Little Fish, Big Pond

Tomorrow, the 2007 U.S. Pond Hockey Championships kick off at Lake Nokomis in Minneapolis. The event was moved from Lake Calhoun after the most recent bout of unstoppable global warming made the lake's ice unreliable. We must ACT NOW! before another winter event is forced to relocate. What about the children?

I will be playing in said tourney (although not until Saturday) along with a few other names from team rosters that you may recognize from their days as big men on campus:

-Jesse Bull

-Garrett Smaagaard

-Josh DeWolf

-Ryan Trebil

-Justin McHugh

-Bryan Bonin

-Peter Armbrust

-Matt Henderson

-Erik and Krissy Wendell (playing on the same team of course)

Then we have some teams that appear well-stocked.

First, playing on a team called "Johnny Upton & Associates":

-Nick Checco
-Mike Crowley
-Brian LaFleur
-David Paradise

Then, another team named "Tail Gators" loaded with:

-Brett Abrahamson
-Daniel Hendrickson
-Eric Pagel
-David Spehar

"Team Bullet" boasts:

-Dan Trebil
-Bob Dustin
-Charlie Wasley
-Greg Zwakman

And finally "Team Duluth" with:

-Dylan Mills
-Ryan Coole
-Stu Senden

Last but not least the political:

- Playing for the alleged "A lot better last year" team, 2002 candidate for Minnesota Secretary of State, Buck Humphrey

Game on.
