WEEK #2 SUMMARY……TAKE #2…..

THANKS TO AN ANNOYMOUS CUB REPORTER, we now have a report on TEAM CRONSTEIN…..under rainy conditons, they won their second game in two tries with a 15-2 thumping of TEAM LEADER…..two key hits (both bases clearing triples) were distributed by veterans DAN “COSTCO MAN” CRONSTEIN and GARY “JUST ASKIN” ASKIN….my question is…..were there oxygen masks waiting for both 50++++ year old players when they got to third base?????……MICHAEL “THE CARDS” SMALL, MICHAEL ASKIN and ADAM CRONSTEIN all played stellar defense, while pitcher STU WEINSTEIN held the opposition to four hits…….

ANY SUGGESTIONS FOR NICKNAMES OF PLAYERS IN THE LEAGUE……..PLEASE KEEP THEM AS CLEAN AS POSSIBLE…….

ALSO, ANY COMMENTS CAN BE SENT TO ME AT r.rosenthal@fuse.net as long as they’re NOT derogitory towards XAVIER UNIVERSITY, XAVIER UNIVERSITY or HOCKEY (in general)……

Sunday games were cancelled due to the wet stuff……..games to be rescheduled at a later date……..stay tuned……

Good luck in the coming games!!!!!!

WEEK # 2 SUMMARY……

First to report in again is TEAM GUTTMAN!!!!!!
TEAM GUTTMAN defeated TEAM GREFER, 19-6, in spite of missing captain BRANDON “IVY LEAGUER” GUTTMAN…..maybe they’re trying to tell him something, eh?……in a game shortened by the ten run rule, the winners put up nine runs in an inning twice!…..former MVP “RON “THE ROCKET” NASSIF had four hits, while rookies BRANDON “B LE B” LEBEAU, JOEL “POUNDER”ELLISON and JEFF ‘BRICK HAUS” NASH each had multiple extra base hit games……JASON “BIG HAUS” FAUST, rumored to be JEFF’S brother from another mother (what?!!!!!!) gave up six runs, three of them being unearned…….
APOLOGIES TO THOSE ROOKIES THAT THOUGHT ROOKIE NIGHT WAS LAST NIGHT….IT WAS REPORTED IT WOULD BE, BUT WAS NOT……STAY TUNED!!!!!
After the games, players gathered at the regular hangout to partake in their favorite foods and beverages and to watch the Reds/Giants game except for two players, MICHAEL ROTHSTEIN and yours truely, who were watching Game 7 of the NHL playoff series between Boston and Washington….

Thanks go out to my “proof reader”, JERRY KIRZNER! In my summary of the LEADER/WEISBROT game, I wrote that BARRY WAGNER pitched……as some of the “old-timers” may remember, BARRY played in the league many moons ago and is the “proud” father of current day player BRAD WAGNER…….comments can be sent to me at r.rosenthal@fuse.net……..
