... kill him and people rich enough to hide all evidence of his existence. This guy not only got into the locker room, he got onto the team bus with the Mara family, onto the field for the celebration with the Lombardi Trophy, back into the locker room after the celebration, and best of all, he didn't get his head bashed in by angry security guards! The sheer fact that he got away with it and kept getting away with it is nothing short of pure, unadulterated Badass.

More on the Habs game later today, if we can stomach it; Many other games were played, the highlight of which was the Wings finally losing; Here's an old video to cheer you up.

Much like the Arizona TV reporter who snuck into the suite where Archie Manning was watching Super Bowl XLII - only more so - this is yet another lesson in one of the verities of life: Pretend you know what you're doing, and you can get away with almost anything.
