The Smiling Gainey

“Just another WordPress.com weblog”

February 9, 2010 HOLY SHIT!

CANADIENS/SMILING GAINEY FACE CHANGES AS BOB GAINEY STEPS DOWN (new blog format)

Bob Gainey stepped down yesterday as Genital Manager of Les Canadiens…which either makes me irrelevant or incredibly popular. I choose the latter.

This is as good a time as any to announce a new format coming to the SmilingGainey. In the very near future we will be changing into a strictly comedy blog, with little to no editorial.

You may be asking yourself ‘why the hiatus, and why the change?’, to which we would reply “do shut up.” In the grand scheme of things, trying to be right all the time, and more importantly, actually being right all the time (we were, we really, really were) bring little satisfaction at the end of the day. We gave 110%, took things one game at a time, and you can bet your ass we checked our guts on a regular basis. Still, it just amounts to a fart in a hurricane.

What’s said and done will be left for posterity, so that future generations may see the sheer awesomeness, and that we may gloat on our deathbeds about being right on the internet (to which people reply ‘what was the internet’?). What will be coming is a typhoon of hilarity from outer space (and inner space) that will dwarf 3 of the Cannonball Run movies in sheer comedic genius. So fear not, the best is yet to come.

(and yes, I’ll get around to taking down the Christmas lights eventually)

We’d also like to take this time to send condolences to the Burke and Reedy families.
