Gary Roberts Un-appreciation Thread

[TexasBolt]

I thought this might be cathartic. Rant away.

Ahem...

Mr. Roberts,

I'd like to personally thank you for making me out to be a complete ass today (moreso than I can apparently do on my own it seems). I posted earlier today that it seemed perfectly logical that you suit up for tonite's game, to begin your audition for a possible deadline draft pick coming our way via your departure. It seems you woke up from your afternoon nap, read the posting, and decided to take it to heart and take it out on Matt ****ing Cooke, thus costing the team more than just a chance to win this game, but your trade value as well.

I would hope that you took some solice from that altercation with Matt ****ing Cooke and appreciate the effort involved in his gunshot-like flop to the ice. It must make you proud that came from page 26 of your book "Diving For Dummies".

Good luck in your future, whatever it may hold, and if you could see to it that should you be traded, that we at least can get a spare tire for the Zamboni or an extra water bottle, I would be extremely grateful.

Mr. Roberts,

My only outgoing request to you is as follows. In the "Gary Roberts plus a draft pick for ten bottles of gatorade" trade, can you please arrange that we only have to add in a 4th or lower to get you the F*** off our payroll?

Thanks,
Zo

Oh God, I forgot about his now zero trade value. What a sorry pathetic untalented slobbering puke. I suddenly want desperately for the XO Sniper to be real and to read about how they found his mangled body in a Dumpster near Hooker's Point.

I think Gary Roberts is great!!!

But seriously, folks, thank god we waived Jokinen to make room for him. If not, something REALLY bad might have happened. Did I mention he has a 2+million dollar cap hit?

Just think, that guy made 10k (PLUS actual salary) just for playing tonight and costing this team a game! He made what is a large part of some people's salaries to do what he did tonight. Isnt that awesome?!?!

I thought he played pretty well last night. That puke Cooke going down because of a face-wash was a bitch though.

This thread was the first thing I saw with my coffee this morning.

Nothing like a little early in the morning.

I watched the game on my DVR last night, with the game ending at about 1:30am. It's tough trying to get to sleep when you're so f'ing angry and disgusted. And then I get to read about it again in the morning.
