The Leafs Defense- WTF?

All this talk about Burke's scrotum is making me really uncomfortable.

Dude, do you notice how the guy with the PhD in English never plays spellchecker / grammarian with anyone on this site? Probably best to just let things be. Just sayin'.

They're totally burying Anton Stralman here, who's probably their best defenceman prospect (after Schenn, if you still count him a prospect). Don't get it.

First, scrotumnosing isn't even English; it's Burkian, which is not even a real language. Second, you invented that word, so it's not even proper Burkian. So your PhD in English lit gives you zero Burkredits.

My thesis supervisor's father was an English professor. You should have seen all the red ink all over my draft. And I thought I was *pretty good*.

You should see the manuscripts I edit for the publishing house I work for after I'm done with them. To say nothing of my students' papers.

so one quote-string can go from Burke's scrotum to editing manuscripts...

I think I should have taken the blue pill instead...

Burke says Kaberle will likely remain a Leaf:

Well, they now have a chance to move the puck up. Still, I think Kaberle has dropped off since McCabe moved, and has not been the same since that Janssen hit.
