And it's on! The 2010-2011 F-er Hockey Season has officially started. No more looking back to the good, sweet, wholesome hockey times of the past. Last year is over and there's no going back. All you can do is cry a little and let go...no more blubbering in your coffee wishing you can live the past glories. As the Fonz says..."Sit on it Potsey!" So it is with another year. Another year to make amends or break new records, or to try and hope you can do better. You wish. Tell that to Tom Bosley bub.
As you know, I like hype. Hype is a good thing. It's a way of getting people JAZZED about something awesome, or about to happen. In this case here, our opening 2010 season. But don't get me wrong, I also don't like to beg...much. So, when it came to getting the word out about the up coming season, I tried to keep it simple and direct. Oh sure I may have mocked the comforts we had grown accustomed to – like, cycling, swimming, sun bathing, playing with the kids, or miscellaneous visits to Korean massage parlors, you know stuff like that. But, I always tried to stay positive about any future chances of conquest and glory. In the end, I feel the fruits of my loins proved substantial with our excellent turnout this morning indeed. Twelve players in all! With the usual grouping of Stars and Villains too boot. In particular, The Bullman staked out a
territory of NOTORIOUS early, even before he hit the ice. In no uncertain terms...beware fools, there is going to be some "Hard-Law" this season. As for the rest of the players – they were ready, willing, and jazzed to perfection! The City of Edina, Minnesota also rose to the occasion as well, with their usual excellent and timely quality of ice too. Yours truly...felt satisfied and validated...as usual.Of course what would be LOST if we had not played for something of value, hmmm? A measure of substance is the name of the game we play for. And since
I did not want to disappoint our first game of the season – at exactly 7:25am this morning I bought donuts. You know, the classic kind. The kind of donuts a man is used to. The regular kind of donuts that are not sucky. I hate sucky donuts and these weren't. Straight from the Holiday Pantry. There was an excellent variety of choices an F-er Hockey Player would love. Plain cake donuts, chocolate cake donuts, white sprinkled donuts, glazed donuts, chocolate raised donuts...So...to our first non-sucky game of season...Well done my friends...pleasant dreams...
