A Letter of Proposal

Dear Matt Ellis,

I know we don't know each other very well. (Well, I don't know you very well, and you don't know me at all.) But I was hoping I could ask you something.

Even though I was very pleased with the Sabres' win over the Bruins, I'm still very wary of trusting them to keep it up. And even though I love Yo-Yo deep down, we're still on the outs because of him missing four (4!) open nets yesterday. 

So, I was wondering if maybe you wanted to marry me? You know, for a little while?

You played like a fox yesterday, a fox that is very good at spunky hockey, and I would like to reward you accordingly.

Please circle YES, NO, or MAYBE.

Best,
Gambler

P.S. This is totally how marriage works, right?

I don't see how he could say no, really. Well he already has that one wife... eh, she'd understand.

Of course she will, Anne! After all, it's only temporary. And who doesn't need more wives?

This is EXACTLY how Mark proposed to me. It's sure to work, Gambler :)
