A reminder to all Tomcats that, as per usual, there is no Tuesday Nigjt Hockey after the tournament. If you show up this Tuesday, you will have to play against yourself.

HOCKEY TUESDAY NIGHT
Very good hockey, with the Cribzie Beef Baron’s taking the night with a victory over the Sundowners in the final game.
The Terror, handing out beers to the Cheetah’s at the end of the night before the final game, has been fined a case of beer for doing so. “You know I do not mind bringing the beer, the boys played very well in front of me so for me to bring a case, so that we can enjoy a beer together, it is a very small price to pay,” stated The Terror.
INJURY FRONT (For the tournament)
Tunzie is injured and is being replaced by Shack. Slim Jim is unable to make it and is being replaced by Big Ned.
Big Easy is a game time decision. The Terror was injured last night and it is not known if he will be able to play on Saturday. “We will look at all options in replacing The Terror, both Stevo and Chico have indicated that they would play in net, if need be, it would come to which Captain would release his player from the team, so that he could replace The Terror in between the Pipes,” stated Tournament Coordinator Kamikaze.
The schedule for Saturday is not out yet, the information will become available on the Saturday. Everyone is asked to be there for 8 a.m.
A VERY VERY FRIENDLY REMINDER
The upcoming tournament is for fun. Yes, play hard do your best, but don’t ruin any friendships. Beer is to be provided by Tomcats. Tournament cost is $25 per player and that includes the goalies. Paid to your team Captain. $10 for pizza is your cost for food. Pay Jingles on the Saturday. If you plan to partake in beers, please have a DD set up.
Tournament starts at 8:30.
And here is an idea, taken from the CHL (Coloured Hockey League) Use the bible as your rule book. I have included a link for your reading enjoyment. (Thank You May Day)
https://www.thecanadianencyclopedia.ca/en/article/coloured-hockey-league
“There are two agenda items for this tournament:
1) you come to score goals, and;
2) you come to drink beer.
”I come to do the ladder,” stated a grinning Sheep Dog.
THIS JUST IN…..BREAKING NEWS….BREAKING NEWS
All 31 NHL teams have been contacted and not one single team, NOT ONE SINGLE team is sending a scout to this tournament. Keep that in mind, when you play the ball this Saturday.
Stanely’s Cup Champion, the Finner Hard Ballars. Doed’s, Uwe, Spinner, Jimmy Elbows, Finner and Sparky and Bulldog front Row
Finner Sips from the Stanley’s Cup, “MVP, MVP, MVP.”
SPECIAL THANKS
Special thanks go out to Sheep Dog, Stevo, Spanky, The Terror and Sunny for coming early and bringing out the empties from the Tomcat room. Special thanks also goes out to Soupy who took the shirts home last week to wash. This week, special thanks goes out to Chico who took the shirts home to wash. Snowpants always puts away the sticks. Shack put away the clock. If you come late, just sit there, play and then don’t do anything, are you really the solution or the problem?
Hockey starts at 6:30. That is something that you should have planned for all week. Last night the Tomcats started at 6:50p.m. “That to me is total bullshit” stated Stevo, If you work till 6, then sure you might be a few minutes late, but the Tomcats have noticed that they have been starting later and later as time goes on. Should the Tomcats start at 6, so that guys will show up for 6:30?
STEVO NACHO OPEN
If you are interested in playing in the Stevo Nacho Open golf tournament this year, see Stevo. Entry fee is $10. It is a two man scramble.
TICKETS
Keep selling your tickets. Bring the money in as soon as you can.
TOURNAMENT OBSERVATIONS
Once again, you need to really have a hard look at what the tournament is about. It is about fun and getting together on a cold February Saturday. “What I always have found is that it galvanizes friendships. At first with your tournament team, but then later on stage having a few pops, you become closer with everyone. Its a great day we don’t need any shenanigans,” says Sparky.
When you are checking out the photo of the guy pouring the beer into Stanely’s Cup and your saying to yourself, ’no way that is Sparky’, Do you think I could put my Harry Ballsonue.

TOMCATS FOREVER !
by Harry Ballsonue
“Blackbird singing in the dead of night, take these broken wings and learn to fly, all your life, you were only waiting for this moment….at the Kapusta Kow to arrive.” Beatles
TEAMS:
Tonto’s Bird Wrangles – Tonto, Doc, Killer, Kamikaze, Bullwinkle and Chico
Sparky’s Clock Makers – Sparky, Big Hilton, Squid, Sunny, Rocky, Helios and Shack
Soupy’s Brew Masters – Soupy, Kramden Chevy, Anvil, Cribzie and Stevo
Very good hockey last night, with some tight games, fun times at the Kapusta Now Palace. Even the Blackbird enjoyed the game. One game went into overtime, which is always exciting.
There is only one week left before the tournament, you want to play in order to get into the groove.
If you can’t make it, let Rocky know.
Thanks to the three goalies, who are not regulars for playing goal. Chico, Skuz and Stevo. “I thought all three goalies played great”, stated Rocky, “It is nice to have guys who can play in net and help the good of the Tomcats out”.
INVESTIGATIVE JOURNALISM
As it turns out, Chevy was flown to Mexico to keep his eye on Hurricane, what he found out was interesting, Hurricane goes to Mexico to check on a bar that Stevo owns. Chevy posed as a Mexican women and asked to take the famous Tomcats picture, “Hey Senior Hurricane, my seaster loves you, jess you will love her.. Gracias seinor, my Siester you will love I take picture of you.” Then later, Hurricane is found in a drugstore purchasing boxes and boxes of Viagara. Chevy reports that when Mrs Hurricane (Former Miss Warsaw), found out that Hurricane was buying the Viagara she was calling Trivago to get a flight out of Mexico. Chevy had to leave as he had to play on Tuesday. Investigative journalism!
IN OTHER INVESTIGATIVE JOURNALISM
A source close to Stevo has indicated that the Stevo Nacho Open is going to be expanding this year. Stevo organizes a golf tournament ( a two man scramble ) always played on the second Thursday in July. This year, it falls on July 11,2019. Some Tomcats have played in this tournament, La Bamba, Sea Lion and The Big Easy, “It is a lot of fun, having more Tomcats in the prestigious Stevo Nacho Open, which as been running for 10 years now, would be fun for everyone”. The entry fee is $10. You then pay for your golf. There is usually a meal after at a private home or at Johnny Shotz. If you think you want to play, I am hearing there are 5 spots opening up.
INJURIES
The Big Easy had to leave the game early due to a lower body injury, status for the tournament is unknown, but Tomcat Management indicated he is day to day.
Fan favourite Sheep Dog is close to returning from his injury. It is unknown when he will make the return. Medical staff is thinking this week as the tournament is 10 days away. Fans and Media have been making inquires as to when he will return.
SPARKY NEEDS A FEW GOOD MEN
Sparky needs a few good men next week to move empties out of the Tomcat room, 6:15 would be a good time to show up to help Sparky.
DRESS FOR THE 30TH YEAR GALA
Coach Sea Lion is strongly suggesting that all Tomcats dress up for the Gala, “I think…. and Don Cherry would agree with me, each Tomcat should wear a suit,” stated Sea lion. “I know I will be getting dressed up, Serta likes to get dolled up for times like these,” stated Soupy.
“30 years is quite significant. Dressing up makes sense,” stated Cribzie.
WHAT HAPPENED TO ROOKIE GOALIE
T.T. was suppose to play last night, he was brought up from the Chattanooga Cool Cats, sat last night on the bench as a back up for the Bad Axe Bearcats and was placed on a bus to come up to the big club, but then realized he had a family commitment and could not make it. Tomcats hoping to have him in the line up next week.
BULLWINKLE BROUGHT 24 BEER, ‘JUST BECAUSE’.
Bullwinkle brought a two-four of beer, ‘just because’.. He is not suppose to bring beer, but being a good guy, brought a case for the boys. PUT HER THERE BULLWINKLE !
SOUPY
Thanks once again to Soupy for taking the yellow mini tournament shirts home to wash. Makes a big difference when the work is spread out amongst all the men. Great job Soupy.
While you are checking out the Viagara photo and thinking to yourself, ‘hey does Hurricane have a chubby and is hiding it with a thumbs up with the left hand’, do you think I could put my Harry Ballsonue.

TOMCATS FOREVER !
February Already, Holy Cow By Harry Ballsonue
“We are just a rain drop on a windshield”
Jerry Seinfeld
Tomcats had a record amount of guys out on a Tuesday night, 26 players last night. The Green Hornets took the tourney in the end, some good team selecting by team Captain Tonto.
Thanks to all three captains, for stepping up and picking some magnificent teams, Tunzie, Tonto and Beep. Thanks boys.
If you get a chance, check out the last few pages of the most recent Windsor Drive Magazine. You will be pleasantly surprised. You can check it out on line as well.
Thanks to Matador for putting sticks away. It is always appreciated when guys pitch and help clean up. Great Tomcat Spirit.
Great to see Slim Jim out there tonight and Killer was a regular Wayne Gretzky out there.
Ticket Sales:
Don’t underestimate the importance of selling your Tomcat 30th year anniversary tickets. Tomcat committee will need to purchase, food and booze ahead of time and will need cash to do so.
Rocky will be putting up a slide show for the 30 year anniversary Gala, that in itself is worth the price of admission, here are three photos that you will see in that presentation.
Who is that 80’s cop at the bottom right?
Sparky in the Blue Tomcat Jersey, the Tomcats have posed with three different jerseys over the years.
Falcon in the Red Home Jersey, very popular in the 90’s.
Sunny presented a tee shirt to Stevo and to his brother Hollywood, ’Save Oshawa GM’, both Hollywood and Stevo grew up in Oshawa and their dad worked there for 44 and half years.

This is what it’s all about, sitting between periods and shooting the breeze and laughing. Look at the smiles on the faces as Sunny holds court!

Tomcats Forever!
It’s coming up on that time of year again – ‘The Stanley’s Cup’; and as per usual I will be making my prediction. I know, I know – I have a pretty bad record. I think I’ve correctly predicted only twice a team which would be in the finals; but I have yet to call it correctly with which team will actually hoist the famed cup. I also have predicted teams to finish last; and then they wind up winning the whole thing. When you think about it that’s pretty crappy. I mean just entering a team gives you a 25% chance of playing in the final (1 in 4); and when you throw in pizza and beer afterwards who wouldn’t want to enter – just to drink and eat?
This year is a bit weird as we will have some players who were unable to make the ‘big game’; and the tourny will also feature the next generation of newer goaltenders. Speaking of tenders, the Tomcats have had goalie fill ins throughout the season including Stevo (12th string) and Hollywood (4th string). The Sunny Sebrings will feature Hollywood in net and I think they will do quite well. I mean looking at the season Hollywood has played stellar in net; so it’s difficult to count out Sunny’s team considering it also has the dynamic scoring duo of Sunny and Soupy: along with El Choppo’s feared shot. BUT – El Choppo has missed many games this year and conditioning coaches are wondering if he has the stamina to make an impact deep into the tourny. Could that long a layoff heap too much pressure on Sunny and Soupy to carry the scoring load and force Hollywood to bail them out?That being said I did a triple take when I looked at the Snowpants Studebakers. REALLY – How did he draft Sparky, Chevy, Eagle and Lovie? All these players are true scoring threats; not to mention the endless tenacity and energy of Snowpants himself. And he capped it off with veteran Sheep Dog playing D and the Terror (A past cup winner) in net. Quite frankly I need not go further. I BOLDLY predict Snowpants sips from the cup and wins the whole thing.Who will be likely be in that final game? I think it’s harder to be definitive as the other three teams each have a solid cast of players and net minders. I’m going with the Rocky Ramblers and wouldn’t be too surprised to see the Tonto Thunderbirds as playing spoiler to my plans. The Thunderbirds have the Falcon in net – and that guys dripping in cup wins. The Ramblers have the Scuz in their net and this tourny may see the slow passing of the torch from Falcon to the newer breed of tenders like Scuz. On paper each team stacks well against the other; but I’m thinking Jingles isn’t yet 100% for the Birds and the team is heavily relying on veteran defense Bulldog and LaBamba. The Ramblers got Cribzie/Doc and the young core of Tweetybird/Squid to deal with. factor in Scuz in net (Whose played very well when called upon) and I say this….My final call: Rocky Ramblers and Snowpants Studebakers in the final; with Snowy prevailing.While your thinking ‘This guy hasn’t called it right yet’, I see your HANDZONMECAK.

January 29 at the Kapusta Kow
Teams:
The Doc Lippizzans : Doc, Beep, Tonto, Snowpants, Falcon, Sparky and Kramdon
The Killer Cleveland Bays: Killer, Sunny, Matador, Chevy, Stevo, Helios and Hollywood
The Kamikaze Appaloosa: Kamikaze, Soupy, Tunzie, Shack, The Terror, Jingles and Squid
Very, very good hockey last night, the Killer Cleveland Bays played three overtime games. Teams were even, but in the end, the Doc Lippizzans won the night.
Fantastic goaltending on all three fronts, Hollywood, Falcon and The Terror.
Great line…“When did we start playing overtime games?” asked Killer. Stevo replied, “sometime in mid-November we started, it was on the web site.” “We have a web site?” asked Killer. (compliments of Soupy)
ALSO, Thanks to the three Captains for stepping up and being Captain’s. Doc, Kamikaze and Killer, no complaints, no groans, they just did it without missing a beat.
Thanks to Snowpants for putting away the sticks and the clock. It does not go unnoticed and St. Felix is watching, he has a special place for you when you cross over to the big Ball Hockey Heaven.
Ticket sales
Rocky indicated in a telephone conversation, that ticket sales were going well and is encouraging everyone to keep up the great work in sales. “We are going to need money for food and to buy booze, so keep selling and handing the money in, it is quite important that you do,” Rocky stated.
Lots of alumni have bought tickets, still waiting on Mez, Finner and Bones to reply.
Next Week
If you know you can’t play next week, let Stevo know, he is in charge for one more week as Rocky is on the DL.
Super Bowl
With the NFL being fixed, I am predicting an interesting game. The Rams got in on a missed call, Hmmmmmm. Patriots are in, so that Brady can get his 6th ring. Should be an interesting game, don’t put any money down because you don’t know who is supposed to win, it is all in the hands of Vegas. Save your money and take your wife out for dinner. (Patriots win by 8)
Interesting information, as the Tomcats are more than just Hockey:
In 1923, Who Was?
- President of the largest steel company?
- President of the largest gas company?
- President of the New York stock Exchange?
- Greatest wheat speculator?
- President of the Bank of International Settlement?
- Great Bear of Wall Street?
These men were considered some of the world’s most successful of their days. Now, 80 years later do you know what ultimately became of them?
The Answers:
The president of the largest steel company. Charles Schwab, died a pauper.
The president of the largest gas company, Edward Hopson, went insane.
The president of the NYSE, Richard Whitney, wasreleased from prison to die at home.
The greatest wheat speculator, Arthur Cooger, died abroad, penniless.
The president of the Bank of International Settlement,shot himself.
The Great Bear of Wall Street, Cosabee Livermore, also committed suicide
However, in that same year, 1923, the PGA Champion and the winner of the most important golf tournament, the US Open, was Gene Sarazen. What became of him?
He played golf until he was 92, died in 1999 at the age of 95. He was financially secure at the time of his death.
The Moral:
Screw work. Play golf.
Question for you
So as you are reading the blog, thinking, interesting team names from last night, but what are they, horses? You are right, are you thinking, ‘horses have big cocks’? You are right again. Are you also thinking Should I play more golf? Right again, so… do you think I can put my Harry Ballsonue?

You use to watch them on Saturday mornings and now you can watch them at the tournament …yes …Rocky and Bullwinkle…
A mystery man came up on stage and it was a Tomcat legend, the Zoomer. Yes the Zoomer came in to pick up his tickets for the Tomcat Gala, being held on Saturday April 13. “So great to see some of the familiar faces”, stated Zoomer, a one time fan favourite, “Hurricane and Bulldog and May Day and the Rake and of course Stevo.” Stated a jubilant Zoomer.

Meet the Man who invented the ‘high 5’ (Compliments of the Turk)
An idea has come forward from the Gala Committee to have some door prizes at the 30th year anniversary celebration. Tomcats are asking anyone who can donate a door prize, that it would be greatly appreciated. What can it be? “You can put two bottles of wine together with a can of tuna and crackers”, Rocky said with a slight chuckle then added, “It does not matter, ask your wife and she will put something together.”
So far, Snowpants, May Day, Rocky, The Matador, The Rake, Stevo and Sunny have agreed to contribute a bottle of something or a bottle or two of wine. Thanks Boys!
