At Least We Ain't Down Yet

Ok -men...let's go into the locker room with our heads held high, but make sure we hold our noses tight -men, cause it smells like something died in there; or maybe outside somewhere...remember, it  IS new jersey -right...ok, i'm really proud of you so far tonight -guys...for standing behind your goalie -although...that's how we lost that game so badly in dallas -cause all 5 of you guys were always

standing behind the goalie...there wasn't anyone else guarding in front of the net except lunnie...and he wasn't really on that night

to say the least...hell...i wound up driving on interstate 20, looking for that all night presbyterian church outside dallas

or was it episcopal

i can't remember

i blacked out everything from my youth

and appArently from the other night, too

cause when i saw the all night church  was closed, i just kept driving and driving and driving

then i turned onto i-10 and

then i wound up in phoenix arizona

the next night

right outside the building where the coyote's play

and they were just about ready to start playing

oh -i forget what team they were playing...some team that beat us earlier this season last year...pick one...and i went inside to get some advice fro the great one

but his wife said he was busy

and when i told her i'd been driving all night

she gave me a stack of money to put  a bet down in vegas for her

so i got back in the damn rental car

and drove up to vegas

and

believe me guys

i tried to get a bet down on blue

but they wouldn't take my bet

because there ain't no blue on a roulette wheel...shows you how much i know...

i heard one guy say red and another say black

so i said give 2 bucks on blue and the whole casino broke up

they even replayed it on the jumbotron

boy did i feel silly

so then i flew

back

oh -shit

i just realized that

i didn't return my rental car

it's still sitting in the short term parking

at  the one with the palms or the one with the sand

uhm...any of you guys have a deadbeat brother in law 

hanging around

who could fly out there and get my car back to the closest office...probably the airport...

well...let's not worry about that now

let's go back out on the ice

and give up no more than 2 goals

in the second

and hopefully score a couple

before this darn thing's over -eh?

hey gomie...ya think you could turn that music down a little?
