I NOW Believe Gus Nyquist Is a Hall of Famer and Uncle Mike

I really don't have to go on too much about Nyquist. If you extrapolate, because you're a pharmacist and you use that word in every-day conversation just like a big boy who went to "university" and there are times when two syllables just aren't enough to get that salient point across in between sips of craft beer that you don't like the taste of but you'll drink anyway because there's got to be that one person, just one, who is impressed by it? If you extrapolate, he'd have a lot of goals and he'd probably be in the Calder discussion. Does he even qualify? I don't know.

But I do know this: Mike Babcock lied to you yesterday. You knew it. I knew it. He absolutely knew it and the only people who believed him were the ones who usually believe him and that's the Diggers.

Ted Kulfan, anyone? Yes, I have some Ted Kulfan for you.

“The thing to understand is it’s not about Pavel one bit."

Love it. Thank you. Liar. It's all about Pavel. All of it. Every bit, all the one bits. Two bits, three bits. Every bit of it is all about Pavel. And Hank. Yes, the kids got us to this point. But if this thing is gonna move forward, one and most likely two have got to be back. If you believed Babcock there, you're high.

“Someone told me he’s playing Friday.”

Yep. Someone did. Because you asked. Repeatedly. You ask every day. You ask him. Every day. "Someone?" Liar.

“I haven’t been involved in those decisions all year,” said Babcock, adding it’s Datsyuk’s call if he’s ready. “I only spend time worrying about the players who are playing."

Lying liar. What is this fantasy lawn jarts? That's the most disgusting, beautiful, pornographic lie he's ever told. Mike Babcock is involved in EVERYTHING, or he wouldn't be Mike Babcock. He only spends time worrying about every aspect of all that there is in the universe. Everything.

If I hear he’s playing (Wednesday), I’ll start worrying about him tomorrow.

No. Nope. Nada. You'll keep worrying about him now, the way you've been worrying about him for 9 years, and especially 9 weeks or whatever it's been. You "worry" about him every day. You ponder and ruminate and sip about it. I only "worry" about Datsyuk and Zetterberg about 6 hours per day and it's not even my FRIGGING JOB. It's his life, his pastime. His addiction. He worries about all of it. Every. Single. Day.

You're a liar, Mike. I've said nothing new in this post and that's nothing new in itself. But someone needs to say it. You're lying. And we dig it.

Most likely no live blog for me tonite. It's raining in San Diego and the Navy does not handle that well at all. Not one bit. Paul, please start it if you can.
