Well, here we are at the halfway marker in the season and guess
what...the Penguins still have a legitimate chance of pulling
this whole thing off.
What I mean by that is not just playing well enough to secure a
spot in the playoffs, I'm talking about winning the whole
sunshiny show. I think the Penguins have found their groove as
far as playing as a team goes. Now all they need is to keep
everyone healthy, keep scoring on a consistent basis, and just
let Tom Barrasso do what he does best and I think the Pens have a
real chance.
The Pens are 20-14-7 for 47 points. This places them 11 behind
Philly for the top spot in the Atlantic and eight points behind
the Devils for the second spot. This isn't bad for a team who
nobody (not myself of course) expected to make the playoffs.
Well, I got news for all those non-believers...it's gonna happen
and shame on you for turning on a team when they're hurting.
Myself on the other hand, I was behind the Pens from the get-go.
I think if you look back at my first article this season it says
something along the lines of "They're gonna suck." but that
wasn't me who wrote it. It breaks down like this...I originally
submitted the article to Editor-in-Chief Mike Dell. Mike Dell
decided to change all the sentences that read, "They're going to
be awesome" to" They're gonna suck." Why did he do this? I
think to just stir up controversy. That's my opinion.
In my last issue I asked you, the readers, to send E-mail. And
the response was overwhelming. I received a whopping 455 letters
of praise in just a 10-day span. So I would like to take this
opportunity to thank everyone for writing, and as a reward I have
taken excerpts from some of my favorites and posted them here for
you to read. I have left the last names off for privacy reasons,
and for the fact that these girls are mine and I'm not sharing.
Dear LCSGod, Zippy sucks...you rule...you make the website what
it is...Zippy's gay...Will you marry me?
Forever yours,
Shelly
Shelly, you're right. Zippy does suck.
Jerry, how is it that this "webpage" was able to succeed
without you being there for the first 10 years or so?
P.S. I love you.
Just curious,
Michelle
Michelle, I too was wondering how these five idiots (I counted
Zippy twice) survived without my writing skills. I feel that now
that I have arrived that these jabronies should be kissing the
ground I walk on.
Jerry, how much does Mike Dell weigh?
Love,
Mom
Dear Mom, you've seen Mike Dell; he can't weigh any more than 75
pounds.
Dear Jerry, I loved your pictures at the Happy Birthday Baby
Jesus game. On top of being the hottest guy I've ever seen, why
didn't you kick Zippy's a**?
Chimp hater,
Matthew
Dear Matthew, I wanted to pummel the chimp on several different
occasions, unfortunately LCS Company Policy states that no writer
shall beat on the chimp. You should know that.
Well, folks, that's it for me. Why? Because I can!
