The Blue Devils are your back-to-back keg winners tonight in a 2-1 thriller over the Ice Holes. Ray "Dancing Hip-Hop-apotamus" Workman gets the winner on a shootout goal.
Way to go, Raymond. Way to go, BDs.

yeah check it out workman!
look at this! Scandal!
sour grapes, anon.
ringers ringers.......
what is the scandal in that?
The question is why is a person who is competitive in C and D league playing in I? Perhaps he can only play on Saturday.
The BD's are ready to move up. With two keg wins they need to move on like the Army of the 12 Monkies did. Thay are a hard working bunch who have a lot of pride and would probably be embarrassed to go for a third keg. They beat us pretty good in our game this season.
competitive in C league? hardly. just because you play a few games in a high league doesn't mean you belong there...
here are a few other players that play in higher leagues, but no one seems to care (sorry guys, not trying to throw you under the bus)

these guys are all decent players, including workman. instead of complaining about ringers try to figure out what they are doing and either figure a way to stop them or try to do what they are doing. don't be afraid to ask them how or why they did something.
just remember, there is always going to be someone out there that you will never be able to stop.
now, can we please get back the anonymous trash talking? that is way more fun than this.
Sirkis
The Cheifs Beat the Blue devils !! HAHAHA
As much as I hate to agree with sirkis, he is correct.
A. There will always be someone who is the champion of the league and someone will hate. Part of the game.
B. Blue Devils won their games on average 3-1 score. That's hardly domination.
http://www.pointstreak.com/framed/players/players-team-schedule.html?teamid=134122&seasonid=3020
For the most part they didn't score that many, but just played very well defensively. Also they spread the scoring out among our entire team. Which was actually pretty amazing.
So like sirkis said, look at how we were doing it, not who did it.
And yes, I suck. Whatever.
Hey Bobby...
What girl is your dad gonna attack this session?

Take a number !! The line is getting long !!! From what I hear Dave B. Has my back!! Love #86
Ellis, hurry up and print Saturdays recap!

Thanks Mel.

Well, I disagree. If you have 19 points in 24 games playing in a C-League in 2008, and 38 points in 21 D-League games in 2008, you have exactly ZERO business playing I-League hockey. You may be (and probably are) a really nice, great guy, but I don't think that changes things. Forget what us losers who have played I-League forever and still suck think...this is simply a hostile environment for brand-new players. I-League is short for Instructional League, and that focus has been lost in favor of tougher competition.
The Chiefs want to give a thanks out to "Anonymous" who gave us the suggestion earlier this season of "making some goals instead of whining to the refs." We took what you said to heart and ended up ranked 5th (if you count our first game against the puckers which never made it into Pointstreak)...
-27
You go Randy! Its like a varsity football player playing against a bunch of 7th graders. Sure you are going to look great but whats the point!
38 points in D league! Why would they want to play in I?
When they beat us they were skating circles around us.
Someone help me understand!! Get this blog rolling.
Don't get me wrong, Anon...I wish to hell I wasn't the 7th-grader in this scenario, but until I get off my ass and lose 50 pounds, that's just how it's probably going to be. As I said, for me it's a lot less about whether or not *I* lose and more about new people having no real "ground floor" to come in on. I can imagine a number of reasons why the Moose simply stopped showing up for games (you guys probably know them and know the real reason, I dunno)...being brand new and getting completely destroyed by people who pretty obviously aren't still learning to play hockey is one possible explanation.
Randy...
i think the moose had roster issues, not so much 'omg someone on the other team is better than our ringers' attitude.
now i am confused....
no compaints here
http://www.pointstreak.com/players/players-boxscore.html?gameid=762059
but complaints here??
http://www.pointstreak.com/players/players-boxscore.html?gameid=827174
Yeah, you're confused, since the whole discussion started with Anon:
"The question is why is a person who is competitive in C and D league playing in I? Perhaps he can only play on Saturday.
The BD's are ready to move up. With two keg wins they need to move on like the Army of the 12 Monkies did."
Did I complain the last time we lost? No. Nice try.
Randy...
Ah, I see your point now...Jason Neal's on the Silverwings. Honestly, I hadn't noticed that when I followed the link to the other leagues' stats for him, so I hadn't made the connection.
Nah, if I had a problem with anybody in that game, it certainly wasn't him, so my posting this week isn't because I'm sore at getting beat. We played bad and it showed. That doesn't change any point I already made.
Randy...
ok....i still don't see who you are trying to call out then. if it isn't workman, who the original post was about, or neal.....who?
Yockey, I guess, for not seeing to it that ringers are less of an issue in general. Would you at least acknowledge that a)I didn't dig up Neal's stats and post them, and that b)when I used them as an example, I didn't call him out by name? It's an example. Again, the point stands. Any player, on any team, including mine, who is playing significantly above the I-League level should move up. Is that clearer and a little more resistant to charges of sour grapes?
Randy...
Anon and Randy. Catching up here. No one is calling out Workman or Neal. If you go to Anon's original point...If a player is good enough to play in a C or D level why would they want to play in I? Other than the day(Saturday) there is no reason and they actually have a greater risk of injury with skaters like me around. I would think they would be bored.
You ringers...what say you?
i really don't think this league has any 'ringers'. check the stats, no one really had 2+ points per game....that played consistantly
Its been said that if you have the financial where-with-all to buy a book and the education where you can actually read a book (sorry, Stone Cold) then you are "better off" than 95% of the rest of the world.
Now, add the ability to play hockey (at some level)and you probably just shot up to the top 1%
So, that being said, some players/teams will be better than you/yours and some team/players will be worse than you/yours.
Take it all with a grain of salt. The sun will come up the next day. Just (try to) enjoy your time on the ice and let everything else fall where it may. Some people/teams are hell-bent on winning, some arent. Just enjoy it for what it is.

No not you dave.

"I used 61 for TP" must be referring to Ellis as "hawt" because clearly "I used..." is a faggot.
are the patriots still stunned by the keg loss to the mayhem?
"I used..." is a faggot.
O... so close... but NO!

Workman cannot move up a league until he learns how to fight! Has everyone completely forgotten how he got the name, "Ray the Turtle Workman?" Allow me to refresh!
http://eulesshockeystop.blogspot.com/2007/09/summary-week-8-i-league.html
The video is half way down the page. Any man that gets owned like this needs to be in I-league. Besides did anyone see the shoot-out? Ray took the puck to the net on a walker. I league where C & D league players come to retire. I would rather have quality players here than skating against a bunch of fat ass retards. Just think how lame our games would be, and the moment they are all gone, we will be down to 3 or 4 teams and our league will suck like Duncanville and you will all be bitching about the lack of new players.
So shut the hell up.
Historical fact: The Komets kicked the Blue Devil's ass in the championship game just a few seasons ago and guess which "C" League player was playing defense? Yepper " Ray the Turtle Workman!!!
Oh I have something new for you guys to bitch about. What about goalies that is to good? I mean if you never get to score how are you ever going to build confidence. I never here people bitching about that...instead they are always trying to get the better goalie. I mean if you want to get rid of ringers...go get some newbie goalies that you can actually score on. That way after the game when you are standing in the shower looking down...life doesn’t seem that bad; its small and the last time you seen it was when you pulled your belly up to play peak-a-boo, but hell you scored tonight against a sorry goalie in a game without any skilled players.
So keep on bitching and one of these days you might get what you want, but two games into your ringer free season, will you want what you got?
Because everyone that makes the league fun will be gone and you will still suck. And you will not have anybody to play against, and will not be good enough to get into the next level.
So grow a pair, show up to drop in and open skates, pay the price and you will get some of the glory.
Otherwise get you a gaming system and some cheat codes that way you can be a ringer too!
Maybe the Privaqueers should stop whining about ringers in Useless and sail their happy asses back to Duncanville. I hear the competition is pretty crappy there...
So are the Blue Devils going to move to D or stay in I? After two keg wins its time to move on.
We're staying in I. Strike while the iron's hot, ya know... no sense in challenging ourselves. It's much more fun to just beat everyone.
Ugh, seriously, you can complain less, because the league is splitting into two divisions again, so all of the teams who can't handle the heat can stay in the lower division. Then when you still lose games, you'll realize it was less about us being so good and more about us just being better than you, which doesn't take much.
-Val (definitely NOT a ringer)
Ah, jeez, you totally owned me while simultaneously missing my point entirely. How ashamed I must feel at this moment to have a couple of anonymous asshats prove to me that they can't read.
Two final, related points:
1) Where's the Instructional League, where people who are new to the game actually LEARN hockey? The leagues are broken up precisely so that the best hockey isn't played at the lowest level. To complain that I-League's level of competition would be too low if the emphasis were on instruction is like complaining that you don't see Peyton Manning-like performances at the Eastfield Middle School - Smalltown Jr. High game. There are higher leagues for those of you sick of playing with newbies...that's kind of the point. But you'd rather win in a league where you only have to deal with three D-Leaguers per opposing team instead of whole teams of 'em. I can see why you're thumping your chest so loudly.
2) As proud as you are of all the "talent" in this I-League, why aren't you anxious to prove you're better in the D-League? Seriously, it makes no sense. You say you don't want to skate against the old, fat, new, whatever...and yet you're afraid to just take your Hart Trophy winning ass to the D-League where, presumably, you wouldn't have to suffer the buzzkill of sharing the ice with them? You act like I-League's your only choice (which it is, unless you just want to be an average player in a higher league instead of King of Nowheresville).
As for comparing privates or growing a pair, I'll consider your advice as soon as you take two seconds to make a free e-mail account and stop posting anonymously like a pussy. Afraid we'll find out that you're a point a season guy like me and not a goal-scoring machine?
And nice try with the Privaqueers (actually pretty funny) comment. But since the Privateers didn't start this round of ringer talk, it hardly flies.
Randy...
Val, you don't have too much to brag about...if they chiefs can beat you guys anyone can!
Hay the chiefs beat the blue devils
Everyone knows the cheifs used ringers to beat the puckers.
if anon = "gay" then
. write Why does David Blubaugh raise gerbils?
endif
Exactly my point. If the Chiefs can beat us, so can most other teams. Maybe our strength is in numbers, I mean we do have like 30 people on the bench at any moment. :)
-Val
komets only beat the blue devils because they had gallagher, hodges and adkins. more ringers who don't play here any more.
i could beat the blue devils by myself
No, The puckers beat themselfs!
I guess the BD's ringer needs more instruction after playing freaking college hockey, how lame!!!!!
Ice holes were screwed!
http://www.schl.org/players_ap.cfm?PlayerID=1735
that roller hockey you noob
not only is it roller hockey, it is roller hockey at UTA. obviously a power house hockey school
Ok after seeing that post on that Hawley kid, why was he allowed to play in the 2 playoff games when he only played in 2 or 8 games this season???? Does this leage have any rules?
Noob huh,
roller or not have you seen the kid play? He is a high C player playing in I league, hope he and the BD's feel good about that. Yeah with like 4 lines you need a kid like that.
Rules? Yes, leave all your equipment on after checking Val into the boards.
most of the 'high c' players have all played jr hockey or college hockey. don't think a uta roller hockey kid would fit in...
Realy? Jr or College huh, name these players for me, cause that isn't true at all.
thinking of renaming my Privates to Blue Devil, so when I beat by myself...
take each of the silverwings players who are a point a game or better (except Reid, that leaves Neal, Castillo, Howard, and Brookamn), IOW anybody on the team with more than 3 pts., and add up their 2008 stats in D league or higher:
GP 184
G 72
A 81
P 153
PPGA 0.8
Not top shelf D leaguers, but obviously a team that gets all their scoring from current D leaguers.
weak
"Realy? Jr or College huh, name these players for me, cause that isn't true at all."
Joe Otsuka (Jr A), James Morlock (college), Chris Luz (college), David Heeps (Jr A)
you can say you are sorry at any time....
Great, Now they will have Big heads!
Thanks,
Noobie
The chiefs used ringers when they beat the chiefs?? Which time? The first or the second time?? Also, who are these suspected ringers???
-27
Correction: "When they beat the puckers...."
-27
#27 was one. he used an interesting technique, the fish flop when on the ice...
The cheifs suck less than the puckers!
Than we need to have a draft? That way you can "STOP YOUR BITCHING"
Ooh, PICK ME, PICK ME!!! :-)
Randy...
YOU CAN PLAY FOR GINGER!
a draft would be a good idea, except you have teams that have custom jerseys and people that want to stay together.
"Not top shelf D leaguers, but obviously a team that gets all their scoring from current D leaguers.
weak" (about the Wings)
yea, where did the SilverWings end up? 10th out of 16?? you're right anon, they should all be kicked out of the league, or else they might take LAST PLACE from you, and ruin your pride.. (you moron) why the hell would anyone bitch about a team who just barely ended up 5-4-1?? i'm sure the Ice Holes, Puckers, Privateers, and the Brewsers, (who pummeled us, ha!) don't give a shit who's on our roster, as they all beat us..
Jason Neal is very vocal on our bench, and i've seen Casey Jenkins play, and you know what? both of those cats do all they can to HELP and INSTRUCT the teams they are on to help them get better..
besides, if you have a roster of brand new players, where no one has played before and no coach, where the F do you get the instruction from?? that's right kiddos, people who have played before and somewhat know what they are doing..
geez, either calm down people, or go play softball.. (not you Randy, you tried to be nice, so mutual respect)
#56 BB Silverwings..
Than get a crowbar and get the fags apart!
WWWAAAAAAAHHHHHHH!!!!!!!!!!! We can't beat the chiefs! They have ringers!
Ginger
yet another problem with i league...if it is supposed to be instructional, why don't all teams have a coach? why do some teams turn them down?
sirkis, we're moving the wet willies down to I league for a game against the priva-queers. I think we can spot them 10 goals?
You down?
Hodges
nah, how about the sliverfags? or the stickgirls? or the blue taints? or the chief of queefs?
sirk
No coach and you save $300.00
ha! that'll work.
I haven't seen this much finger pointing since my nephew started picking his nose.
You people make politicians look amiable.
Seriously, I enjoy playing this game to much to point out insignificant stuff such as this. It's two sessions that the BD's won the keg. Does anyone remember the fugaweez? Didn't they win it back to back? No one called them a bunch of ringers.
My point is, that teams will come and go and rise and fall. Be happy with the fact that you can play hockey. I know people that can't even lace up a pair of skates correctly and are scared to try. Those of us that aren't scared should take pride in that and not complain about who is better than who and just play to have fun and show those that want to play what a great sport this is to get involved in.

You would the Head queef !!!!
yes i would
sirk
no caoch to save $300 per team.....for a team like the BD thats like $10 a player
Sirkis, Brookman, and myself should get raises.
What kind of panties do you have on to day?
"Does anyone remember the fugaweez? Didn't they win it back to back? No one called them a bunch of ringers."
I think the Patriots played in 5 or6 Keg games in a row before the BD's won the last 2. The only ringer they ever had was JEFF VAUGHN and that was only for a couple of seasons.
THE Jeff Vaughan
crotchless
Ok, time for everyone to get off this blog and use what the internet was intended for.
Go look at some porn.
You must be taller than the crossbar to play in I league Nate... Try again after puberty.
we, as a group, are not great at spelling.
-Brooks
and, as a group, aren't really that good at hockey!
Thats why we play hockey.
After reading these it looks like the central question still needs to be addressed. Why are these players who are competitive in C and D wasting their time in I? Why would the BD's stay around and challenge teams to take away their I league trophy? Woooooo. Tough! Step up. Didnt the Army of 12 monkies step up. and there was a team called Mayhem that moved on I have heard. COme on now.
This is getting to be the same old shit!
mayhem and atm are coming back to i league
Jimmy,
I think I overheard one of the Puckers say that wrestling is fake and Stone Cold Steve Austin wears dirty diapers - on his head! Oh, they also said that the OU waterboy could beat UT by himself. Sorry, the ringer talk is getting old, repetetive, redundant, cut 'n' pasted from last season.... If it really bothers you, try NYTEX where anyone that feels like playing on Saturday night is free to play.
Steve Austin has a bionic eye... DUH!
Yeah, but that show was fake too. So is the steroid-seething wrestler named Billy Bob Austin or is that Texas bar?
s in the a, don't wear a c, and j on the b
The chiefs and the #uckers play for the Keg!
Did an I-league coach just challenge an I-league team or teams against his C-league team?
Wow, what a douche.
sirkis ??
Oh Well. It was a great discussion!
Lets play Hockey!
New Anon!
Hodges sucks.
I am a Blue Devil's player. I have been playing for less than a year. My first league game was with the Blue Devils and I sucked. In the last three seasons since my first game, i have seen my level of play increase tremendously, and one of the reasons is because we have a few players that can acutally skate and make a pass or two. Ray Workman missed a bunch of our games this season, and nobody gives us credit for those wins. Ray Workman gave up a key goal in our loss to the Chiefs. Ray Workman plays defense for us, and is not one of our leading scorers. Our leading scorer is Chris Zoll, who is not anything but an I-league player. Just like any I-League team there are people on the BD's who don't know how to hockey stop, who can't skate backwards, and who don't know how to play position. Anybody who actually watched our games would not walk away thinking that we were D-League worthy. Most of our games were close. In fact, we won more than one game in overtime, and one of our regulation time wins came off of a fluke shot with only 2 sec. left on the board. The real strength of the BD's doesn't come from the skill of it's players, but rather from the depth of it's bench, and the skill of it's Coach. Nate has done an excellent job. I am a better player because of him and my teamates. Now if we can just keep Jim from cussing out the ref's....
ringers--every team has just enough to balance out the few players who struggle to keep up and it all evens out. It's a weekend beer league where everyone is suppossed to show up, play some hockey, have fun, grab a few beers and laughs, and not let all the good stuff turn into BS like high sticking to the back of the head, racking people with your stick, punching people in the back of the head or in the back, and other stupid immature crap. If it's that you're bored with hockey find another sport or move up a league. Fighting has always been part of hockey, but cheap dirty shots are total BS. As for ringers...ok...I can see some disbelief if an NHLer shows up for I League, but otherwise get over it and just have fun and enjoy getting more of a challenge to prepare you for the next level. You'll be playing the same people when you move up anyway--why not start now?
