[Rocco]

Hey what do you know, the usurper is back. Instead of locking down my threads for no reason she's now trying to keep me out of threads. What a surprise.

Oh.. that was yesterday. . . when I could no longer stay out of getting canaan to answer rj.

I don't think we'd have any arguments over rj's choice, nor the logic behind it, for the game 4 starter.

btw.... way to *pizza*in' GO, pghskins!!!

Spoiler:

Did I mention that another new juju for this gmae (new juju, meaning doing everything different from what I did the previous 3 games), for me, was getting drunk? yah... so, it's only taken me, like, 10 mins to write this post. and the stupid cursor keeps jumping around which isn't helping

[dagny]

I have a question.

Where the aich-e-double hockey sticks is fortKnox?!

You buried him in a ditch.

I'm sure he'd beg to differ.

If he were. . . y'know.... around.

He's not around because you buried him in a ditch.

It's been 5 quotes for a while now. You only show up when you feel the need to screw me over so you may not have noticed.

[Kaizer]

so who has tonight?

[canaan]

Drunk Rocco

[Rocco]

Drunk Rocco

What's whiter than a napkin, harder than a dinner plate? If you want it, come and get it, you know I stay super straight.

[dagny]

Drunk Rocco

Ohhhhhhhhhhhh..... NOW it all makes sense.

[canaan]

I'm glad my Patton-esque speech woke Rocco up

[Rocco]

Still puffin my leafs, still with the beafs, still not lovin' police. Still rock my khakis with a cuff and a crease, still got love for the streets.

Someone needs to step the hell up for Game 6. I'll be in the bullpen if you need me.

[PghSkins]

Where was that speech for Game 1?

[Rocco]

Game 1 was hubris. I was sick. Should have let Kaizer take it but didn't want to back out. Instead I kept the game and ran out of gas. I thought I could get through it but things went downhill on me and I couldn't stem the tide. Didn't help that posters violated my edict about non-Pens-related images, but I should be used to that by now.

Anyway, I got it to Game 6 with my usual style and aplomb.

[dagny]

I did everything different for game 4, than I'd done for the previous games.

So, I HAD to do the same for game 5 today, right? Well......

Waddle was set in the same spot. Jagr's autograph (as a Pen), set to neutralize him. (He was put away for the first 3 games BECAUSE of Jagr's autograph. My anger blinded me to it containing his energy as a Penguin. Dejan helped me let go of my anger. Ohmmmmmmm......)

Stanley Cup Champ hat in same spot.

Fancy Pens tunic/Alyssa Milano Touch collection - on. (Not something I wear for actual games. I wear jerseys.)

/action dagny drinks... (Apparently, I now have to get drunk for the remaining games, cuz I was drrruuunk for game 4. When I got home from work today, it was 2-1 flyers. I only got mildly buzzed for this one cuz it was the beginning of the 2nd when I started.)

The other thing I did differently, last game, was defend Rocco in the gdt. I revised that, this gdt, by simply allowing that abomination to exist.

Good 'nuff!

[Rocco]

I feed off the hate of management and cool kids. Management pretended to like me in Game 1 and threw me off. I knew they were against me in Game 5 and channeled that. Any other poster with my results would have epic poems written about them, but they'd prefer I fall in a ditch and die. Every board needs a villain, and somehow that's my role. So I play the part and I'm great at it, because greatness runs through my veins. You all will miss me when I'm gone.

[count2infinity]

Rocco.... you're turrrrrrrible.

It's for the Pens, not for me.

[Rocco]

So is anyone going to step up for tomorrow? Sad that no one wants the challenge.

[canaan]

im more than willing, kemosabe.

Then stop hiding, sack up and make it known. Greatness is not handed to someone. Greatness is seized by the SOB that wants it the most and is willing to kill anyone who gets in his way.

We may need to discuss what exactly you mean by "full throttle" in the offseason. You're getting good at getting the Pens eliminated.

I'll be taking a while before determining my future.

[canaan]

I'm gonna go ahead and give up my seat as manager for the upcoming season. Rocco an the other cool kids can fight over nobody stepping up for games.
