Moved to PointStreak Site

Posted by Dean Beleyowski at Jan 6, 2009 4:27PM PST ( 0 Comments )

Hi there,

Many people were having issues with the Teampages site (too slow) so we have moved to the Pointstreak Locker Room site attached to the CanLan site.

http://team161793.pointstreak.net/home.php

Our site has moved to the Pointstreak Site that links to the scoring information etc at CanLan. Check your JunkMail for an eMail from PointStreak. If you havenèt received the eMail, let me know (DeanBeleyowski@msn.com) and I will resend.

Party invite for tomorrow night (Tuesday) below…sorry for last minute notice, but what did you expect, really? Thought soccer crew was on general email invite from last year, replicated this year, but, alas, you were not. Was fooled because some of the guys were on the general email list (my favourites), so figured everyone was. Regardless, enough rationalizing; after all, I am inviting you to my home to eat my food, drink my booze, and have sex with my fish. And, despite the tardy invite, I really do want you to come (yes, even you James). Besides, my fish is super horny. Here’s your official invite…

Sylvia, Mark, Aria and Jack would like to invite you to our first Christmas

Party in our (semi) new abode!

The details:

Traditional date (December 23rd)
Starting: doors open 5:30pm
Ending: that’s really up to you, isn’t it? (…but sometime on the 24th)
Where: 255 Waterloo St

What to bring: In the spirit of the season, we are asking everyone for
large screen televisions, or at least some type of product that you will not
have to pay for till 2010 (so it’s practically free!!). No not THAT spirit
of the season, the OTHER one: we will be collecting for Winnipeg Harvest,
so please bring a can of food or other non-perishable item.

Please RSVP (Richardson, Sylvia: Verify Participation) to
markandsylvia@shaw.ca or by calling 284-9519. Thanks and
hope to see you there!

p.s. if you happen to notice a lack of seating at the party, take it up with
Penthouse Furniture – yes, we were caught up in the Penthouse closure
debacle. Full story available upon request. But it’s worth noting the
Christmas party even played a part in our recent missive to Deloitte &
Touche, trustees for the Penthouse bankruptcy. An actual excerpt…

"We request that our property be returned immediately …. blah, blah, blah,
(empty threats), blah, blah, blah, (uncontrollable weeping), blah, blah,
blah… Anything you can do to have our furniture returned on or before
December 23rd would be greatly appreciated, as we have family and friends
coming over for a Christmas celebration at that time, and they would likely
appreciate the opportunity to sit down."

p.p.s. we’ve had a few queries regarding bringing kids… Bring ‘em! Or
don’t! Or bring ’em, take them home, come back. Or smuggle them in under
your coat, let them free at an opportune moment, and act all surprised in
front of everyone when you see them, i.e., "What the…I thought I locked
you in your bedroom with Mrs. Doubtfire on the dvd in repeat play mode."
Those are your choices. (Variances must be approved in writing by the
Sub-Committee for the Regulation of Minors in a Festive or Semi-Festive
Setting, Waterloo Division.) I hope this answer clears things up.

It was a dark and stormy night. Disco, Lefteye and I sat watching our good friends the Red Dogs play, sipping cold pre-game beers, and discussing Disco’s pending diaherrea attack.

Eventually we headed down, continuing to discuss why someone not feeling well would eat blue cheese. Suckers.

Made it to the dressing room. once Hammy showed up we were seven. Quite jovial though – James hoping to not get kicked in the head by Dangerous Dave again.

As we headed out to the field the merry sound of Mr. WhoFlungPoo rang out from the adjoining restroom as Dan sprayed the toilet with partially digested blue cheese.

Out to the field the merry bunch went – chatting up the Red Dogs – who incidentally owe us a 24.

Game starts. We are seven. No forwards ever come off but us D, we understand the meaning of changing fast to stay as fresh on the field as possible – especially when the other team has 17 players in the box and I think 9 on the field.

Suddenly Mildly Threatening Dave turns into Dangerous Dave. He runs into walls, does the splits in the air, and scores three or four goals.

James gets a break-away and falls over because he won’t wear outdoor shoes (I think he said they are for pansies).

Finally – we’re five minutes into the game, and Knapster shows up. We all cheer. 20 minutes later he comes out of the dressing room. Nobody knows what was going on in there.

In any case, Knapp has some clean water, looks nicely showered, and he heads on the field to play a superb offensive game (we were in a defensive shell).

The game ended with James on a breakaway and falling over again.

Beers were great after. Plenty of salt with some popcorn and some good clean fun.

Good job boys of winter!

Kelly – you gotta get your ass back in the game – I can’t write this all the time! Even if you don’t play (which you should) you should at least write a summary. It’ll probably be accurate!

’till next game…

Tank v Tank Girl

Posted by Dean Beleyowski at Nov 9, 2008 6:18PM PST ( 0 Comments )

Well it’s official. Tank’s social is compelete and I didn’t get to see Tank Girl. I did see Nuttso though! JB was there in fine form – dancing up a storm and not puking on anybody!

Mili was in fine form throwing pretzels at me for no apparent reason and Warren and Lesley were dancing up a storm too!

All the Way Ray showed up in his white rapper outfit and he and Randy and Norm had a dance-off with "The Party Guy"! I saw Cannon there but he never left the table. Sticks and Mrs. Sticks were there (still don’t know Mrs. Sticks). Glen was there and Charlene showed up later as Glen told her to drive out to Lorette in a blizzard on her own because he had a Colo Colo event to attend.

Hammy was presiding over the event in true Hammy style – he introduced Sue and I to the WalMart Greeter who ended up being the intrepid Hoops (which by the way, when hoops stood up he was framed by black balloons that made it look like he was wearing Mickey Mouse ears). Throughout the night Hammy was uncharacteristically jolly. Well done Sir Hambone! All we needed was a Hambone Slide and the night would have been perfect.

Everyone’s favourite dancing maniacs were there – the Otts. I think Norm and Kathy walked home after five hours of dirty dancing.

Finally I did see Tank there as well. Thanks for showing up Tank!

The whole night ended (they closed it down after Cris and Randy left with all the prizes) with a rousing chorus of "Ole".

Play for the Tie

Posted by Dean Beleyowski at Nov 9, 2008 9:12AM PST ( 0 Comments )

Well it was a dark and stormy night (they ran out of Club) but otherwise it was a very good game.

James was benched for scoring and Dave once again became mildly threatening.

Randy pulled two balls (might be his own) off the goal line and Disco made numerous saves.

Things were looking bad as we were leading the game, but we quickly took care of that by allowing our opponents to make some well placed markers – and playing for the tie.

Well done team!

James got two, Mildly Dangerous got one and good old Wheels made it on the scoresheet with one. Not bad considering their scorers were named things like Dragon and Sergio.

With Conrad (our Sergio) and Bob up front there (Bob never leaving the corner of the net because he was working a deal with the opposing goalie) and Hammy on solid D – I think we might go for a tie, or maybe a single point loss next game – just to ensure we end up in the division we signed up for!

Go Blacks!
