Yes, I, too, was impressed when I read the above statement, but.....

Gee, Uncle Kenny sure knows how to get this group riled up, doesn't he?  I
had to read the line a couple of times before I posted it.  I couldn't
BELIEVE he actually used that word!!!  How dare he insult the Core brothers
that way?!?  I guess that adds another strike to the list for Uncle Kenny.

Good question.  It seemed to me that Jack and Jenn are still third string
to Corday.  How does that line go, "You never know what you've got until
it's gone" or something along those lines.  Anyway, one of these decades
Kenny's going to wake up, or atleast come out of his comatose state, and
realize just how badly he has screwed things up.

I seriously doubt it.  I think it is more like they will at the minimum be shown
on Monday, Wednesday, and Friday.

There was absolutely NO mention of those characters in the article.  So,
your guess is as good as mine.

That's a good one, MP!!  It got quite a chuckle out of me, thanks.
