Hockey was fast with two goalies donning the pads, who normally don’t don the pads, Hurricane and Stevo and Falcon played goal. “I had goalies back out on me just today, leaves me stuck, leaves the organization stuck, we will be looking to get some new net minders in for next week, we can’t have guys who normally don’t play in net, play in net”. Stated Rocky
Hurricane, Falcon and Stevo, or is it, Tony Esposito, Chris Osgood and Dominck Hasek?
Thanks to these three for playing.
It was a hot night and I know in the press box it was hot, so I can’t imagine what it was like at floor level. “I use to play goalie all the time, but playing tonight, I have a new perspective on playing goal, I will never try to score from behind the net, it is just too unfair”, stated Stevo. who had a good first game, but then James Riemer like, he played like shit.
Tuesday nights are always happy and this Tuesday was no exception, but it was a sad time for Tomcat history. Stevo had to discard 25 years of St. Felix’s. On a happy note, the Turk, was able to bring in a number of St. Felix’s and passed them on to Rocky for safe keeping.
“Nothing can be done at this time,”Stated Sparky, “There is too much damage to them and they (St. Felix’s) cannot be saved.
Stevo tossing 25 years of St Felix’s into garbage as Sea Lion watches and sheds a tear. “It is important to have had a witness to the damaged St. Felix’s, they’re damaged I could see that ” indicated Sea Lion
Stevo shows the damaged St Felix’s that are to be discarded due to mould “We just can’t save them” Stated Stevo
What has been saved is most of the “drafts” over the years “this is a part of Tomcat history that needed to be saved and I’m so glad it was” stated ROCKY
Doc had a hard tumble to the wall, striking his head. Concussion protocol kicked in and Tomcat medical staff were able to assist, he will be staying at Kamikaze’s house in Kamikaze’s bed with Mrs. Kamikaze, so that Kamikaze can check on him every hour to make sure he is allright. It should be noted, that Kamikaze’s fall, was an accident, he went to shoot the ball and stumbled and fell against the wall. “I’m fine, but who is this Doc that you speak of”, Doc asked.
A real Tomcat will take an injury and play through it …
Beep also got injured, Tomcats have submitted video to the league so that it can be reviewed, they are not saying who they think injured the Beepster.
Rocky asked that acknowledgement be given to Sheep Dog and El Choppo for already brining their 24 MGD Bottles as their initiation case. “ You got to love that they brought their cases in, in the first 3 weeks of hockey, now that is some Tomcat Spirit” Stated Spinner.
Rocky also mentioned that Sunny and Tunzie have been arriving early at the Kapusta Kow and setting up, Excellent Tomcat Spirit boys!
Chevy also gets mention, for brining a case of MGD, on a ‘Just because’ basis, “Just because he is a great guy”. stated a beaming Hurricane.
Tomcat Christmas party at Rock Bottom will be held Saturday December 17. Details to follow.
Caption “A beautiful gesture by the Tomcats, Championed by Doc and Kamikaze, was to present to Stevo a table, that will have Tomcat signatures on it”
For now, it will be kept up on stage and used by the Tomcats, but its eventual home will be Stevo’s place.
While you are checking out the photos of the saved ‘Tomcat History’ and looking for your name on the 2011 draft, do you think I could put my Harry Ballsonue.
