WEEKLY UPDATE

Well this week was much more crowded that the first week as we welcomed back veterans Rusty, Crafty Craskey, Curty Downlow,& Bill "Tony Romo" Ryan, even The Milk Carton Kid returned, but the most important guy returning a week late was Tim. Due to a hockey bag packing snafu, Tim had to return home to get his hockey pants. This turned out to be a blessing in disguise, more on that later, now on to the game. The Commish set the line up & posted them on the locker room doors, no one knew what to expect & one guy, JD, didn't know the difference between white & dark. The squads appeared to be even on paper & for a little while the were on the ice, then the White boys took over & filled the Dark net getting very little resistance from Sixpack. The Whites scored on several nice passing plays as well as on shots from the outside. It was one of those nights for me I could have fallen in a barrel of tits & come up sucking my thumb. This terrible effort topped only the miserable performance from last week, I'm pretty sure the goals against average is around 15.00. Down at the other end Tree continued to shine turning away good scoring chances with perfect positioning & aggressive play. The rest of the Whites played a great team game, led on D by Johnny Long Pants & Tony Romo along with Rusty & Murph frustrated the Dark forwards into bad decisions & turnovers & pushed the play to the forwards. Crabby, Crafty, Chuck & Fricker all found the back of the net at least once while Spongee & JD added assists. The Darkies turned in a gutsy effort but had little to show for all their hard work, as usuall Daddy Pat & The Commish played each shift like it was their last & tried everything to get on the board. Liam hustled up a pretty goal off a sweet pass from
Brit, tipping it home from the top of the crease. Curty was back looking comfy on the wing but is still looking for that scoring touch & J-Bird stood tall against a relentless White wave. Shooter continues to impress returning from his hip surgery as he is quickly getting his game back. Quiet Brian once again played a Mike Richards type game, this guy does everything well except handle his GLOUTENS, which are hiding in beers all over the place. Which leads me to this weeks MVP, this guy not only plays the game at warp speed, he also averted a sure disaster by jumping to the front of the BEER LIST. While returning home to get his hockey pants off the scarecrow he put up for Halloween, Tim Cunningham saved the day & picked up two cold cases with ice for after the game. Thank you Tim aka TCB (Taking Care of Beer), great save. After two bad outings, I have done some soul searching & I'm determined to return to form. The truth is The Commish has been searching the minor leagues & is close to signing a new goalie/rapper out of Chester, M.C. Fuhr, his hockey card is at the top of the page. I have to start playing better.
