Another Season Begins

Well Gents, here we go again!  


Another hockey season is upon like a Fat Kid on Smarties!  It's nice to see everyone survived the summer (Monsoon) we had. Also the trend of adding Girth to our overall lineup each season hasn't slowed.  Some have contributed more than others, and for that we thank you.


This year started off with resounding 6-1 Ass Whoopin' of the Green Bastards.  Early indications of the action didn't leave much room for hope, seeing how we barely left our own end.  New guy between the pipes, Ron, was probably saying WTF have I got myself into.  I gotta play behing these Monkeys all year! We soon started to straighten our shit out and head the other way.  We were lead once again by PA with a hat trick.  Because of this he is absolved from his attocious email sent earlier in the day. 


We got up to 3-0 lead and the game settled in.  Ron made some great saves through this stretch and never let them get any momentum.  Then my moment of Glory arrived....well...it arrived after an embarrassing play where I couldn't outskate the D on which I had a pretty good head start, and was hauled down on a breakaway. The ref called a penalty shot!  To which my immediate reaction was,"Can I call a time-out? Because I need about 5 minutes to suck in 3/4 of the oxygen in the building and my burning legs are incapable of lifting my bloated fat ass of the ice right now"!....what's that?...no, can't do that.  Alrighty then, off to center Ice we go.


Obviously I wanted to score to help win the game, but the real motivation came from knowing if I MISS....there are 15 of my so-called "Buddies" who'll rip me mercilessly until Xmas! And really that's the way it's gotta be.  So I dug deep into my bag of tricks...Ok...it's more like a purse...and it's not very deep.  I barreled down on Rob The Bastard...a couple of moves...a head fake for good measure and I put one by him on the backhand...Whew!


From there we cruised.  John & Karl had a tic tack...tick tack...another tic tack...and Toe goal. And PA finished off the night by completing his hat trick. Final 6-1 for the good guys.
