Teams:
Sheep Dog’s White Knights: Captain Sheep Dog, Tunzie, Soupy, Rocky, Stevo, Chico, Hurricane
Doc’s Black Demons : Doc Captain, Beep, Matador, Sunny, Sparky, Falcon, Rake
Kamikaze’s Red Rovers: Kamikaze Captain, Lovie, Snowpants, Jingles, Spinner, Turk, Hollywood
The hockey was very good and if you missed the night you missed a full night of excitement and knockdowns….(Easy Snowpants)…Originally it was thought that the Kamikaze Red Rovers won, but after further calculation, verified by Soupy and Snowpants, Sheep Dog’s White Knights won by a goal differential.
Nice to see Spinner back in the line up…….and he played so well that he got Star Status….the three stars as selected by La Bamba, the Third star, # 19 Stevo, the second Star, # 44 Spinner and the first star, #39 Chico.
Couple of injuries to report, The Rake went down like a sack of potatoes as he was chasing Tunzie down, the Tomcats are reporting a ‘lower body injury’, but from all accounts of the replays that I have seen, looks like a right knee situation and it looks like the Rake may be out for a few weeks. In another incident, the Matador, slashed the Kamikaze with a high stick, the refs did not catch it at the time. Kamikaze went into the infirmary and was stitched up and was back on the bench within a few minutes…”A good Canadian Boy”, Don Cherry had said. The league has reviewed the tape and it does show that the Matador did not have control of his stick and a fine of a case of beer (12 pack) has been levied against the Matador…to be brought out by the end of January, 2015

“After taking a stick to the ear by Matador, Kamikaze got stitched up and was back on the bench for more action ….good Canadian Kid….way Ta go Kamikaz ” Don Cherry
Super solid by Tunzie, brings a 24 Rolling Rock, ‘Just because’. Rocky gets a solid, for bringing a 24 of Rolling Rock….he was suppose to bring a 12…but hey, he does not even drink, and he brings a 24…change that to a super solid. Stevo’s night for beer and he brought Rolling Rock as well…three cases sitting up on stage……
As far as solids go, Spinner, gets a super solid too…a few weeks back, minor leaguer Hicksee needed a pair of hockey gloves and Spinner gave him his….if that is not the Tomcat Christmas Spirit, then I don’t know what is….”It was a Festive Miracle” as Hollywood would say.
Solid move that should have been mentioned last week was that Spanky had brought a bottle of Forty Creek a few weeks back, the boys cracked it open last week and from what I was told, it was a tasty treat. So great job Spanky…love that you are back in with the Tomcats…love to have you come and play soon.
Great time at the Christmas party and Sunny, Chevy and Snowpants should get ‘Contributor Award’ consideration come tournament time for organizing such a fantastic event. Snowpants always takes the time to organize a game show, and that has to be mentioned in this blog, cuz Snowpants really really cares about the Tomcats, and has become an extremely valuable member of the Tomcats both on and off the Kapusta Kow Floor.

Pitbull who is a big fan of the Windsor Tomcats attending their Christmas Party and just like his videos …surrounded him self with beautiful …case in point Roxy and DJ Broozzer Holly …
Just to show you what great guys, Matador and Tunzie are…..

Tunzie and Matador ( not shown ) left their Rock Bottom gift cards for other Tomcats to enjoy ….that is the Tomcat Christmas Spirit !
An email has been sent out to everyone by Doc for the upcoming tournament, to be held February 28,2015. The cost is $20 and you get another Tomcat Tee Shirt, beer and three and half hours of rocking excursive. If you are in, let Doc know if you are in. You need to let Doc know before January 7, 2015 as the draft goes the first Tuesday night back, January 13. The draft order goes December 16, right after hockey, on stage, before the Tomcat Christmas gift is distributed. Ho Ho Ho…..
I want to leave you today, with the words from a Bruce Springsteen song, they are one of my favourite lines in any song, it goes, “Barefoot girl, sitting on the hood of a Dodge, drinking warm beer in the soft summer rain”. How is that the Tomcats? well, it could go something like this, “Barefoot guys, sitting on the stage, drinking beer on ice, in the Kapusta Kow”. Does it get any better than that?
Hey, whilst you are drinking a beer, eating Kielbasa and cheese, stitching up the Kamikaze and helping the Rake of the Kapusta Kow Floor, could I put my Harry Ballsonue.
