GAME DAY MUSIC

"Human Behavior” - Bjork

[Tripod]

Good GDT.....but I can't deal with Bjork.

 

[Chinatown88]

 

[backburner]

great news everyone. we play mcbackup

 

[BernieParent]

"I think this is the greatest GDT of all time." (Sorry, MSE)

 

[BillDineen]

Nice GDT as usual. (I skipped Bjork though).

 

[The Management]

Just had to come in peace and say... this GDT is fantastic.

 

[Curufinwe]

The MSE GDTs without all the try-hard garbage are so much better.

 

[Varcus]

The GDT is fantastic.

Not sure if you're joking?

Elephants and dolphins have long memories. Just saying.

As repeated from the prior thread, I needed some relief this year from the grind of doing every GDT. Capt. Dave and a couple of others have graciously offered their own input.

 

[Danko]

Bjork?...BOO THIS MAN

 

[Gary Nylund]

Leaf fan coming in peace. I just popped in because someone said the GDT was funny, it truly is, excellent job.

Good luck tonight. Really looking forward to this one.

 

[Raymoondo]

That GDT post just made me a Philly fan

 

[leaffaninvancouver]

I can only hope the game between our teams is half as good as this GDT.

 

[TheKingPin]

The MSE GDTs without all the try-hard garbage are so much better.

I am also a traditionalist in this sense, but I always appreciate the efforts!

As appleyward has said, Boston is likely our biggest target/threat. I'd like it if we won this game obviously, not expecting to. Their system is awesome and they have players that can create. Plus you know mase is getting the start which is such a poor choice.

I was explaining to my wife how the losing stretch could be attributed to team fatigue or at least mase fatigue. The team still looks like garbage at times, but mase is controlling rebounds better and not letting up the flubs. There is no logic beside Hak logic to not use Stolarz more earlier.

He players well.
Mase needed the break.
He will be a big part of next year.
He's not a fresh rookie even for a goalie.

There is NO reason to play mase this much. It's a rookie college coach move from a coach who is no longer a rookie.

that was great, eh? Really well done,

 

[Hollywood Cannon]

K. You're free to sign up and make one yourself that isn't "try-hardy."

 

[Tripod]

The MSE GDTs without all the try-hard garbage are so much better.

Wow....what a dick comment.

God forbid people be appreciative to the guys that put all the effort into these GDT.



Must be upset because your boy AMac is getting made fun of.

 

[Roo Mad Bro]

Audibly laughed out loud reading the GDT.

This is my favorite one. 10/10.

 

[Les Averman]

Wow....what a comment.

Glad to see some others with this opinion. CDP is taking time out of his day to make a creative game-day thread and people have the nerve to call it garbage... There's a sign-up area if you want to do something about it. Don't fault the guy for doing something fun and different for people on here. If you don't like it, don't read it. You're not paying a subscription.

 

[saltming]

Awesome job on the GDT.

 

[X66]

I laughed.

Bad enough I read it with the T&P voices in my head.

Bozandy for the win.

 

[SolidSnakeUS]

Time to **** up the Leafs. Gonna be good .
