Will You Miss Me When I’m Gone?  

And the Ram Truck goes to...
Seton!

If for some reason Dan didn’t make it through surgery, he has a plan, to be buried 15 feet deep because that’s the distance from the free throw line to the basket.  The Danettes jumped in that Chris Mannix would be ready to fill in right away on Monday, although Fritzy thought they should enjoy a three day weekend then return to work on Tuesday.  Dan said he would let Seton have his Dodge Ram. Although Paulie truly has been the biggest admirer, Seton is Dan’s favorite.  Dan also wanted to know what the headlines might be.  The mock headlines from Seton, the fans, a few that would like to succeed Dan and Fritzy were some of the best.  People were truly inspired. Rick Eisen felt he should be the one in the on deck circle should the position become open.  Maybe a quick call to Dan’s boss would move along the process.  Rich and Dan did wonder if deer antler spray or HGH would get Dan on the mend sooner.  Dan did say his arm was going to be in a sling and he might need some help.  That was an open invitation for an opportunity to move up in the 2013 MVD rankings. The Arcade Fire Tribute this week it went out to Dan’s surgeon – “Damn I hope you’re good!” and his anesthesiologist “I better wake up!”

Speaking of MVD Rankings  

How many times should this have
gone to someone other than
Fritzy? 1? 2?

The topic of who’s the most important Danette came up again today because Fritzy was not firm on his answer the day before.  Then the wording changed from important to MVD.  Once that happened, the whole game changed.  The vote went around the room again and you could not vote for yourself.  Paulie voted for Seton and everyone else voted for Paulie.  This is interesting because Dan has never declared Paulie MVD.  The closest he came was the year of Charlie Sheen, but it was given to Fritzy for one of his hospital stays instead.  This little team building exercise backfired and didn’t leave anyone with a good feeling including Dan.  He wondered if his sympathy for Fritzy clouded his judgement in deciding MVD, especially the Charlie Sheen year.  Hopefully this will give him a clearer perspective at the end of this year when he chooses MVD.

Chris Mannix from SI/SI.com will be filling in for Dan Friday.  

Dan plans to be back in the man cave Monday.
