Ugh....
That was possibly the worst game the Ringers have ever played.
Well, maybe not.
Oh, sure, we could go on and on about how chippy the "whatever-their-sponsor-is-today,-those-whores" Weevils were, but with over a period's worth of penalties, we can only look to ourselves for what happened. But before we get deep into all the game, let's try to understand why the Weevils have changed sponsors each season. Is it because they're broke? Is their captain skimming a little off the top? Are they trying to ruin the reputation of each and every willing food service establishment in Raleigh? Or is it just a cry for help?
Well, whatever the cause, we figure it's costing a fortune in new sweaters/logos each season, so we're proposing that they stick with a single logo. This one from the Ottawa Gay Hockey club suits them, I think. Don't you?
What should have been a 10-1 game ended up as 3 to 2, with 32 minutes of penalties called on your very own Ringers. It's funny, and then, really, it's not, when you realize that four players were actually sitting in the box at one time. Good news: most of the 3rd period was played as 5 on 3, and still the Ringers held the line on the Weevils' few stars.
Bad news: Next week's game is against the league-leading Cunnilinguists, so it might be a good idea to keep full lines on the ice. Just a suggestion...
Anyhoo - here are the highlights:
Goal 1 was a great drive by #12, Smilin' Joe Eiden
Goal 2 was a one-timer from Joey to Bodie
Goal 3 was a great shot by Marc Lavergne in the fancy Nortel gear, from a pass by Joe Saundercook [correction from earlier version - sorry!].

Rich, goal 3 was actually a great shot by Marc L. on an assist by ME, Joe #2.
Normally I wouldn't mention it, but Il Deuce is stealing so many of my goals these days...
Sorry about that - will make all the necessary corrections. - Ed.
