The Burketionary

Post by Cap'n Clutch on Fri Jul 10, 2009 9:16 am

Disclaimer: This is in no way a reflection of Brian Burke the man but, rather the mythical figure that he is portrayed as by both media and fans alike.

This was started up in the Leafs sign Walin thread and I decided to make a thread out of it. New words to describe Burke's "greatness" is the idea.

Geniousy - The amazing brilliance and seemingly magical wizardy that is Brian Burke.

Windbaggery - Most if not all of what comes out of Burkes mouth.

Douchebaggery - The act of being Brian Burke.

Burkatory Rape -- (noun) the act of pillaging your prospect farm while garnering the reputation for being a great GM.

Not to be confused with

Burkenation -- (noun) the act of walking into a deep team and prospect farm built up for you by someone else, and then taking all the credit for building a Stanley Cup winning team.

Because it's a Dictionary of Terms describing Burke and Burke-isms.

Kind of like the Becktionary from Futurama.

Burkefired: When Burke tries to weasel a small trade from another GM by threatening to draft a player he thinks the other GM wants, only to find out later that he missed out on getting a Pronger-like towering defenseman.

Burke got Murray-ed.

Burke wants to be like Murray, but can't.
