8/6/2008: Pipes v John Muir

Pipes lead the Pigs to a much needed ‘dubbya’ last night by posting a shutout against the Prairie Dogs. “That was some good water Kid...thanks for the bottle” Pipes was overheard after stopping 40 shots on the night. What Pipes didn’t know was that he was drinking Hetch Hetchy water…that’s right…none of that East Bay MUD crap he was sippin on last week when 7 pucks found their way through his pads. The water he had last night was the secret ingredient we’ve been looking for down the stretch. Back to the game…without regulars Papi, Tmac, Dino, Lemon, etc the Pigs and a small compliment of geriatric Blazers were able to burry a couple goals and hold off the Dogs including a full two minutes of 5-3 hockey (thanks to Mac’s little tantrum). The return of Mo from a nasty case of bursitis saw him score the 1st goal early in the 1st period in what would ultimately be a 2-0 game. “I saw this really old fat guy streaking down the ice…I couldn’t tell if it was Mo, Dave, Dave, Evan, or Obus” recalled Mac as he set up the game winning tally. Tall Gary didn't have any "helpers" however he did have a good game. Thanks Gary!
