Pure Genius

Gotta love the gusto, and inspiration, of the Stars' new billboards. They need lots more of this, leaguewide, to get some media traction.

Say it with me: Pure Genius.



Here's the story, Morning Glory.

BC

Summaries: Week 5

Here’s your damn summaries….bunch of freaks!

GOSH!

3 stars

1. Ray Workman – Blue Devils – 2 Assists, and oppressive defense (Blue devils 3-2 win)
2. Chris Zolle – Blue Devils – 1 goal, 1 assist (blue devils 3-2 win)
3. Chris Gallagher- Spiders – 2 goals (GWG) (brewzers 3-0 win)
Honorable Mention: Eric Johnson: Warriors- 2 goals (Warriors 2-3 loss)

Goalie of the Week: Philip Talley- Patriots: 17 saves on 17 shots – Patriots 1-0 win


Stone Cold “sack” award:
Three way tie: Brian Bradley, Robert Sirkis: Leftovers/ Larry Wade: Stickmen
Put that in your pipe and smoke it!


Spiders 3 Brewzers 0
Brewzers had no shot in this one, they should’ve just went home and cried. Chris Gallagher says, “I’m the man” while flashing the shocker as he gets two goals and Pete Clark gets the other one as the Spiders cruise 3-nil.

Patriots 1 Black Widows 0 (OT)
Another glorious textbook victory for the Patriots, in a very dramatic game. The spiders were loaded with several players from the D league Hitmen, however the Patriots D denied every attempt. It would be half way through the OT period that Jeff Eagle off a Butch Hutchinson assist would be the winning tally for the surging patriots. Tom “Terry” Yockey was once again defeated by the wind. He should really some lessons in coaching from Chris Skupien.

Stickmen 4 Leftovers 1
When we asked coach Sirkis how the game went, he responsed, “Stickmen: a lot, Leftovers: not even close.” As college football season nears, we’re now using Ohio State Stickmen, cause that’s what they are. Heck, we should just put college teams on all the names in the league. Hey, let’s go ahead and roll with that….. The UTA Leftovers had no hope though they had a goal from their ringer Jr “Caketown!” Lindamood off a Billy Quinn assist. From the Stickmen: Stef Trapp, Brad Bynom, Brian Listman, and Jeff Thomas all scored, while Henderson, Eyesermans, and Halford trio was silent.

Phantoms 3 Ice Holes 1
Yea, we put the phantoms, cause it’s pretty much that whole freakin team - minus the good players. (Kidding!) But Ryan Smith is a sack. Moving on to the game…A glorious battle ensued, and we gotta give the Komets props for stepping up. When the Komets lost Nate Hodges, they pretty much got an equal if not better replacement in Brian Brookman, so their ringer trio with Gallagher and Atkins is still complete. Ice Holes went up 1-nil when some dude named John scored. (lack of damn rosters!) Komets then rallied as Gallagher strikes as does Sean “Space Pope” Keirr, while in the third it was the great speed demon Scott Baldree who notched the third goal of the night. Komets = UT, while Ice Holes represent Notre Dame.

Blue Devils 3 Warriors 2
The New York Blue Devils pretty much hung on to win a VERY close game against the Boise St. Warriors. The great Jarrod Robinson scored on a Chris Zolle assist for the early lead for the evil empire. The game was then tied up as Eric Johnson strikes for the equalizer for the Warriors. After a scoreless 2nd period, the third was filled with juicy goodness as BD took the lead on a Scott Speelman goal, only to be nullified when Johnson struck again for the Warriors. Finally with less than four minutes left to go in the game it was Chris Zolle whose goal from Ray “Hobo” Workman and Brian Rivers would mean victory for the Diablo Azul.

Snipers 3 Puckers 2
The Texas Tech Snipers hung on for a win over the Oklahoma Puckers, as the puckers yet again come up short. Jesse Henderson made his presence known as he scores in the first for the 1-0 snipers lead. Bob Mustall would get his second point of the night on his goal late in the second for a snipers 2-0 lead. Puckers would respond on a goal from Rob Constantine with under 30 seconds left in the frame. Snipers then pretty much iced the game as Greg Martinez gets a tally midway through the third. Puckers would get a score from Kevin Luchenhoff late, but not enough.

I League Preview: week 5

The days of the Stanley keg is over…

A new trophy that winners of I league shall hoist over their sweat drenched heads after being victorious! BEHOLD...

The Sirkis Golden Calf!


Forged in the fires of Mayhem, polished in the blood of Patriots, and blessed by Islam, This pagan idol will be awarded and paraded around the ice until the Almighty strikes the losing team down.
The high priest, Hockey Messiah Josh Briscoe presents the graven image to the winning team after the game concludes, and during the regular season it is closely guarded under the watchful eye of Jeff Vaughan. his great Great Dane and 300 Spartans.


ON TO PREVIEWS!

6:30pm: Ice Holes vs Komets

Ice holes have pretty much been mopping up the league with oppressive slavery like defense, and solid to awesome offense. For the comets, this is their proving ground game. Lose and they’re still another remnant of the silver division with a decent record, a win, they prove their worth among the league’s elite.

6:30pm: Leftovers vs Stickmen

Stickmen can get back into the keg hunt with a win after suffering a humiliating loss to the black widows. The leftovers hope they get their awesome goalie back in John Ellis, but who knows. From coach Bobby Sirkis, “The Leftovers are for sale. Will negotiate - no offer is too small”. Junior Lindamood needs to step it up and play like he did in midget hockey, or he is regulated to another spare I leaguer.

7:45pm: Black Widows vs Patriots

Patriots had some problems finding the net last week, but still managed to get the shutout win. They face a team with many of the same players which were on the spiders. The result was a Patriots landslide. Catch is, this Black Widows team is slighty better with more team chemistry. Both teams keg hopes are on the line in this one.

7:45pm: Warriors vs Blue Devils

This battle of coaches pits Greg Sargent against Bobby Sirkis. Bragging rights are on the line as both coaches said they will easily sacrifice the lives of their players for the win, no matter what the cost. From warriors coach Sirkis, “Am I worried about Sargent's team? No. The guy needs to cut his hair and go to an STD rehab clinic.” Mark Cameron vs Travis Webb should be a fun matchup…as should Dan Grimes vs all Blue Devils.

9pm: Spiders vs Brewzers

Spiders’ season is in shambles, their coach Tom Yockey, downtrodden and defeated as spiders fans everywhere are comparing him to Ken Hitchcock and calling for his job. For Yockey, this is a career game that will make or break what coaching gigs lay ahead for him. We can only hope he brings his team to play in this one. He should sign Chris Skupien, that would solve his problems.

9pm: Puckers vs Snipers

Snipers came off a genocide loss to the Ice Holes last week, while the puckers are still looking for their first win of the season. For a group as talented as they are with Rintala and Luchenhoff, one wonders why they can’t win a game. Baffling.

Week 4: I league


3 Stars:

1. Alex Atkins: Komets: 3 Goals – komets 6-1 win
2. Dallas Lehr: Patriots: 2 Goals- Patriots 2-0 win
3. Todd Smith: Blue Devils – went a game without taking a penalty.

Goalie of the Week: Philip Talley- Patriots – 15 saves on 15 shots – shutout

So there were no score sheets really except for like two, so we pieced together information…

Brewzers 3 Puckers 2 (OT)

Brewzers survive a very physical battle where the puckers got chippy.

Ice Holes 5 Snipers 0
Ice Holes may be this season’s mayhem. We knew this team could play defense well, but scoring lacked…that theory was shot down. This was an absolute holocaust.

Komets 6 Leftovers 1
See this website HERE ... from coach bobby sirkis "Next time we lose a game, every single player on the roster, whether they played or not, will eat an entire lemon...peel and all" Los komets were inspired by Bobby Sirkis' teachings before the game, and are where they are at today because of him. They should make a golden calf unto him.

Black Widows 3 Stickmen 1
Black Widows bounce back from their loss last week and beat a scrappy stickmen squad. We heard there was hooliganism in this one as well.

Patriots 2 Warriors 0
Another glorious win for the Patriots. Dallas Lehr gets both markers against his old club, with his brother Travis landing an assist on one of the strikes. Warriors threatened late, however could not beat the rock solid defense of the patriots. From warriors coach about his silent high schooler, "I am waiting for him to get a goal, an assist...something. I'm worried, he is starting to look like hodges out there."

Blue Devils 4 Spiders 1
The spiders have all but imploded as the Evil Empire wins their second straight game. Scott Speelman, Mark Cameron, David Ogle, and Dan Glien score. From Ray “Painted Toenail” Workman, “We will be winning the rest of our games this season, we have a championship to win.” Ray, where did you get the pedicure from?
