I League Practices

once again its time for practices...though some of us would like it if we had 13 straight games...but we're just relaying opinions we've heard in the crossbar...Lord knows this author needs the practice...

believe it or not, while the rest of us are practicing this Saturday, there is a lone battle taking place. The Shockers will battle the Borrachos at 7:45. Both teams are hoping to stay undefeated.

As for the rest of us, the practice schedule is as follows…

Saturday Feb. 3

9pm: Brewzers/Ice Holes
10pm: Puckers/Mayhem
10:15pm: Fugaweez/Snipers
11:15: Patriots/Stingers
11:30: Spiders/Stickmen

Sunday Feb 4th (yea we know…Superbowl Sunday…WHAT!?!) (Go Colts)
8:45pm: Komets/Blue Devils
10pm: Leftovers/Slackers

games kick back off on Feb 10th.

Love them practices. It's ice time we paid for. Wish some of the players, who don't think they need the practice, would show up. Who knows their actual ability may actually approach their own perception of their ability!

I am aware that this is a combination of I-league and Hockey, but we still need to be aware of pleonasm and the grammatical rules that apply, or in this case semantic pleonasm. Granted this is more a question of style and usage than grammar. Linguists usually call this “redundancy” to avoid confusion with syntactic pleonasm, a more important phenomenon for theoretical linguistics. It can take various forms, including:

"Who knows their actual ability may actually approach their own perception of their ability!" (As seen in the previous comment)

In this case “Their” was used 3 times and the root “actual” was used twice.

So remember when attempting to scoff at the mindset and hockey skills of others, let us make sure that we do so in a grammatically correct manner!

Concerning practices... I've never been on a team that saw the better players show up for practice. This season is different. We had nearly our whole team there! One guy was sick and one was out of the country.

This season promises to be a lot of fun; win or not, we have a fun team full of dedicated players.
