Runs On Duncan

wait. hold up. stop. halt. so this Lindsey girl was supposed to marry Seabs? or did i read that article completely wrong?

Fri, 09 Nov 2012 18:21:57 -0500

No — that’s just Google Translate fucking it up, as usual. (I didn’t fix it because that would require giving a shit.) Apparently, Toews took her as his plus-one to Seabs’ wedding this summer. I guess.

brentseabrookshair:

Happy Birthday to our favorite shot-blocking Swedish meatball and the sneaky little rat bastard with a black belt in death glaring.

GIVE THESE GUYS SOME LOVE TOO OK?

Don’t act like you don’t believe Hammer has a meatball throne, or Bolly has a chair made of the bones of his vanquished enemies.

Where the Blackhawks want Kane to walk to. I guess. I don’t know.

This is some amazing Photoshop work, if I do say so myself.

Who's playoff beard (or attempt at a beard) are you most excited to see?

Tue, 03 Apr 2012 16:11:33 -0400

I can’t wait to see the rookies’ playoff beards. After Nick Leddy’s surprisingly manly beard from last year (seriously, is he part Viking?), I want to see who will grow a better beard than Kane and Toews this year. (Probably all of them, but Jimmy Hayes’s beard will reign supreme, I think.)

Duncan Keith was suspended for five games, so I took the time to update ROD’s banner.

So I’m checking the analytics for ROD because I’m a giant nerd, and I’m looking through my traffic sources when I stumble upon, well, this.

Someone searched for “duncan keith wife” on Google. They were led to that. Uh-huh.

Hi Kat! In your review of the Blackhawks preseason games, you mentioned the people tweeting that there was a live band at the UC. Um... is that the same band that was playing at Training Camp? Because I could do without them. Thanks.

Sun, 25 Sep 2011 22:11:36 -0400

I believe it’s the same band. I’ll find out for myself on Wednesday, but yeah. If it is, I’d rather have the terrible power play music. :|

HELP WANTED: New Minion Needed

Wed, 31 Aug 2011 13:52:07 -0400

My minion, Hannah, is leaving for Europe for a semester. I had a temporary minion, Andy, but his real job is kicking his ass, so he won’t be able to fill in.

So this is my cry out to the Internet. I need a new minion before the beginning of the season!

Your duties as my minion will include:

Writing up pre- and post-game articles on the site for most Blackhawks home games (because I will be at the games), using these posts as templates: Pre-Game, Post-Game
Posting occasional “Your Daily Cup” link dumps and breaking news when I can’t get to them.
Fetching my slippers, my newspaper, and my coffee

Requirements:

Must have experience with Wordpress
Decent writing skills (I’ll edit to a point, but if I have to take a red pen to all of your work, just don’t apply, okay?)
A sense of humor — this is obviously the most important requirement.

If you’re interested in applying for the minion position, please send me a link to existing writing you have done OR a writing sample to runsonduncan@gmail.com. If you’re sending in a writing sample, this is the subject:

Write up the Blackhawks home opener against the Stars, using the pre-game format linked to above. Pretend that they’ve already won against the Stars in overtime the night before.

I LOVE your blog and tweets! Your sarcasm and wit entertain me no end! Thanks for your dry humor! Keep up the great work—nice to get hear the inside stuff for those of us not in Chicago (I’m actually stuck in Nashville).

Sun, 14 Aug 2011 20:39:31 -0400

Thanks! :) I appreciate the kind words, really.

The GIF is from Anna.

The song is the Swedish National Anthem — er, “Ikea” by Jonathan Coulton.

I put the two together, like peanut butter and chocolate meeting for the first time.
