Teams Picked for Schlidaveur! Thursday Night!

Cadavers vs Schlitz

Thursday 12/20
10:20pm
Hingham/C

That's right boys and girls. The last Schlidaveur of 2007 is on tap for Thursday night. As you may have read in the CEO/BadMoFo's email, he and I have faced off "playground style" and straight up picked the teams for Thursday night.

This was how we set it up. He would be his own goalie and pick his squad, I would have Mike Gash as my goalie and I would pick the rest of the players for my squad.

Matt, haveing won the Schlitz mantle by coin toss picked first. Here I will recreate the first 10 picks just to give everyone an idea of how it went. Remember... I was already assigned to the Cads Squad by virtue of being the Captain, (nose) picker, DB whateveryouwanttocallme.
Here goes.
Schlitz 1- Dan Hebert (DWH) a good choice and the first time DWH has been first pick...
Cads 2 - Larry Bell.... you have to go with the reigning points champion....
Schlitz 3 - Mike Campbell ... Matt goes with big D....
Cads 4 - Stephan Wennik... Jeff goes with FAST D...
Schlitz 5 - Mike Daley ... Rookie of the Year Standout...good pick
Cads 6 - Greg James... something to offset Campbell
Schlitz 7 - George Moorachian...defenisve minded..
Cads 8 - Marc Valenti ... another D and Rookie fo the year candidate.
Schlitz 9- Nelson Sharfman... the cagey vet returns
Cads 10 - Kevin Parker ... another cagey vet coming off injury

I think I'll leave it at that... no one really wants to know if they were picked 13th or 16th... right?
So the final rosters look like this.

Schlitz
Matt in Goal
DWH, George, Campbell, and Pearlman.
Mike Daley, Nelson, Jasse, iJosh, Matvey, Deb and Ken

Cadavers
OEJ in Goal
Stephan, Valenti, James, and Jeff.
Larry, Parker, Elliott, Roman, Hammitt, Gregson, Scott, and Blake Underhill.

So let the smack talk begin. Pick a friend, and enemy, or whatever and give 'em a hard time. Let's get things stirred up right and proper for some good fun on Thursday night.
See you all then.
Anyone volunteering for Beerman....or Food/Munchie duty?
Send Managment an email.
That is all.

And another thing... A small Indiana company has applied for a license to market small, legal tasting samples of human flesh, which is reputedly similar in flavor, color and texture to pork.

Welcome to the Hockey Blog!

Team, friends, opponents, and random wanderers of the digital landscape... Welcome.

In these humble pages do I offer the game stories, mundane facts, stats, and proud tales of our Beer League Hockey teams the Cadavers and the Schlitz.

Can you say something is just a hobby if you do it once (or twice) a week for as long as you can remember? I don't know, but I love to play hockey. We've been playing with one incarnation of this team or another for ten years plus now. We play even if the games are late at night, or on a weeknight (they are usually both), and the kids haven't been sleeping great, and you have to be to work early tomorrow morning. We still go play. Its just what we do to play our game.

Our hobby... or what we do every week, sometimes(mostly) late at night in far away places. Then we like to have a cold beverage and talk about it in the parking lot afterward. Because that's a big part of it to... as you will see.

I got to thinking a while back that we should keep stats. You know, some way to give a story line to the season. So many of them had flown by, it was hard to remember all the things that had happened to the team or teams over the years.

Keeping track of the stats and email conversation threads that went on and on told our story in a new way. Which was cool.
Then I discovered blogger.

The Blog is a perfect forum, in my opinion, to tell our story, and the perfect companion "hobby" to my weekly sport hobby. Each week we get a game story and maybe some fun stories about the game. It works great now with the two teams because everyone wants to know how the other squad did.

So this is the story of our teams and our friends. I hope you find pleasure in the telling of our tales. A good game, a hard skate and usually a cold beer afterward. There are few greater things one can do with their time. At least that's what we think.

Please feel free to comment, whomever you are. The more the merrier I say as long as you are polite... or very funny. Visitors, friends, and opponents thoughts are always welcome. I invite you to share what you have to say. Everyone.

Thanks for reading.
Enjoy.
