Good Thursday morning kids! Hope everyone is enjoying a great week of hockey. I know I am, and it just keeps getting better and better when you have leagues operating as franchise sales kiosks like they sell candles in a shopping mall! Get your sweet smelling candle home only to find that the damn thing wont stay lit!
Speaking of getting lit, the Brantford Steelfighters are finally done getting lit up on the score board every night! Thank the hockey gods that someone finally pulled the plug on this shit show!
We have been waiting to bury the worst logo in all of hockey history along with this team. It was only a matter of time before it happened. Some of the reports we had were amazing!
Seriously we got things like;
He was “put up in a motel with 3 other players” and “sharing a bed” with other players. Yep, this sure sets a new standard for what billeting is not supposed to be!
I mean seriously kids, where are the standards of operation here? Can any moron with a check book just buy a team and set up shop? Did anyone honestly think for one second a non sanctioned team located in the home town of Wayne Gretzky would ever be embraced by the community or have success? Oh yeah, and don’t let me forget that the Hockey Canada sanctioned Brantford 99ers in the GOJHL in the same town!
Steelfighters? Really? And some over exaggerated buck toothed beaver represented what? Who the hell approved even the name of this bad joke?
If you think I am being too hard on these guys you are probably one of the schmucks who was paying them. But hey, there is always next spring right boys?! Get those franchise sales kiosks up and running early.
