Rec Hockey.....ugh...

[Rockford35]

I love it. Saturday night game, 8 guys (including the goalie) show up. Fack sakes!

11-3 loss. Man, our biggest ass handing of the season.

One highlight, I did score a goal by shooting a puck off the goalie's ass.

So i got that going for me, which is nice.

That's why I stopped going to drop-in/rec hockey when I tried to get back into it a couple of years ago.

I'm too chubs to handle myself for 5 minute shifts. Just doesn't work for a man in my general physical condition.

You're a man? What about those boobs?

Hey, I know where you're coming from Rock. I played rec hockey until the 2003-04 season, then I hung up the skates. At my age, it was taking a little longer to recover from them, especially when there were only 6 or 7 skaters.

I miss it though, and sometimes I get the feeling I'll dust off the equipment, but if I wait for a couple of minutes, the feeling passes. (whew)

I get the same feeling when I need to rake the lawn....

Wouldn't have expected anything less from you Rock.
I bet that must hurt though.

Sometimes I envy you guys that grew up where ice is found somewhere other than in iced tea. Hockey seems like the perfect winter sport to complement summer golf. I can barely go forwards on ice skates, and I fall a lot.

Down here in Georgia, outside ice hockey is out of the question, and here in Augusta, indoor ice skating rinks fared poorly until recently. Now we have several, and even a minor league hockey team, the Lynx. One of their Russian players was a clien of mine until he got traded. Free tickets!! Man, his wife was a looker, too.

On the other hand, I'll be playing golf all year long.

I know a guy who plays for the Lynx. Colt King. He lived with my family for a 10 months while he played JR B hockey here. Keep an eye on him, make sure he stays out of trouble!
