AN INVESTIGATION IS PENDING
Ok, you've no doubt heard about the infamous tackle at the end of the Semifinals game vs. the Phantoms. In case you were in a cave, here's what happened: Waning minutes of the game and the Pirates had just knotted it 4-4. Phantoms get a powerplay and Brian comes across the crease, tackles me and pins me down. Phantoms score GWG. Accident you say? The S.O.C. has found documentation that may prove otherwise. Apparently Gucci had run a box on the Semifinals and #67 had a final score of 6-5 Phantoms (see above)! Hmmmm.


LOST 6-5
