The Gauntlet

Greetings Mighty Rimmers,
Captain Boll Weevil here; officially responding to Captain Richardyoubastard's invitation to put a case of beer on the line for next Wednesday's 10:30pm game at the Factory.  We accept the wager and eagerly anticipate this next battle on the ice.  I suppose if we play as well as Team Factory did we can at least keep it close....but then again...those guys are all like B players really.  Anyway good luck!

Recap - Game 10 vs. Boll Weevils

Well sports fans we knew the Ringers had talent, and we knew they had phat styles (just check the chart).  We knew they could drink beer and wax philosophic about the duality of genius and madness as well as Canadian strip clubs.

But last Wednesday, as our boys gutted out a nail biting 2 – 1 win over the Pizza Weevils, we found out they had heart.  Who knew?

A first period goal from X gave the Ringers a lead but brought a wave of constructive criticism from team leader and moral compass, Hatty Todd.  In a post game interview, a clearly agitated Todd said

“Oh yeah, nice goal and all but afterwards he really disappointed the entire bench and Ringer Nation as a whole.  He just put his stick over his head.  That was it.  I mean, if you score a goal like that, you gotta ride the pony, boy!  RIDE IT!.”

The Ringers and Weevils traded goals in the second.  And while the Weevils threw everything they had at our heroes, well, they came up short as the Ringers stood tall and skated off with a 2-1 win.

Said a Pizza Weevil spokesperson “We hate those guys.  The worst part is a few of us have had to get second jobs to pay for the beer we buy them.  Oh yeah, speaking of, next week we’re having a bake sale to raise Ringer beer money.  Do you like carrot cake?  You should come by.”

Next on the Ringer agenda is a meeting with the Enforcers.  Watch this channel for updates and recaps.

Game 9: The Final Word

Let’s just net this out quickly shall we?

The Ringers are Ice-Gods and all who oppose them eventually feel the warm bath of their sick urine.

And so it was with the over achieving Team Factory. In a bizarre and nearly inexplicable happenstance, Team Factory kept it close for two periods. How in the hell did that happen? Who can tell? Sometimes truth is stranger than fiction.

But then, as usual, the Ringers woke up in the third and got goals from the Joey and 2 Guys line along with some inventive goaltending from the Wall from Faneuil Hall. The Ringers coasted to a 6 -4 victory. It was all rather anti-climactic and the Ringers were suitably bored by the entire experience.

Said a Team Factory representative “Oh now, listen, you gotta give us credit. We took those guys deep into the third period before we completely caved in, gave up, and accepted out inevitable fate as Ringers’ victims. I’m proud of our guys for standing tall and getting bitch slapped like men. By the way, are these purple socks great or what?”

Next up for our heroes is another death battle with the always tough and usually deficient Wee Bovils.
