I thought that was a great article about EJ.
I can’t wait to watch the game tomorrow night.
Sorry I can’t join y’all but then I’d know what happened.
I soooo wanted to go to the watch party or chat along here.
I hate when the real world gets in the way of my hockey

How does Erik Johnson "Erik Johnson"?

Eeej-ing may be possible . . . . Probably not prudent around Beej or Deej or Teej . . . .

One day, David Backes and Albert Pujols will combine forces to become the most awesome piece of violent force known to man.

It's not just anyone

that has their name turned into a verb. I’d like to Erik Johnson sometime, but I don’t have the skills. Only a first-overall pick can truly Erik Johnson like that.
