BOOM

Press Conference, week of December 28th – January 3rd 1. Amazing series against Miami with the big sweep. Was the Miami series what you expected? Yes, it was a surprise result if I'm being honest. I was always hopeful that we would defeat the Marauders, but to sweep to victory I didn't expect that at all. 2. We’re onto round two in a matchup with Philadelphia I believe. What is the strategy to taking on the top team in the East? The Reapers are always a tough opponent and it will be a hell of a battle against them. I think our defense needs to shut down their great forward group and allow our guys to counterattack whenever possible. 3. Who was the MVP of round one? For San Diego? For the VHLM? Based purely on points, probably Fertitta from Halifax. For us, I don't want to say Odinsson, so I'll go with Endrizzi. As for the VHLM, I'm staying local ; Scotty Kaberle has been awesome for us and has been a points machine despite being a blueliner. 4. With Chicago and Moscow moving on, what is your prediction for the Continental Cup of the VHL? I never like predicting a series at such an early stage. Despite my dislike of Vancouver, they look good. 5. Which series has surprised you most so far across both, the VHL and VHLM? I'd say Seattle against Chicago. It surprised the hell out of me and has caused some controversy amongst certain members. 6. With the New Year coming, what are some goals you have for our next loop around the sun? Finish my house, get in a better head space and live a happier life. Maybe this is the year. 2020 can fuck off.

He is. Approved for week ending January 3.

That's not very diplomatic old chum. Tally ho, what what.

Special shout out to @matt sovick for his classy comment in discord.

Commiserations Miami. Great roster and GM but just not how STHS works. Best of luck next season. Well done fellow Marlins. Plenty of work left to do, but proud of the season so far.

With the postage speed, he might not get it until 2022.

So Berocka, you were saying.....

I'm just here to see if your team is worthy of my player.

Finally got the time to listen to this today. Nice one. Boot, your singing is sensational. I was thinking AvgAL would be my new name for Al. I liked the style of this one @dasbootwith your intro and then the recorded conversation with your guest. Look forward to hearing more in the future.

Your opinions on fruit were fascinating.

I want my money back!

Great work.

1. As the 3rd seed, we matchup with Miami for the postseason first, something we expected dating back a few Pressers ago. How do you think we stack up with the defending champions? I think we can hold our own and are capable of sweeping them to send them out of the playoffs. 2. Interesting development to close the season with Philly taking a bit of a slump to finish. With that said, is Philadelphia more likely to be eliminated Halifax/Yukon or do you believe Mexico City will be upset in the first round? Explain? I do not see Mexico City being kicked out in round one. They are too good for that. Philadelphia has been shaky but they are still a good team. 3. In a heavy in history matchup between Saskatoon & Las Vegas, who do you think has an edge in that series? It will be a great series for sure. Las Vegas added a lot to their roster just prior to the end of the season, but Saskatoon are very capable. 4. Who has been San Diego’s most UNDERRATED player this season? It could be any number of players, but our goalie Olsen is not appreciated very much. 5. With many of our Marlins going to the VHL next season, how do you feel about where you’re headed and how your VHL team finished this season? I don't know where I will be playing next season. I am happy for all of the Marlins players that will be going to play at the next level. 6. Finally, a Christmas question. Is Die Hard a Christmas movie? No, no, in all seriousness, how will you be spending the holiday? I do not have a television so am not sure about the first question. As for any plans, I think I will be by myself crying into my eggnog.
