The Duffer News was late this week because I hired Thor to roof my garage.  He did a fine job, but he nailed his cigs under the felt.

He then hired me to clean up the shingles.  He paid me at the illegal alien rate.

Too Many Meaningless Hat Tricks!

Romeoville, IL
September 7, 2012

Attendance: 22

Nice Opening Turn Out!
The Maestro started the scoring for the Reds when he came in from the point and took a pass from the Bookie and he buried it. Beak was open and almost took the pass away.  Beak gave The Bookie a chance to claim he was passing to an old guy, but The Bookie didn't bite and insisted that he made an accurate pass to The Maestro.  Bill BTW then scored 2 quick

Mike puts BBTW on the carpet for scoring a hat trick in the first period.

goals and added another after a Magoo goal before the first period was over.  He looked ashamed for making the score 5-0 and then stopped scoring. Greg Z had the first goal for the Whites. The Whites tried to make a game of it, but the Anvil was unbeatable.  Geno scored two and Brinks gave the Whites 3 meaningful goals.  Mr. Magoo added a pair to tie the contest at 3-3.  Cowboy Joe gave the Whites a 4-3 lead and it looked like they were going to take home the meaningful win.  When the Reds were up 8-3, Nick asked if he could score.  Beak said no!  The little Prick who had been on his best behavior up until then, whipped a back hander past Jimmy Bones.  V-man went on to catch Hat trick fever and scored a meaningless hat trick to extend the meaningless lead to unduffer like levels. It looked like the Whites had a 4-3 win in the bag when Tommy Z passed up a shot to set up Beak for a Buzzer beater to tie the Meaningful Game at 4-4.  That is the Duffer Way.
