TOMCAT HISTORY (Warsaw assoc press): I finally was able to sneak by Security and catch another TOMCAT game, having had to sneak in as Tomcat management had blacked out the feed to local TV stations. A historic night all right with Razor netting what I will refer to as a OFFICIAL shutout, taking nothing away from a recent 4-0 shutout by the Falcon – who insiders insisted was suffering from a undisclosed lower joint injury – However, Tomcats always play to 7 goals, and that makes the Razors an official shutout. Watching Razor play, it was hard not to feel sorry for the Black Cats, which included a rare appearance in net by Skippy. His appearances may become about as non existent as the departed do-do bird, dropping all three contest 7-3, 7-0, and 7-2. It seemed after the second game shutout the Blackcats just were never able to recover – nor was their goaltending. I tried to catch up with Stevo, the Commissioner after the game, but he fled the building very quickly after muttering – No comment. Inside sources speculated he was simply too depressed with the evenings events. Other sources also indicated next weeks year end game could include a mini-tournament, with Skippy receiving another shot at redeaming himself. Speculation is the mini-tournament hinges on the number of players attending. Tomcat fans can only hope to catch a glimpse of what the 2011 Tournament will look like, with a sneak peek at some of the newer Tomcats, and how they react to tournament play. If a tournament does occur, it would be worth the admission fee to catch the last game of the season – and see if any player really shines and improves his position in the upsoming January tournamnet draft. Until the next time I can find a open unattended door into the arena…
