Three Stars of He-Day
by Triple racH
THIRD STAR
Mega Touch
This sweetheart of a team mega touched the heart of BTSHers everywhere (including me) with their surprise win in the HiFi Division. They finished 8th overall in the league and earned themselves a week off this coming Sunday so that Julie can finally go apple picking. According to my sources, this has never happened before. They are so uncomfortable with skipping the play-in week that theyâve requested a scrimmage for this Sunday against competing league sweetheart Fuzz. The Mega Touch story is a true BTSH underdog, as they finished at such a high seed by simply playing better â they didnât make any ringer pickups in the offseason. Nice work, Mega Touch!
SECOND STAR
Joe P of the Anklebiters Production Crew
If youâve been checking the BTSH website, you know that BTSH Crabapalooza 2016 was a huge success. A big shout out to Joe P for getting and giving crabs to all of BTSH. JK, but really, heâs a boss for driving back all the crabs from MD to our very own throwback league bar Ace for everyone to enjoy. Also, for discovering and posting about Old Bay Cheese Balls, without which I might never have known about them. Events that bring BTSH together are what the league is all about, and for that we salute you. Really hope you can get the smell of crab out of your car by next seasonâŚ
FIRST STAR
Dave GDR of the Tompkins Square Riots
Dave âI have too many namesâ Gil de Rubio played the game of his life on Sunday. We interviewed a few fellow #goalienation members for their hot takes:
âIn 14 years of BTSH and many teams I have played for and against Dave GDR today had one of the BEST F*CKING GAMES in my time in this league. Today was a hockey version of Drago vs. Balboa Stone Cold Steve Austin vs. The Rockâ -$h0\/\/T1M3 (did I do it right?)
âIt was the most incredible performance Iâve seen by a goalie in 2 years of BTSHâŚDave is the only reason that game wasnât 11-0 todayâ – #letnewmanplay
Honorable Mentions:
All the women who took balls to the face this weekend, apparently there were a lotâŚin hockey guys!! Come on, get your mind out of the gutter. I heard specifically that âCheeky got blasted in the eye by Isaacâ, but I didnât want to write that because I respect all parties involved. But the important part is that she made it back for crabtime!
Mike T of the Sky Fighters for being Hattrick Swayze.
