Monday Links: Aggro Crag to Determine Captaincy Edition

I'm going to be posting bad Blues wallpaper for the links photos all week, so if you've got some, submit some. This one at right is atrocious. An action figure and the current logo with red trim? Nasty.

Classic Nickelodeon FTW

friendly reminder, they are starting to air 90’s Nickelodeon shows on a late-night block on Teen Nick Channel….. Pete & Pete, Double Dare, Doug, All That, Hey Dude, GUTS, and more are to be in the rotating line up each night.

so what's the problem?

by Mr. Particle on Jul 25, 2011 10:39 PM CDT up reply actions

single seat on the aisle

they wont give me one AND the also insist on letting me know they have some. just not for me.

they have 1.5k of mine already so now they also want me to bend over and take 10 rows higher cos “we can’t give you anything in the ‘sight lines’ you are used to”

i go through this EVERY year. i had row j last season. last seaon at this point in time they had “zero” aisle seats in the entire lower bowl (bahahahahaha) so now that they magivcally have one only 10 rows higher i can tell everyone. blues are lagging in ticket sales!

oh but if i call when single seaon tickets go on sale, maybe they might find a seat that they have that they might actuallly sell me. or rather give me cos they already sold me a horse and pony show.

oh that is still a maybe

oh the 10 game plan includes the openner which means the second single seats go on sale the seats they wont give me they will give someone who hasnt given the blues 6.5k over the last three years, and probably 10 k since the freaking lockout. 10k gets me two things. jack and squat

oh and a ticket rep actually yelling at me (although im sure this will shock ya, i probably yelled first)

this is an old lawyer rule i think you just violated, never ask a question you dont know the answer to

Now I almost feel guilty

For buying my first ten game plan. Hope you get to smack around your sales rep, mine was surprisingly pleasant.. (Of course when I’m staring at them from about 12 rows off the ice I’m not gonna crab.)

I’d say you should just head down to the offices, nothing like a little bitch smacking won’t hurt their egos.. :)

Totally off topic

but we’ve had fantasy baseball and hockey for a few years but no football.
Now that it looks like we’ll have that is anyone going to do that?
I had to get into Mr Depends work league and there were only 6 of us, kind of boring.

WHO WILL BE THE BLUES CAPTAIN NEXT SEASON?!

(Shakes Magic 8-Ball)

“ALL SIGNS POINT TO BACKES”

OK, cool.

Yeah, but David BaCkes has the ability to control every Magic 8-Ball in the world...

He does it just by thinking “I’d like to control every Magic 8-Ball in the world right now.” And it happens. Of course, it was funnier when he once thought “I’d like for D.J. King to control every Magic 8-Ball in the world right now.” Every question was answered with a giant fist to the questioner’s temple.
