Over the summer, I sent out a crack team of investigators to find out about some of our fellow HFJets posters. What they came back with was quite interesting, and throughout the season, we will look at some of the information they found out.
Today, we will look at the life of one of our more beloved posters: @Eyeseeing
Eyeseeing was born just south of the border in Walnut Grove, Minnesota to John and Ruth Seeing. They named him Eye after he fell out of the nest early on, and they constantly had to keep an “eye” on him after that...
Mischief followed Eyeseeing throughout his childhood, but his dream was to become a supermodel like the ones in the magazines...
Without his parents knowledge, Eyeseeing packed his bags and moved to New York City to pursue his dream. Times were tough early on, as he had to share a one room treehouse with two other “would be” models...
After months of searching, Eyeseeing finally got his big break...
That opened the door for him, and his career blossomed after that. Eyeseeing was at the zenith of his career when he became the “spokes-squirrel” for Squirrel Peanut Butter...
Things were going great until the company was bought out and changed the brand name to Skippy. They tried to keep Eyeseeing as the mascot, but by then, he was yesterdays news and lost his job...
Trying everything he could, Eyeseeing eventually tried his hand at acting and was up for a part in a new movie. The role was of a prehistoric squirrel, but alas, it was not meant to be, as the part was eventually given to a relative unknown...
After this letdown, Eyeseeing's life spiralled out of control and he went on one hell of a bender...
While passed out in Central Park, Eyeseeing was woken up by two large gentlemen who called him “a little squirrelly man.” He later learned it was Hans and Franz who called him that...
After sobering up, Eyeseeing went to find the pair to thank them for giving him a wake up call. Hans and Franz were more than happy to oblige and told Eyeseeing they were going to help “pump him up”...
And the rest they say is history....
In one of the best moves the NHL could have done for @macmaroon, the Winnipeg Jets home opener is an afternoon affair against the Paul Maurice coached Florida Panthers at 3:00pm. The Jets are coming off of a 5-3 loss at the hands of the Calgary Flames on Wednesday Night Hockey, while the Panthers lost 2-0 to the Minnesota Wild on Thursday night.
Will “Mike Scheifele” show up again for today's game and how much longer can Nikolaj Ehlers go injury free? Can Nate Schmidt learn not to ice the puck? Will El Nino put the biscuit in the basket and how much popcorn can Tree eat in the press box before he pops? These questions probably won't get answered today, but they will get answered at some point...
Go Jets Go!
