Three Stars of Opening Day 2018

March 27th, 2018

Third Star
Opening Day Crew and New Commishes

Arriving to the courts as the Opening Team means that you could be in store for just about anything.  Special shout-out to the Denim Demons who cleaned up debris, shoveled snow with their sticks and had the brilliant idea to fill the fence holes with it. Those who played on the East Court definitely appreciated it (Karma did).

Man, that’s almost enough blow to get us through June.

New nets and cages!  Woo-hoo!  A huge round of applause to Sarah and the Brain, our new Commishes, and Shotgun Charlotte, local goofball, for procuring new nets and cages for the league.  We’ve been asking for them for years and you actually listened.  Thank you.

That being said, none of it would have been possible without the sweet hookup by the second best Stewart in all of BTSH. We owe you a beer.

Around the League – Week 1

March 26th, 2018

Around the League is a new post we’re trying out this season where we recap Sunday’s games with what we’ve heard. We may not capture everything, but we’ll give you what we know.

The Rehabs got revenge on Fresh Kills by allowing no league subs but somehow they used Hicks. This game was worth two points.

Olivier fit in like a glove with Cobra Kai and they handed the Demons their first Katz Division defeat.

The Gremlins and Poutine delivered an exciting game that almost went to a shootout, but with mere seconds left in OT the mighty Poos slipped one in. Mikey and AJ took extra gravy with their meals. Read the rest of this entry »

2018 Opening Day Narratives and Predictions

March 23rd, 2018

Rehabs at Fresh Kills
Narrative: Rematch of last year’s explosive PBR Cup Final.
Prediction: Rehabs unveil their new weapon (Hicks) and hand FK their first regulation loss since September 18, 2016, 4-3.

Awwww, come back to us Gabe and Ariel. We were only kidding.

Denim Demons at Cobra Kai
Narrative: Welcoming the Demons to the Katz Division are the wily Cobra Kai.  Brad is one of the league’s best two-way defenseman, but Liam lead that trend back in 2016.
Prediction: A nail biter that goes into OT with Zach 2.0 (Demons’ shiny new toy) showing his worth by getting his team the W, 3-2. Read the rest of this entry »
