Party At The Moon Tower!
To cap off a great day of hockey, a hastily arranged party was held at the BTSH Moon Tower. Although the party was originally scheduled to take place at Eric “El Guapo” DiPierri’s parents’ apartment, as they were out of town for the weekend, the event had to be moved when they arrived home early. As a result, numerous BTSHers swarmed to the secluded location in the forest to enjoy good times and free beer. The highlight of the party was clearly league philanderer Brian “Grandmaster B” Barrett, who could be seen canoodling with many of the younger females in attendance. As he left the party, one lucky young lady received an invitation from him to see Aerosmith in a few weeks.
However, the party was not all fun and games, as a donnybrook broke out towards the end of the evening. To prove his manhood, Alex “Coop” Eben Meyer picked a fight with the toughest person in attendance, Heidi “The Maple Leaf Muscle” Karst. Although Coop surprised The Muscle with the first punch in hopes the fight would be broken up quickly, he was pummeled when no one came to his rescue.
The Dark Rainbows were not seen at the party, but they later claimed to have been “at a different moon tower”.

Tuesday, July 1st, 2008If You Were On LBS, You’d Be Smiling Too
LBS Goes Corporate
When you’re an elite conglomerate like LBS is, simply being called a “team” is not enough. LBS is far more than a loose a collection of hipsters who get together on Sundays like the rest of BTSH. Instead, their ranks include stock brokers, government officials, and other community leaders who you aspire to be. As such, the board of directors of LBS has declared that–effectively immediately–you must now refer to them as LBS, Inc. Ken “The Alpha Male” Poulin explains, “We’re more than just a team. We’re a brand…a brand that people widely recognize as the gold standard of BTSH. Kind of like Mr. Clean.” As a result of this change in marketing direction, captain Sascha Puritz shall now be known as the CEO, Karsten Pichon shall be the CFO, Molly Jacobs shall be the Vice President of West Coast Operations, and Sam Anthony shall be the Director of Investor Relations. Seth Wachtell has been reassigned to the mail room.

GAME OF THE WEEK
Filthy Gorgeous (4-2) vs. LBS (5-2)
Location: Corlears North, 5:00 PM
All-Time Series: Filthy Gorgeous leads 2-1
Game Notes: Filthy Gorgeous enters this weekend on a four-game winning streak, with their most impressive victory coming last Sunday. Despite giving up a game-tying goal to the Denim Demons with just thirty seconds left in regulation, Filthy Gorgeous persevered and prevailed in the shootout on goals from two of their stars: Suvin “The Guru” Malik and James Pereira. After a two-game losing streak, LBS has responded by winning their last two games, including a hard fought victory against the Mathematics, when they were short a few players in the heat. Despite playing only a few games together so far, Ken “The Alpha Male” Poulin and Karsten Pichon are still one of the most formidable scoring tandems in BTSH. While these two teams may not get as much press as some of the flashier teams in the league, they are still just as talented.
Keys to the Game:
1. This will be the second game of the day for Filthy Gorgeous, with the first being a very grueling matchup against the Rehabs. Will a two-hour break between games be enough to re-energize them?
2. Brian “Grandmaster B” Barrett of LBS had his first multi-goal game of the season last week. He claims it was because he gave up drinking beer the entire week. Filthy might want to buy him a cold one before the game.
3. Filthy Gorgeous might have a goalie controversy on their hands as Liza Watts was the winning goalie of the Women’s All-Star Game.
Eli’s Pick: LBS. I was very impressed with their performance last week.
Derek’s Pick: Filthy Gorgeous. I expect big things from Filthy’s most prominent player, Paul “Ashy Larry” Vernon.
