\nPLAYING SHORTHANDED, PART I.
\nThe Mathematics, with only eight players in attendance, and Laura MacNeil playing with an ankle injury, held on to beat the Mighty Squirrels, 3-0. Andy Pratt scored the game winning goal early in the first half, and the game remained a one goal affair until the Mathematics added two insurance goals late in the second half. The only shutout of the day belonged to Mathematics goalie Joelle Sedlmeyer.<\/p>\n
\nPork Fried Rice, with only seven players in attendance, blitzed Cobra Kai, 9-1. Caley Boyd, in her first BTSH game, tallied two goals and two assists, while Brian Barrett contributed three goals and three assists, and captain Ant Ventolieri netted three goals and two assists. Derek Tagliarino scored the lone goal for Cobra Kai, so he has one goal more than the entire Mighty Squirrels team.<\/p>\n
\nAlex Eben Meyer\u00e2\u20ac\u2122s two goals lifted the Bad Touch to a 3-2 victory against the reformed Skyfighters.<\/p>\n
\nThe Corlears Hookers scored the only two goals of the second half, making the unveiling of their shiny, Montreal Canadiens style jerseys a success by a 3-2 score. Caroline Morrissey-Bickerton and Charles DeFranco each scored a goal for the Gouging Anklebiters.<\/p>\n
\nEd Lau scored three goals, including two in a fifteen-second span midway through the second half, to lead the Rehabs to a 7-1 victory against the Denim Demons. Anthony Romeo made sixteen saves in the winning effort.<\/p>\n
\nRyan Mills, in his first BTSH game, celebrated Showtime\u00e2\u20ac\u2122s birthday by scoring two goals to lead the Unicorns past Fresh Kills, 4-1.<\/p>\n
\nSuvin Malik and James Pereira scored goals, but it was not enough to take down the Dark Rainbows, who doubled up Filthy Gorgeous, 4-2.<\/p>\n
\nWhat The Puck celebrated their 2006 BTSH championship by scoring just twenty seconds into the game, and coasted to a 9-3 victory against Mexican Standoff.<\/p>\n
\nThe Tuques pulled off one of the bigger upsets of the day, squeezing by LBS, 4-3.<\/p>\n
\nThese people will now be known as the following:
\nPeter Prohaska of Gouging Anklebiters is now Geech.
\nEric DiPierri of Gouging Anklebiters is now El Guapo.
\nEllery Gillette of Denim Demons is now The Nature Boy (AKA Naitch).<\/p>\n
\n(This is where Kudos\/Gasface used to be)<\/p>\n
\n– Martin Olson of The Bad Touch. He ripped two orange balls from a child\u00e2\u20ac\u2122s hands, thus saving the league a clean two dollars.
\n– Sharif Corinaldi of Mathematics. He wore the shirt that half the league signed at the 2006 end of season party.
\n– Tim \u00e2\u20ac\u0153Scrappy\u00e2\u20ac\u009d Gray of Mighty Squirrels. Helmet? Check. Goalie Stick? Check. Pads? He laughs at goalies who use pads.
\n– The Rehabs\/Denim Demons Chug-Off at Welcome to the Johnson\u00e2\u20ac\u2122s. The Rehabs fielded two men and two women, while the Demons fielded two men, one woman, and one Adam \u00e2\u20ac\u0153Legend Killer\u00e2\u20ac\u009d Rubens. The Demons insisted on half-beers, but then proceeded to spill the beer on themselves. Who won is inconsequential, as everyone at the Johnson\u00e2\u20ac\u2122s who witnessed the event came away in better spirits.<\/p>\n
\n– Sharif Corinaldi of Mathematics. The aforementioned shirt likely has not seen the inside of a laundry machine in more than six months, if ever.
\n– Mexican Standoff has legal issues. Three players were issued tickets for violating open container laws while watching the LBS\/Tuques of Steel game at Moffo. At least they waited until after their game to get caught. [A BTSH Drinking Legal Defense fund is under consideration. ed.]\n
