(vol. 33W, no. 6; newsletter by gucci)
editor's note: And now, for your reading enjoyment, we're pleased to bring you a special guest installment of the Pirate newsletter written by none other than Gucci! Again, please keep in mind that he always types in caps and this doesn't necessarily mean he's yelling.
THE PIRATES HAD A FULL ROSTER WITH SOME FINE SUBS NICK AND GOALIE FRIEND TOO. THE EVENING BEGAN WITH THE PIRATES FACING A TOUGH CHALLENGE GOING AGAINST THE UNDEFEATED TEAM ONE. THE EVENING STARTED OFF WITH A BANG WHEN THE LUMBERING GRINBERG OUR NEWEST DEFENSIVE SENSATION AT 6 FT 4 BROKE THE GLASS ON THE NEAR SIDE OF THE RINK BUT THAT WAS OK BECAUSE IT ALLOWED GUCCI TIME TO ENTER THE GAME WITHOUT MISSING A SHIFT. ALTHOUGH GUCCIS EXCUSE FOR RUNNING LATE WAS QUITE THE ORIGINAL EXCUSE (HIS EQUIPMENT WAS LOCKED IN HIS TRUNK WITH NO WAY OF GETTING IT OUT UNTIL HE REALIZED THAT THE FUSE WAS BLOWN ON THE TRUNK HATCH OF THE PURPLE PEOPLE EATER OF A CAR THAT HE USES DURING THIS EXPENSIVE TIME FOR GAS GUZZLING ESCALADES AND ONLY A VALET KEY THAT ONLY OPENS THE DOOR AND IGNITION HE WAS STUCK.)

BACK TO THE GAME FOR NOW. THE GAME STARTED OFF WITH A BATTLING BACK AND FORTH BETWEEN THE TEAMS UNTIL THE END OF THE FIRST PERIOD. AT THE BREAK OUR EVER SO AGGRESSIVE CAPTAIN TRIED TO TAKE THE HELM AND LEAD THE PIRATES TO VICTORY WITH A GREAT PEP TALK AND SOME GOOD STRONG ADVICE TOO BUT TO NO AVAIL WAS IT THE PIRATES NIGHT. IT ALL FELL APART AT THE SEAMS AND THE WIND WAS TAKEN RIGHT OUT OF OUR SAILS AS WE COULD NOT EVEN GET ANOTHER TALLY. WE TRULY LACKED THE SPEED AND AGRESSIVENESS NEEDED TO BEAT THE TEAM AT HAND.

ON ANOTHER NOTE WIN OR LOSE WE ARE A TEAM AND PLAYING TOGETHER AND LOSING TOGETHER WILL ALWAYS BE APART OF A ROUGH SEASON HOWEVER, WHEN ONE PIRATE NEEDS A HELPING HAND AS I DID THIS WEEK WHEN I COULDNT GET MY CAR RUNNING WITHOUT REPLACING ONE OF MY FUSES EACH AND EVERY PIRATE OFFERED A HAND. NUKEM WITH THE PLIERS GRINBERG WITH THE LIGHT MIKE WITH INSTRUCTIONS AND EVEN DAVE WITH THE USELESS FUSES ITS ALL ABOUT BEING A TEAM AND HELPING EACH OTHER OUT. SO THE QUESTION IS THIS HOW MANY PIRATES DOES IT TAKE TO CHANGE A FUSE? ALL OF EM .

IN CLOSING LETS OFFER A QUICK GET WELL TO EVAN MILLER AND LET HIM KNOW WE CARE.
