A Very Daver Christmas... 2019

Figured We'd dust this old feature off and see what it looks like.

The assembled 'Davers met last Wednesday night for what seems to have become the annual Pre-Christmas Daver. The Cads and Suds faced off at the Quincy Shea rink where Black triumphed over Gold but lets be honest... the tale is in the Yankee swap... and so we bring you now... to the post game locker room...

If that doesn't say "Christmas Spirt" I dont.... uh... nevermind.

Anyway we had some fun, there was a flamingo beer slide something going on, or around...
Thanks to everyone who participated. Good to share the fun with you lads.

Happy Holidays and Happy New Year to one and all.

Here are a few more pics of the scene.

1st Annual Schlidaver Golf Tourney! Big thanks to Jared Gorden for organizing! Congrats to the winning team! Nice medals! A great day and a fun time had by all.

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.
