weeks" or "Beer-Nuts Scoring Streak reaches 3 Games"

We decided to make sure everybody remembers the Cammi Parade tomorrow.  Please arrive at 9:00 AM at Maple and Main streets.  We need your Duffer Hockey bags on the float.  Plan to stay for the post parade activities. Mike "Rich Storm" Presecky will participate in the "Fire Engine Pull".  Complete details can be found on page 2.

Now Back to Friday's    Exciting Game!

Beer-Nuts started the scoring with a nice set up by Tommy Z. 

Some weeks, headlines are hard to come by, but this week, we could have had any of the following: "Brinks scores 4 in 2 weeks"
"Tommy Z sets up 5 meaningful goals" 
"Sean Morgan Conks The Brain"
"Beak Conks Tommy Z's Beak" "Beak Ruins The Brain's shut out in Final Minute"
"Beak Scores Meaningless game winner with 45 seconds to Play"

On a real slow news day, we could have even gone with, "Beer-Nuts Shows up 3 straight

Berserk gets a closer look!

Brinks scored 2 and then Beer nuts scored again, all of them set up by Tommy Z.  (See picture in column 1)  The meaningful game was finished when Tommy set up Fruit Cake.  The Bobka factor put the Reds up by 25.  The White's had no chance to catch

Tom reminds Beak that he had 5 Meaningful Assists!

that score, so Beak told Beavis, Berserk, Johnny and the Morgans to stop passing to the meaningful players (Only Harvey and Beak remained after the King left for an early shower) and go for the Meaningless win. Sean Morgan started the downfall of the Brain when he fired a shot that conked him in the coconut and gave the Whites life. The score was now Reds 7, Whites 5. Bob Morgan, Johnny Z, Beavis and Berserk teamed up to knot the score in the closing minutes. Beak had a back spasm and was taking short, painfully slow shifts, just biding time until he could get a Brinks beer in the parking lot. Then it happened, he passed to Beavis who passed to Berserk who passed it back to Beak. “He Shoot, He Scores!” to win the meaningless game for The Ghost's Whites and ruin Brian “The Brain’s” Meaningful shutout.

Thanks to Muzzy for showing up and cheering us on.  Wendy is getting better on skates and is almost ready to referee.
