Wednesday, July 22nd, 2015Emeritus Note: On Sunday, the Happy Little Elves beat Mega Touch for their first victory of the season. To help celebrate such a momentous event, we decided to remind everyone of the last time the Elves ended a long regular season losing streak. This post was originally published on April 28, 2009.
The Elves’ Fan Base Is Growing
Elves Win! Elves Win! (Seriously)
After several weeks of near misses, the Happy Little Elves finally notched their first regular season win since April 13, 2008, a drought that stretched for 378 days. An early goal by forward Chris O’Neill set the tone immediately, as the Elves cruised to a 3-0 victory over the Unicorns. Goalie Ronald Bettenhauser turned aside every shot he faced, earning the first shutout in Elves history.
With this victory, the Elves continue their relative mastery against teams that have yellow as a uniform color base. They are now 2-1 overall against the Tuques and Unicorns, but 0-17-1-1 against all other teams. As captain Ben Chadwick looks to continue this run of success, he has begun to analyze what went right against the Unicorns. Ironically, he was shocked to discover that the absence of Ben Chadwick might have been the primary cause of their stellar play. As Chadwick is known for keeping a trim roster, it is unclear whether he will leave Chadwick in the lineup for this Sunday’s game.
Despite this win, the Elves did not gain possession of the prestigious (yet imaginary) Fairy Tale Cup in 2009.
BTSH Hammers Demons For Bounties
Wednesday, March 28th, 2012Did This Man Bring Down The Demons?
By Editor Emeritus Derek “Lazer” Tagliarino
In response to the findings of an intense, multi-year investigation of an alleged “bounty program,” disciplinary committee manager Georgine “Mulva” Paulin has levied one of the harshest punishments in the history of BTSH on captain Adam “Legend Killer” Rubens and the Denim Demons. Effective immediately, Rubens has been suspended for one year from all league-related activities. In addition, Paulin has suspended former Demons defensive coordinator Abby “Tayne” Meisterman (now with the Dark Rainbows) for her involvement in the “crush for cash” scandal. As a team, the Demons have been fined $500 and will have its roster frozen until next offseason. Team veteran Dave Shyu has taken over as interim captain.
