oh, what fun it all would be
More responses to things from my poll of last Friday:
amberlynne wanted me to talk about how awesome an AU with sam, dean and jim halpert as hockey players would be
That would be SUPREMELY AWESOME. I mean, I don't know how you'd slot Jim in, but you could! But I am DYING for an SPN HOCKEY AU where the Winchester brothers are, basically, like the Hansen brothers (and dude, you know Dean loves "Slapshot"; we just haven't heard about it yet), except with more ghost hunting and porn. They would probably play for, like, the Albany River Rats, and of course, Sam is the star center, 6'5 of pure talent that makes the scouts weep, but because he keeps getting hauled off by Dean to hunt ghosts, he never quite fulfills his potential. Dean is a grinder, and he plays left wing on Sam's line, mostly because he'll beat the shit out of anyone who tries to hurt Sam. (though possibly Dean could be a defenseman. I bet he'd be really good at playing the point, joining the play when the opportunity arose, and yet fast enough to get back when the puck got turned over). And Dean would love the puck bunnies and they would love him. Jim would be another guy who hasn't quite lived up to his potential, and Sam would be all, "Jim, you could be the first line center on this team, you could get called up to the show [do they call it "the show" in hockey, or is that just baseball?], don't waste your potential like I am, 'cause of my stupid brother." And Jim would just be all, "There's this girl, Pam..." And then there would be some kind of dangerous supernatural thing hunting Pam, and Sam and Dean would have to save her, and Jim would get to help, and Pam would fall into his arms, and then he would be able to focus on hockey, and the story would end with him being called up to play on the Devils during the playoffs.
Someone should totally write this for us.

He was a classy guy - played with one team his whole career, and how often do you see that nowadays? He was talented and gracious, and they don't really make 'em like that much any more.

leviathan0999 wanted me to talk about Danny Tripp having an argument with Josh Lyman over Studio 60's portrayal of the Santos White House. Special attention to Josh's dislike of how Harriet Hayes plays the First Lady. Cameo appearances by Matt Albie are permissible.
But I don't really have anything to say. I stopped watching Studio 60 before the hiatus, and my lasting impression of Danny is as a creepy stalker who won't take no for an answer. I think Josh would call Danny after the skit aired, even though the press secretary would be all, "Josh! No!" but she wouldn't have the same Josh-restraining powers that CJ had, and the next week, Josh would be the one lampooned on the show.

Now I have actual work to do. I do not approve!
