He left because he got a new job. He is now Snooki's personal ass wiper on Jersey Shore. |

It's about time, although he is replaced by an ex-Rag and Devil. Oh well. Still good news. http://sports.espn.go.com/nhl/news/story?id=6615288 edit webb20: merged |

In Garth I Trust

I like the replacement choice. I've always said that the league should have an ex-player who was not a goon and had great TALENT to play this game. Campbell sucked as a player, he sucked as a coach and he sucked in the position of dean of discipline. Shanny played the game at an incredibly high level and while a physical player wasn't a goon. His playing experience should give him a far superior insight and ability to dole out punishment for cheap hits and the like. I hope Shanny cracks down on some of the BS we see occasionally on the ice and the BS we've seen come out of Colinblow's office in the past. |
I miss these and want more of them ![]()

A few suggestions for the very wonderful Spasm of the lower Colin's job opportunities. He can get a job on a fishing boat as the master baiter. He can replace that "Can you hear me now" guy. By the way, no, we can't. He can join the circus as an ass clown. He can be Arnold Schwarzeneggers traveling secretary. And finally- I can really see him as the sausage in that weiner race they have between innings at Milwaukee Brewers game. He would definitely "beat the weiner". That's all I got..... |

All I can say, after being off the site for awhile, is........THANK GOD!!! The '10-'11 season is already starting on a high note. As far as his new job, how about the male escort for Sonia from "Operation Repo". |
