The Continuing Adventures of The Scottish Geisha
Chapter 73, Installment 207: The Case Against Shanahan
All New Installment! March 23rd, 2004
The Scottish Geisha was never one to mince words. "That
awful hockey person from the Red Wings, that Shanahan, he needs to go,"
she announced imperiously.
Go? Go where?
Anywhere, it seemed, but near The Sharks.
"That dreadful person," The Scottish Geisha fumed. "He
better steer clear of our little Surly or else."
Or else what we declined to ask. .
We knew better.
The Scottish Geisha was becoming quite distracted as the regular NHL season
neared an end and the playoffs loomed.
"We should be able to overtake Colorado," she mused as she poured
over the most recent stats, "We just need to avoid unpleasant people
like that Shanahan"
What Brendan Shanahan, left winger for the Detroit Red Wings, had ever
done to The Scottish Geisha remained a mystery.
The Scottish Geisha declined to elaborate. "One would think, at his
advanced age, that Shanahan would have learned to be....more
pleasant," The Scottish Geisha stated.
After Macro Strum's injury and the international furor over Todd Bertuzzi's
brutality on the ice, we could understand The Scottish Geisha's concern.
"Surly will be much concerned with the upcoming play-offs. He doesn't
need this kind of..distraction," she added.
Knowing both teams, Sharks and Red Wings, would be going to the play-offs,
and knowing how The Scottish Geisha had a tendency to latch on to Certain
Issues, we suddenly, in all our worldly wisdom, felt a tad
bit sorry for Shanahan.
