The Fate of NHL40Man

by Mr. Plank on Jul 6, 2009 4:42 PM PDT Comment 9 comments

News is slow, obviously.

The Subject

Name: NHL40Man

Age: 40?

Sex: Man?

The Facts

* 4 Fanposts, 9 comments

* Fanposts have nothing to do with the Sharks, nor do they attempt to touch upon that subject. Furthermore, most pieces could easily have been a comment in a previous article.

* Writing prose contains LOTS OF CAPS LOCK TRAUMA and is difficult to read at times. Meandering and unfocused is probably a sound description.

* Profile contains hilarious mission statement:

Well enjoy the site and look for weekly updates from me.
And I am a Detroit Red Wings fan and yes I know they lost the cup but they did win it last year and it was a good series.

Thanks for SB Nation.com for letting me do this.

* Has already been offered high paying jobs at Blogspot or Wordpress.

* Is a Detroit Red Wings fan, but does not belong to Winging It In Motown. Confusing, but not necessarily grounds for expulsion.

The Evidence

1) Gary Bettman and the Yotes

Excerpt: "I want a say in this! I think it is absolute bullshit that Gary Bettman is making excusesto not have another team in Canada! GARY BETTMAN HATES CANADA! I hate Bettman now."

2) Free Agents So Far....

Excerpt: "stupid monkey (hossa) pfffft!"

3) NHL 09 vs. NHL 2K9

Excerpt: "TO EA GAMES; (madden 09!) WE DONT HAVE 5 YEAR OLD KIDS OR SUPER JESUS LOVING PEOPLE PLAYING THE GAME SO YOU DONT NEED TO HAVE A MAJOR CENSORSHIP ON THE GAMES!!! I love jesus though. Be a pro is a little hard and boring as a goalie though."

4) Trades and Free Agents and Stuff

Excerpt: "Hey Im Here to talk about some trades and the Free Agents. So after you read this don't tell your friends..... TELL THE GUYS WHO ARE IN HERE TO MAKE THE RIGHT CHOICE..... Thanks and have a wonderful day (no homo)"

The Vote....

Poll

WHAT DO YOU GUYS THINK?!?!?!

I thought FTF was running summer daycare for kin-de-gahtners. Let him post whatever.

Email him the Fanposts so he can publish them on his own blog, then delete them.

Leave them up, but require all future Fanposts to at least approach legibility.

Just in case the unanimous poll results hold firm and “force” us to delete NHL40Man’s hard work.

- “lol yeah i saw that, but we are on the internet (interwebs as I say) so its okay not too use commas and periods and other stuff. Oh well stay tuned bud! thxz”

And of course…

- “IMA TAKING UR BLOGZ FRUM U!!”

I think that last one should be adopted as a meme. Should be used whenever something crazy happens.

Plank: Woah, that Pavelski goal was money!
TCY: Hey Turco… PAVELSKI’S A TAKING UR BLOGZ FRUM U!!

Fear the Fin: Where we just have to want it more!

nhl40man

make your posts somewhat relavent to the sharks. it’s getting annoying. of your 4 fanposts, 1 has already been done, and the other 3 could’ve been comments.

as for the poll, #3, and if giving him that other chance doesn’t work, then #2.

I say....

Delete them!

His fanPosts are taking up to much space and is clogging up the sidebar. I can’t see valuable posts like the “Hunting the Monster” one. It was posted a while ago but it is still useful. (sorry if this sounds kinda mean but…) The posts have almost no use at this site.

Unless the posts become somewhat relevant and useful, delete them!

hey plank

i remember you saying that you went to mitty, have you seen this? and just my opinion, i think they should just put the rest of the WCAL while their at it. especially serra and bellarmine.

Haha, holy shit!

I went to Mitty back in the day, but we were only kinda good back when I was there. Like, I think only our basketball teams and volleyball teams were winning anything. Kinda cool to see, though.

Sometimes the impossible can become possible if you're AWESOME!

RIP

We gather here today to mourn the loss of one NHL40Man’s Fanposts, which were erased from the sprawling internet highway today.

In his time here, NHL40Man taught us many things. The dangers of the caps lock button. The… well, that’s about it*.

At any rate, with one triumphant battle cry of “me out” in the comments of his latest piece, NHL40Man retired his keyboard and ventured into the wilderness to never be heard from again. We wish you the best dear friend.

*Seriously though, what’s the deal with accidentally turning on the caps lock button? I’ve never hD A PROBLEM WITH IT.
