Hat Trick For Geno!

Who Ticked Off the Czar?

One thing that we can usually count on is that when the Duffer Czar is in town and healthy, he will be one of the last men standing helping his team to a Drinking Team win at Wild Wings!  Last week he just left without a word, after the last guy paid his ice bill.

Mike couldn't have been ticked at the game outcome since he was one of the reasons the Reds brought home a victory.  He was part of a solid defensive

The Czar looks pissed off!

quartet that included Bill BTW, Crash Nance and the Maestro.  Geno's line provided most of the scoring.  He set up Mini Wheezer and scored 3 himself.  Two of his goals were ESPN worthy.  His first goal was set up by a Mini Wheezer pass.  His second one came when Crash Nance fired a pass from the point to Beak who was ready to back door the Brain, but Geno flew in and deflected it past the Brain who was on his way to cover his back door and left the front door open.  His hat trick goal came when he fired a shot from the high slot that squarely rang up the post then rebounded right to his tape and he one timed a wrist shot past the surprised Brain.  The Reds got a break away goal from TZ and a blistering slap shot from the Bill "The Maestro" Conti.  The blast from the point ripped through the Brain's glove.  The Whites had plenty of scoring power, but only V-man and Cowboy Joe could score.  They got a third goal from someone who didn't claim it, so Kevin "Monkey" Rench will get it since he has been showing up at Wild Wings every week when Tweedy doesn't drag him home. Thor said they had too many Italians on their team.  He said the olive oil made him slide off of the bench.  Reds won two contest, 6-3 Meaningless and 3-1 Meaningful. The Anvil had plenty of fan support.


Thursday Lunch

The Rampage goalie, Brandi showed up for lunch and asked to be placed in the Duffer Goalie Pimp's data base.  We may have to find a new lunch site, because the Cub Hating new owner of Nicks fired Karen and closed the bar Saturday.  We will give the Neutral Zone in Westmont another try on Thursday at 1:00.

Mike got the nickname of Rich Storm when he just joined us fresh out of college he signed an e-mail Rich Strom and Beak typed Rich Storm in the next newsletter.  Mike laughed and made fun of the Typo and he got that name that lasted for years, but has died out, so T&A started a search for a new nickname for Mike.   T&A felt that the leader of the free wheeling Duffers needed a better moniker.  The e-mail search produced many suggestions, like Duffer King II, but there is only one Duffer King, so we went with the closest thing to a King and that was The Duffer Czar.
