Game 20 Summary - From the sponge

Wow! What is going on in this league?

Head hunters and head bangers playing on the ice. Capt'n Dan being taken down like a "2 dollar Ho" in the back of Chuckies police car!
The word on the street, was it 1/2 cage or our lovable 6 pack goalie?
I have never to this point, read in Joey's "From the Crease", say, "Guys we all have to work the next day!" Maybe some of the players need a night out down in China town at the "Washy Washy- Rubby Rubby Room. I'm happy to hear they fought like the "Rock um Shock'n robots. They came close but No-ones head popped-off!

I love the fact that I was not the only victim with Liam taking the last beer.
Crab's and Daddy Pat, how's it feel when your thirsty and Liam has taken the last beer. And then add in the fact that he drove you and now you have to wait until he tells more stories while you watch him drink the last beer. I was told about a solution, keep an extra beer in the bag. The prince of swing told me about the great ideal "The Russ Master of Love" (So Buffy says)

Just another note: if anyone needs extra trim for a room they are redoing, go over to Iceman Wilson's. He has extra trim from his basement remodel. Talk'n to Tooms they had to replace some shorter pieces. Tooms said to Wilson: "Calk is not a fix to add to a short piece of trim"

And another note: If Dunfee is parking his car watch out for your toes!

And Yes Iggy is alive and well!

Game 20 Summary - from the crease

Not one word was added to the BLOG on Tuesday, guess that must have been the calm before the storm. With both benches full the action was fast and the bodies were flying. Just a reminder guys, everyone has to WORK in the morning (except Liam, unless it snows), so keep the sticks down & no cheap stuff. We don’t need any more injuries.

On to the game, Tuesday was a good night for the goalies, as I’m sure Mick will agree, The Pope & SIXPACK had many big saves keeping the game close and the score low. Krafty Craskey was finally able to bank one off the Pope’s ass to open the scoring about 40 minutes in. But that was not the only puck that bounced off a body part as Mick Cheney welcomed a guest skater I’ll call Youngblood by bouncing one off our new friends face. Youngblood was wearing only a helmet, no shield, so you kind of had to figure some kind of accident was going to happen, like when you ask a fat girl if she wants the last piece of cake. All in all it was a good game, nice to see the return of a few regulars to the ice as well as Crabby, behind the bench, after his stint as head coach of the Swedish Men’s hockey team at the Olympics. Here’s hoping he can return to the ice soon. Hats off to Billy Leach for his collection of Canadian soft drinks, because of his choices he has been issued a new nickname. After discussions with the Commish, his attorney, and the nickname board, {Daddy Pat, Liam,& SIXPACK} it was decided that Buckets will be Billy new handle. Other choices included Statue, Old Pants, & 12pack.

Till next week,

Remember guys play hard but keep it clean

SIXPACK

Beer and Marriage

I'll never understand women. After the last child was born, she told me we had to cut back on expenses, and that I had to give up drinking beer. I was not a big drinker, maybe a 12-pack on weekends, but reluctantly, I gave it up. Then one day I looked at the receipt after she came home from grocery shopping, and noticed that she had spent $45.00 on makeup!

I said, "Wait a minute! I've given up beer and you haven't given up anything!"

She said, "I buy that makeup so I can look pretty for you."

I told her, "Hell, that's what the beer was for!"

I don't think she'll be coming back!

Game 19 Summary - From the crease

Lots of room to get dressed to play this week as only the REAL MEN made it to hockey this valentine skate. Play did not suffer however as is was a spirited game with plenty of action at both ends. Although there were only three subs per side the pace was pretty quick. The White squad, led by The Commish, his attorney, Fricker & Liam all had points on the night but still ended up with a minus for the game. Russ “The Big Yellow Stud” & Daddy Pat were strong on defense while The Pope used his quick glove hand to stone several darkies on the evening. Brian “The New Guy” looked winded by the end of his third shift but continued to battle.

The Dark Side used timely scoring & good team defense to skate off with the win. The Bonner Connection was a factor at both ends as were Birdcage & his buddy. Johnny rollerpants was his usual steady self on the back line, but the cops were the story for the dark boys. Chuckie What Time scored goals, and created havoc anytime he was not on the bench, while Jaybird “The One Leg Wonder” was awesome on D, calmly keeping pucks away from SIXPACK & moved the puck into the rush with several nice outlet passes. It was nice to see Fricker use his newest weapon, a slapshot during the game, after getting a private lesson just before the skate.

There were very few players moving through SIXPACKS crease as a result of Crabby’s injury. Still sorry about that, get back soon, we hardly missed you during the game but drinking afterward just was not the same.

The save of the game came from Shooter when he showed up at 11:25 pm with a cooler in tow just as it looked like he would be suspended for alcohol abuse.

Just wanted to send out get well wishes to Iceman Wilson, The Cone apparently drives on the ice the same way he skates- he hits anything that moves. Hope everyone is okay Den.

Till Next Week

Game 18 Summary - from the crease

Amid a swirling gambling controversy, the TNHL dropped the puck Tuesday night & had another good skate. But the big story late Tuesday was the news that several big name players from both rosters were under investigation involving Super Bowl Block Pools. Daddy Pat was the only player officially named because his name, along with SIXPACK’S wife Donna, appeared on a high dollar block pool based in North Wildwood NJ. Blocks were said to cost a staggering $5. Sources tell the TNHL that almost every player in the league wagered, in some way, on the Super Bowl.

On to the game… White wins big. SIXPACK played like The Legendary Zamphier, Master of the Pan Flute, I Blew. Some nice goals were scored by the white boys, Krafty Kraskey, Billy “The Statue” Leach, Tommy “Motor Mouth” Dolan & “Shooter”, along with the rest. The dark squad played well enough to win, but this game came down to goaltending. Dennis St. Dennis was outstanding all night, frustrating the darkies all night, while SIXPACK did little to help his teammates. I played with a case of Myhedup Miassitus or My head up my ass!

Yo Liam, nice Hiney’s & Fricker thanks for the additional frosty one’s

Till next week

Game 17 Summary - from the crease

On a night that looked a little bit like the tryouts in the movie "Miracle", that is exactly what the dark club needed to pull out a victory. Despite a strong effort from the darkies defense the whites just had to much fire power. Led by Joni Pitkiinan & Peter Forsberg the white boys came in waves leaving the final tally @ 11-4. The Commish, playing general manager, made some key trades acquiring Daddy Pat & Carl The Hurricane. He also welcomed back Crabby & The Mayor of SW Philly J.D. , along with Tree, Mick & Liam. The Commish also scouted the rinks as far south as Wilmington Del. Looking for any player that had his youth clubs jersey number retired. With the Olympic break looming for the NHL, were not sure who will be coming out to skate on Dang’s wing next week.

I have to take the time to mention the boys on the dark squad, The Bonner Connection, Tommy D & Jeff, Jaybird, Russ, Johnny "Rollerpants", Johnny Sprinks, & Birdcage, with two dudes I don’t know all played great .all night. Never took a shift off, thanks. I also understand locker room # 2 turned into a sauna because of the steam coming out of Ko-Ko’s ears, yo Adam they were due, we’ll get them next week..

Dennis St. Dennis nice job in goal, kept the darkies from getting to close. Daddy Pat packs a fine cooler.

I will leave you with this quote “ You may have made a number of saves, but what about those soft goals you allowed?”

Till Next Week
