Hockey Status: Improving?

So last night we lost again. But, we scored a goal! And we played a whole three periods. I know. Miracles happen. And this was against "The Vandals" who were supposedly in a higher division last year but switched down so they could win more games.

Okay, the final score was still 8 - 1, but hey, what can you do?

What I can do is get ticked off when the other team is winning 7 - 1 with like 5 minutes left in the game and still playing like they're 2 goals down in game seven of the Stanley Cup Finals.

Oh, and especially when some big overweight mongrel knocks me down in a "no hit league" and the ref tells me it was probably just an accident.

Then the ref was worried that I was going to start a fight. I told him, "Seriously? Did you see the size of that guy? And look at me. I'm not going to start a fight with him. You find me a guy who weighs about 110 pounds and I'll take that guy out." That was my attempt at levity and looking like less of a hot head.

Next week we play "Bomb Squad" who we will probably lose to. But in the first week they played to a 4 -4 tie with the Vandals, so maybe we'll make it to the end of the game again. Baby steps.
