“Failure is a part of success. There is no such thing as a bed of roses all your life. But failure will never stand in the way of success if you learn from it.”

Teams:
Soupy Black Aces: Falcon, Soupy, Chico, The Lizard (New Guy) La Bamba, Kamikaze, Stevo, Tonto and Bullwinkle
Sunny White Knights: The Terror, Sunny, Hurricane, Rocky, Bulldog, Chevy, Snowpants and Shack.
If you ou did not play last night, you missed some great hockey. Old time hockey, no clock and the games were up to 7. (Sparky to fix clock next week).
So the Sunny White Knights came out like gang busters and took the first two games, 7-2 and 7-1. Soupy in addressing his team before the third game talked about learning from the mistakes…”we are getting beat by some pretty boys from Wheatley. C’mon guys, lets not let them sweep us.” That’s when the Black Aces came out and took game 3, 7-3. No hacking, no whacking, just some good clean passes, some good shots on net and some fine, fine hockey.
Bullwinkle paid his initiation case, 24 bottles of MGD…thanks Bullwinkle!
New guy, The Lizard, did well, he started to finally get a feel for the game in the third.
If you can’t make hockey next week, contact Rocky.
Other News From Training Camp
In case you missed it, the guys that went to the Tomcat Training camp this year got Windsor Tomcat Underwear, compliments of the Big Easy, Sea Lion and Stevo. “We were given these bags and we all opened them at once and wow, there they were, Tomcat underwear. I have been suggesting that for the past 15 years,” an exuberant Sparky said.
Stevo has two pairs left over, a Large pair and a XXL. If you are interested in purchasing a pair, your cost is $15. Money will go to the Tomcats.
If you are thinking about Hank Aaron’s quote and asking yourself, what NHL team did he play for, do you think, whilst you are thinking about that, that I could put my Harry Ballsonue.
