My men's league team played the deciding game of the Finals lasy night, and we won our first title in a few years. 5-3 win in a very physical and close game. I had two assists, and more Guinness than that in the post-game celebration. Anti-smoking laws made me put off my celebratory cigar until tonight...smoking a '70s Partagas Lonsdale to cap off the week. Here's a couple pics from the locker room after the game, disregard the semi-naked player in the background. :r

Thanks Scott and everyone. :)

Yup, as you get older you realize each one could be your last, and they just seem to mean more...especially when I was able to share it with a locker room full of great friends. :tu

When you get older it gets harder to get back up. Tom didn't want to get stuck after blocking one. :r

Didn't even notice the teams called the lasers. Beauty.

Blocked shot cost me a week in the hospital last year, Al....as soon as they start paying my bills, I will get in front of those slapshots regularly. Ever see a flamingo? ;) :r
