When All Else Fails....Fake It

Game on....for the candidates for open seats on the Board of Directors and the Chairman's position. When it's all about winning 70 grand plus a seemingly unlimited supply of free dinners for friends and family and nights spent in expensive hotels, not to mention the power and control gained over more than 34,000 members of the Sault Tribe, some will do anything to get there.

When I inquired who may be running for chairman, the responses and logic behind the deductions were quite telling about the mindset of those already seated.

It was suggested that DJ Hoffman has lost an enormous amount of weight so that he would be more appealing and therefore, a better candidate for chairman. Maybe he did it for his health or maybe he wanted to fit better on a billboard and try to woo and appeal to anyone that could be suckered in with superficial ploys. It didn't work for John Edwards with his expensive 'do' or tailored suits because he lacked the substance to carry it off. If you can't win it on your abilities, you better try another tactic....like appearance.

Dennis McKelvie was sporting a polo style shirt recently instead of the usual Michigan Tshirt that he has been wearing for how many years?! Did he finally take the insults from the members seriously about his lack of professional attire or is this just a weak display of trying to appear professional? Did he finally get it through his head that 70 grand a year plus too many benefits warrants a certain degree of professionalism? Maybe he will even take that huge step and get himself some dentures. Did anyone check his shoes? Did he invest in dress shoes or was he still wearing the same old dirty athletic shoes? Get with it Denny...it's all about appearances, not substance. Don't let DJ beat you out because he looks better.

Speaking of fakes, someone by the name of Diesel Mechanic (what were your parents thinking)
left a glowing message regarding Fred Paquin on this blog. 'Dies' praised the accomplishments
of Paquin the accused Woman Beater/Sexual Harrasser/ Gaming Violater/Knock Himself in the Head and Fake Unconsciensiousness to Create an Alibi (a few years ago....funny story).

Dies also wanted to note that Aaron Payment's hair was an embarrassment to the tribe....huh?
Thanks to double dipping, Fred Paquin was able to afford a pretty nice rug to wear so maybe he can convince Payment to donate some of his nice locks to men like Fred who, otherwise, could not afford such a luxury.

Again, it's that superficial, lacking substance, it's all about appearances thing that will get someone elected. Who cares what they accomplish, as long as they look good and/or say the right things at the right time.

When I decided not to publish 'Dies' Pro Paquin comments, 'Dies' was overwhelmed with grief
letting me know in no uncertain terms what a F*****g B***h I am. Geez Freddie, nice friends you have, but then similar minds seem to find one another. By the way 'Dies'...is that your real name or are you just faking it?
