I swear I walked in, took a peak at the teams and went: ‘Hmmm: the algorithm just might be off on this one’.
‘Algorithm be damned’ however cause the scrappy Sunny’s Snowmen Featuring Chevy, Animal, Stevo, Big Ned, Skippy and Bender in the pipes came back from a first period 3 goal deficit and squeaked out a 6-5 nail bitter.
Second game, same as the first? Not so much as the speedy Matador’s Mantles with Rocky, Chico, Bullwinkle, Kamikazi, The Green Giant and Terror securing the net blew the game open; which was even more impressive when you consider they lost Rocky to a rogue ball to the face. While Rocky had to leave the game he is expected to make a quick recovery and one player was heard muttering, ‘Well so much for looking good in those upcoming Christmas photos’.
Maybe Rocky going down was an omen, cause during the 2nd game blowout a high rising ball felled Stevo with about 5 minutes left to play. Thankfully with a 8-3 lead the boys decided to call it.
I caught up with Chevy after the game and asked his thoughts; ‘Well they got all the players with speed, and we got all the players with good looks’.
I know there’s been other ‘questionable’ algorithm nights’; but whatever magic is required to make ‘even’ teams seems for the most part to work out.
I expect Rocky will be back next week, but until then while you were wondering if I made team names up with a Christmas theme in mind, I noticed your Handzonmecac.
