not going to get into stereotypes of gender roles - but Hodor's posts have a tendency to (occasionally) be aggressive and argumentative. I would say more traditionally "male". That's all I was teasing about. (I usually enjoy reading them, to be honest.)
