Re: Bottom Feeders 2017-18
The Championship. RPI vs. Western Michigan. In the pre-game, the players had to endure another Rachael Ray and Sandra Lee concoction. Taco lasagna from Rachael and baked potato ice cream from Sandra Lee. Once again, the plumbing suffers.
At face off, the RPI coach, fresh off putting someone in a submission the other night, storms onto the ice and starts saying he needs Pepto Bismol. No. Not gonna get it. We spent all the money on Rach and Sandra. With the coach clutching his stomach, RPI passes the puck to Western, who immediately score from 150 feet out. RPI goalie must have gotten tanked last night. Not to be outdone, the Western goalie produces a fifth of Fireball and starts swigging it, allowing RPI to score later. Tied at 1, Western not wanting to go home with the trophy, scores after the RPI defender trips over his own skate lace. RPI would surrender another goal later, this time scoring on their own net. But Western was not without foibles in this. Western scored on their own goal too, after a good bounce. Just remember, if it messes your team up in this tournament, it's a good thing. Good lord, these teams suck. No wonder the commish spent more money on bad food than quality locations. Back to action. Down by one with a few minutes left in the second, Western trips up RPI on a breakaway. Nothing called. Western steals the puck and attempts a breakaway of their own, only to be broken up by another Western player. Commish is tired. These two teams owe her some Dragon's Milk after making her read about this garbage. In the third period, still down by one, and wanting to distance themselves from RPI, Western notices the RPI goalie rooting around for more Busch Light (did you think we were going to let them go to a craft brewery?), and gives the Broncos a 4-2 lead. The commish will have a Way-Too-Early BFB for 18-19 up after these results. The commish has enough money to take her assistants out for coffee-flavored coffee. RPI cuts it to within one at about 2 minutes left in the third, but Western answers RPI's desperation by pulling their own goalie. Goalie marches up the ice as a skater and scores. Ices the game.
Your winner and taking home the Rock Bottom cup: RPI.
