THANK YOU CAPTAINS FOR BEING CAPTAINS……
As I sat in the press box tonight, with my fellow colleagues, covering the games, I noticed some good old fashion enthusiasm on the Kapusta Kow Floor, it may have been the weather, ( a bit cooler out, than last week) or maybe it was the fact that it was the second night of hockey and everyone was just getting comfortable out there once again, almost ‘mid season form’, you can call it.
Caption “Guys are great and they are comfortable with each other, here Chevy, Spinner and Tunzie watch the festivities of last week, ‘Life is Good’ as a Tomcat“
Lovie made his season debut, as did Killer and the Turk. Junior, oh……well…..no Junior, sump pump problems apparently had him as a scratch for the night, “His house does not even have a basement”, stated May Day.
The Matador and Beep put on quite a show for the Nightingales, making passes, plays and scoring goals, the grind line of Doc and Kamikaze, held their own too, notching a few goals themselves.
The Warbles had impressive outings by Tunzie and Snowpants. The Swallows countered with the flying cousins, Sunny and Soupy.
Overall a good night of hockey, with minor disagreements on some interference and a ‘stepping on a stick’ that saw the Beepster go down.
Spinner also stepped on a step and went down, but all was good after on stage, and that is what counts.
The three star selection as Selected by La Bamba, the third star, May Day the Second star Razor and the first star Matador. Razor played exceptionally well, making save after save and keeping the Nightingales in the game.
A solid goes out to Cribzie who brought out a bottle of Crown (Just Because). ‘Put her there Cribzie’!
Ogie also gets a shout out for providing 14 beers…..also….. on a ‘just because’ basis and he is thousands of miles away.
The league would like to remind everyone to keep the body work to a bare minimum and to play the ball.
Is there a Windsor Tomcat NHL Hockey Draft next week? (for the regular season) I have not been told anything by Lovie or Hollywood, so I am assuming there is not.
Caption: Tomcats went to Battle Creek Michigan golfing a few weeks ago and played a beautiful course called Yarrow, here the boys are all prepped and ready to play, if you love to Laugh and Laugh,
drink a few beers and golf…..and drink a few beers, this trip may be for you.
Stevo is once again organizing a Tomcat Battle Creek Golf outing for September 2016. The dates are September 13,14,15 and 16. Stevo has sent out an email to anyone who has played before and or who has expressed interest in possibly going. He is looking for a fifty U.S. deposit to hold your spot if you are so inclined. Money and YOUR commitment must be in by November 1, 2015. If you have any questions, please see Stevo on a Tuesday night or text or email him.
It is an expensive trip, that is lots of fun. Take your panties off and go!
As you are sipping from the Crown Royal, do you think I could put my Harry Ballsonue.
