Bar Attendance Tops 76%

Last week Rich Storm devised a scheme to increase bar attendance for this week.  He first planted the seed with "The Brain" by accusing him of hanging out with Fred after the games instead of drinking beer with everyone else.  This was enough to convince Brian he needed to show up for the after-party.  Rich Storm also spent Friday afternoon in sub zero weather, taking the tire off his car in an elaborate ruse to trick Tweedy into believing he had a flat tire and giving him a ride.  Since Dan could never say no to a friend in need, he agreed to chauffeur Mike to the game and to Wild Wings afterwards.  With 2 of the "go home early" regulars showing up at BWW,  we were able to get 16 of

the 21 players to continue the Friday Fun until 2 AM.  And with Boris vacationing in Florida, the staff at Wild Wings awarded us with some free Sam Adams glasses.
The Red Team managed to pull out both victories.  A 9-8 win over the Whites, and a 9-7 bar victory to add to their streak.  Some of the part-time BWW crew to also show up were The
Anvil and Stump.  Meanwhile, Klinger came off the IR to play both games.  The game was dominated by meaningful goals with Klinger scoring 4 out of 6 for the Red Team and Thor adding 3 of 5 points for the Whites.  A more serious note:  BBTW's Towel Misadventures continued.  This week Bill's towel shrunk to the size of a napkin while he was in the shower.  After BBTW cleaned all his stink off, he walked to the towel rack to see his towel had shrunk.  Realizing he needs a lot more absorption to dry that hairy back he exclaimed "Ohhh, Now what the F***!
Rich Storm
As far as the goals go I had one It was a beautiful tip on a shot by Tweedy, it was probably going in anyway.  "The Brain" was playing outstanding he then gave up 3 unanswered to the reds to tie the game at 6, I told Tweedy on the bench if I can score we may have to call suicide hotline. The next shift Tweedy caught my outlet pass and yelled It's time to start "mission suicide watch" Tweedy circled around the net and fired a shot that hit my stick (one less wrap of tape and I wouldn't have touched it.) The next two shifts, whenever Tweedy yelled that same thing I was surrounded by white jerseys which left V-man all alone for 2 easy tap in goals. Danny had 3  V-man 2 BBTW had 2 Grandpa Ken and I had 1 each.  Whites had Terry 1 Tommy 2 or 3 Rich Storm 1 I'm not sure who else but I thought the score was 9-8 Red.

Hope you feel better and your mom as well if you need anything let me know. See YA Fri,     Mini-Weezer

Stump Stands Alone! Beak missed his first game in 2 years, due to balance disorder.*  It was probably caused buy a reaction to a flu shot.  Stump now stands alone for a chance to win The "Tim "Basketball Jones"Smith Perfect Attendance Award"

 
Thanks to Rich Storm for the article and pictures.  Thanks to the Brain, Tweedy, Grandpa Ken and Mini Wheezer for goal reports.

*A balance disorder is a disturbance that causes an individual to feel unsteady, giddy, woozy, or have a sensation of movement, spinning, or floating.  (Makes you want to get one of those shots)

The BWW Manager was so happy that he didn't have to endure a Hacksaw training session, that he gave everyone free Sam Adams Glasses

 This just came in from Geno!

I know Koss scored one and Terry had two or three (more crashes however) and John had one.

Bill C and By the way each had one for the whites.

All  the best to your Mom.

My son Ken thought I should put on a helmet since I was dizzy, so I brought out my old autographed Stan Mikita model.
