That's alot of pages!!!

 

[Chaos Giraffe]

That's alot of pages!!!

I've just been told by my sources that they're writing out the entire CBA by hand. Everything's fully negotiated now, but the two sides are having difficulties choosing which brand of ball point pen to use.

A blue BiC or a black Papermate

 

[Large_Farva*]

Crayola is the only way

 

[Vomiting Kermit*]

Saskin wrote the first 81 pages with an HB mechanical pencil. Daly is being forced to go over it with the chosen pen color.

We're gonna be waiting another six months.

 

[Morbo]

Fingerpaint. The pages are all four feet by six feet.

Hope to see news, end up seeing the same old story. Again.

Exactly.

 

[Large_Farva*]

Exactly.

You know all.

A blue BiC or a black Papermate

Blue Bic. Legal documents should always be signed w/blue ink instead of black, so if they're writing it by hand it will have to be in blue.

 

[Spungo*]

You know all.

Trying to get me suspended? I'm one point away because of people like you. Anyway, this is the same old news story we have been reading for months now.

 

[pens66]

The deal is all done, all they're doing right now is drafting it. I just heard Duhatschek here on Montreal Sports Radio station the team 990, and he said he'd be shocked if there was no announcement by July 15. Duhatschek along with Bob Mckenzie are the most reliable sources out there. Strachan, the Hockey News and SportsNet are all frauds.

July 15th?

Didn't alot of media people say the same thing about it being done by July 1st?

Points? What points?

July 15th?

And June 15th and July 5th.

Nobody was saying that, Bob Mckenzie said the countdown was merely on towards an announcement being made. Only the unreliable sources were saying that garbage. You want reliable NHL sources read Mckenzie and Duhatschek.

 

[perrykaravello]

And June 15th and July 5th.

Pretty sad if you ask me , I think that Monkey who spun the wheel in the playoffs a couple years ago would have better odds of predicting the end of this thing instead of these so called "Reporters"

 

[Scoogs]

Points? What points?

If you get 13 warning points you get suspended for 7 days.

I agree with you 100%. What's even more sad is that people actually believe them.

 

[Chaos Giraffe]

"The monkey"?

OMG.

Maggie. Refer to her by name.

Jeese.

 

[SENSfreak_03]

maggie should of spun the wheel for a CBA Date.

 

[Sotnos]

If you get 13 warning points you get suspended for 7 days.

Yes, indeed you can. That's not really a topic for this board however.

 

[Tricolore#20]

I'm losing faith day by day... It seems like everyday somebody makes a claim that the lockout will end. I've been duped enough, and I really can't take it anymore.
