Mark got knocked down so many times that the referees were getting ready to call 9-1-1 and report some elderly abuse of a senior veteran. But before they could finish dialing… right after Mark was knocked on the third time he got right up and buried the only goal the game for the Devils Disciples and ruined Sean Roach’s bid for the league‘s first “official” shout out. Remember folks.., Revenge is a dish best served cold.
What Goes Around… You all heard “What does around… comes around”. It only took 1-week for a beating to come around on the Devils Disciples. Two weeks ago they beat up on Captains Mutiny 9-4 with a +5-goal thumping.
Last week it was their turn to take a +5-goal thumping from those “Italian” Goombah’s.
We’re not sure if the inspiration to win came from the Cannoli’s from “Mike’s Pastry’s”.., the Lasagna from “Giacomo's Boston North End”.., or the fact there was a bunch of little “Bambini’s” running around like an old Southie Neighborhood and cheering for their “Padre’s”.
Just remember “Goombah’s” to keep those little “figli maschi” away from the mean ole scary Abcunas house and their front yard on the other side of the street.
Up For Grabs I know what you’re thinking… But the Justice League beat The Devils Disciples 2-0 in the Week #1 opener. Well you are technically correct… except Sean Roach who was the goalie of record, does not get an “official” shut out because it’s not his team.
Thus.., the first “official” shut out is still up for grabs.
Start with 1 Hey “Pink Shirt Challenger” Gary Goodwin.., you need to return to work on Monday with at least “1” goal towards you 6-goal challenge. After this weekend you could be facing a situation where you’ll need a multiple goal game… and we all know what those odds are.
Double Games Don’t forget it’s a double shot weekend.., the first 1/3 of the season will be complete after this Sunday. This weekend is when teams can separate themselves from the pack.., make up grounds in the standings.., or continue sailing toward that 0-15 iceberg.
