This entire discussion is a clever, backhanded comment on the complete lack of trade bonanza-inesss.

What's everyone taking? I'm doing a concentration in Philosophy, Public Affairs and Ethics.

UTM? I just, just applied for a one-year teaching gig there. Glad to hear its so much smaller.

oh god. Will that not turn you into a Leafs fan ?!?

Hells no. I'll just have to get the NHL Game Centre. Other possible work destinations include Florida and Louisiana, and I have no intention of becoming a TB, FLA, or NFL fan.

Tampa Bay is an interesting team to watch. I could get into it. They'd always be my #2 team though.

Here's a bombshell: Remember when Dreger and Bob McKenzie said last week that Ruutu would be traded "this week?" Now this week is "this week" which was supposed to be last week. I would say "more to come" but that is now my signature because there really always is "more to come" whenever I post something.

My potential work destination in FLA would be about 100 miles in between Miami & Tampa. I Dung you not -- in my phone interview, one of the members of the search committee, knowing I was Canadian, mentioned this fact to me as a selling point.

Good luck in the job search.

I'm doing a B.Ed. at Ottawa. All those rumours you heard about the teacher education program being a joke are true. It's pretty painful. One teacher is particularly bad. He likes to talk about how he uses humiliation in the classroom to "motivate" students.

Sounds like Mr. Dee haha

I haven't heard much about the B.Ed program, and my brother's a H.S. teacher. I guess it depends on the teacher's you have and the teacher's college you are at.

All I know is that the teaching industry (at least in Ontario) is over-saturated.

Have you done any placements yet?

I think you really want to go to "Tirade Bonanza 2012" thread, don't you?

I took a guess a while back that Ruutu will re-sign with Carolina - I still think that's a huge possibility.

Your guess was much more specific than that.

We'll see. So, just to refresh my memory, you win if he re-ups in Carolina for more than 2 years at more than $4M per, and I win in every other scenario. Got it.

Yeah, that's it.

We'll see. What's your actual guess out of curiousity?
