Derek\u2019s Pick:<\/strong> LBS, Inc.\u00a0 I’ll call the two defenses a wash in this game, but LBS, Inc.\u00a0has the advantage on offense.<\/p>\n<\/p>\n
Fresh Kills (4-5) vs. Cobra Kai (2-6-0-1)<\/strong>
\nGuest Columnist: John Meyer (Dark Rainbows)<\/em>
\nLocation:<\/strong> Tompkins East, 2:00 PM
\nAll-Time Series:<\/strong> Fresh Kills leads 5-0-1
\nGame Notes:<\/strong> Where does one go with a matchup of teams with a combined 2-7 record in the\u00a0Rubens Division (Kai 0-4 Killers 2-3)? Both teams share losses at the hands of division foes Demons, Habs, and yes, the upstart Elves, but they come into this game with different motivations. While K+Phos looks to jump start an offense that was stymied in week 10 by a league-best Demon defense, Enayet and the Kai will attempt to avenge the team’s week 2 shutout loss to the Killers.
\nJohn’s Pick:<\/strong> Fresh Kills. The 2008 champs get back to .500 as they send Cobra Kai to 0-3 in the 2pm slot.<\/p>\nMega Touch (1-7-1) vs. Tuques (1-8)<\/strong>
\nGuest Columnist: Rob “Mungo” Gorden (Mighty Squirrels)<\/em>
\nLocation:<\/strong> Tompkins West, 2:00 PM
\nAll-Time Series:<\/strong> Tuques lead 6-5
\nGame Notes:<\/strong> This game is a tough one to call. I usually base my assessment on the number of hot chicks per team. Unfortunately, these two teams are filled to the brim with hot chicks, so it\u2019s a wash. Not kidding, when we played Mega Touch last week, I almost asked the team to marry me. Yes, the team. Including Alex \u201cCoop\u201d Eben Meyer. That\u2019s a lot of hot chicks. And the Tuques? They have a lot of those \u201calternative ladies\u201d that I was always afraid to ask out in high school, so they give me flashbacks. But they do have Sherman \u201cThe Shermanator\u201d Chan; he\u2019s a bad ass, and the tall blond guy is cool too.
\nMungo’s Pick:<\/strong> Ok, I pick The Tuques to win by half a goal. But, my prediction is the Tuques and Mega Touch\u00a0 follow Captain Eric Devlin\u2019s lead after the game and have drinks like gentlemen\u2026with a bunch of hot chicks.<\/p>\nSky Fighters (5-4) vs. Rehabs (6-3)<\/strong>
\nGuest Columnist: Rich Glanzer (Happy Little Elves)<\/em>
\nLocation:<\/strong> Tompkins East, 3:00 PM
\nAll-Time Series:<\/strong> Sky Fighters lead 4-3
\nGame Notes:<\/strong> In what could turn out to be the game of the week, the Sky Fighters take on the Rehabs. The Sky Fighters have more talent, with Martin \u201cOcho Cinco\u201d Cejka and sniper Robert Kucera.\u00a0 However,\u00a0the Rehabs have a “never say die” attitude, as well as\u00a0two of the top females in the league in MDF and lesser known Mel Raoul. The Rehabs have stunk up Tompkins in the first half of their last two games, but the team that doesn’t quit mounted two furious comebacks, before time ran out against the Elves and WTP. The Sky Fighters, meanwhile, are maddeningly inconsistent. There probably isn’t a team that they can’t beat on their best day, but lose to on thier worst.
\nRich’s Pick:<\/strong> The pick here is underrated Rob Blandi puts in the game winner with 3:42 left in regulation for the black and red. Rehabs 3, Sky Fighters 2.<\/p>\nHappy Little Elves (4-5) vs. Gouging Anklebiters (3-5-1)<\/strong>
\nGuest Columnist: Dave Gil de Rubio (Fresh Kills)<\/em>
\nLocation:<\/strong> Tompkins West, 3:00 PM
\nAll-Time Series:<\/strong> Gouging Anklebiters lead 2-0
\nGame Notes:<\/strong> Although the Anklebiters rallied in OT to post their first win in the post-Eric “El Guapo” DiPierri era last week, the Happy Little Elves are proving to be BTSH’s biggest surprise as we approach the halfway point of the season. Living up to their 2009 marketing slogan, “It can only get better” (which is an understatement given the team’s sole win in ’08 and overall 17th place finish) and having experienced the wrath of the Elves first-hand, take this team (and Rich Glanzer) lightly at your own risk.
\nDave’s Pick:<\/strong> Happy Little Elves<\/p>\nWhat The Puck (9-0) vs. Unicorns (6-3)<\/strong>
\nGuest Columnist: Adam “Legend Killer” Rubens (Denim Demons)<\/em>
\nLocation:<\/strong> Tompkins East, 4:00 PM
\nAll-Time Series:<\/strong> What The Puck leads 7-6
\nGame Notes:<\/strong> Society, culture, religion and sometimes the stars and planets classify each individual game according to the true stature of what really matters: the numbers. Chris leads all Unicorns with 8 goals this season, which should prove strong as we are on the cusp between Gemini and Cancer aka the Cusp of Magic, which favors the Unicorns magical nature. However, Sunday June 21 marks the Summer Solstice, the longest day of the year, with the sun scheduled to set at 8:31. 8+3+1=12 which is exactly how many goals What The Puck\u2019s leading scorer, Adriano \u201cMuscles Marinara\u201d Bratta has on the season, giving them an insurmountable edge.
\nAdam’s Pick:<\/strong> The heavens dictate the winner will be What The Puck.<\/p>\nMighty Squirrels (4-5) vs. Corlears Hookers (6-2-0-1)<\/strong>
\nGuest Columnist: Meredith “Danberg” Ficarelli (Rehabs)<\/em>
\nLocation:<\/strong> Tompkins West, 4:00 PM
\nAll-Time Series:<\/strong> Corlears Hookers lead 2-0
\nGame Notes:<\/strong> My prediction stands that during this game, Hooker Jason Eitel will call for the ball when he is not open, and it will end up in the hands of Squirrel Scott Brower. In an attempt to distract the Squirrels, Jason proceeds to shatter a beer bottle on the South curb of TSP West while trying to open it without a bottle opener. Squirrel Brower, realizing his true potential as a fighter after his friendly tussle with Tuques goalie Matt Spedaleri\u00a0two weeks ago, will forget the ball altogether and wrastle the bottle from the scraped hands of Hooker Eitel. A battle to the death will ensue, while onlookers stand with mouths agape.
\nMeredith’s Pick:<\/strong> The game will be called a 0-0 tie with only 10 minutes gone in the first half, and Filthy Georgeous’ Monica Russo will hold the hands of both players while the EMTs take 35 minutes to arrive.<\/p>\nDark Rainbows (7-1-0-1) vs. Denim Demons (6-0-2-1)<\/strong>
\nGuest Columnist: Monica Russo (Filthy Gorgeous)<\/em>
\nLocation:<\/strong> Tompkins East, 5:30 PM
\nAll-Time Series:<\/strong> Dark Rainbows lead 7-1-1
\nGame Notes:<\/strong> An exciting match up this week: Dark Rainbows (boasting John Nielsen, one of the league’s highest scorers of the ’09 season) vs. the Denim Demons (boasting Aaron “Coach” Pagdon, with 4 shutouts so far this year). The Demons lead the league in defense, with only 10 goals against, but with Sean Reynolds playing back, and John “no, not that goalie, the other one, the bald one” Meyer in goal, beating the Rainbows will not come easy. Captain Adam Rubens will lead his team confidently on to the ice, though he harbors a secret wish that another Rainbow will marry (or give birth) on Sunday at approximately 6:07 pm, so they will be short benched. This team tends to travel (and live) in packs.
\nMonica’s Pick:<\/strong> Rainbows. Sean’s team weds (or spawns) when Sean says they can wed (or spawn).<\/p>\nMathematics (2-4-1-2) vs. Mexican Standoff (0-8-0-1)<\/strong>
\nGuest Columnist: Alex “Coop” Eben Meyer (Mega Touch)<\/em>
\nLocation:<\/strong> Tompkins West, 5:30 PM
\nAll-Time Series:<\/strong> Mathematics lead 5-0
\nGame Notes:<\/strong> In this epic battle of attractive teams, 2nd & 3rd place respectively (Mega Touch is still handsomely in the lead), team Meximelt looks for\u00a0its first victory of the season against the league’s SAT prep course. WHO WILL WIN!? WHO WILL LOSE!? Only sunday will tell…
\nAlex’s Pick:<\/strong> …or Coop will: Standoff pulls off a rousing upset. Final score, 35-34! Highest scoring game in league history. The media will have lots to write about, including their own defeat.<\/p>\nMedia Records:<\/strong>
