November 12, 1999 Reporters Cammi Granato *** Rich Storm Volume V Issue 36
 
Brinks Bags 3
 
 I am waiting for Duffer reporters to send in their account.  All I know is Brinks Granato scored 3 goals for the White guys while Magoo scored one for someone.  Last week, we reported how Thor, Beak and Stump were hit by a "Gravity Storm"*.  This week, The Anvil suffered a Gravity Storm caused by MF.  It knocked him into the net with the puck for a meaningless goal.
*You can find out more about a Gravity Storm by listening to
Jimmy Buffett's CD titled "Off To See The Lizard"
We all learn early that when you mess with Gravity, you lose!
Beak got to Henry's early after entertaining 40 Bativia kids with a view of Jupiter in his telescope.  He sat all alone with a pitcher waiting for the rest of the team to show up.  No one told him that they changed restaurants.  After singing 3 Jimmy Buffett songs and running out of beer, he was about to go home when Cougenhour saved the day!
Fortunately Butt Head and Doc showed and they were able to hunt down the team in the family restaurant next door.
This Report just came in!
The Blue team should have purchased the Stump grinder last week, because Stump was on his game last Friday, helping the White's to a rare Meaningful / Meaningless combination victory.  Johnny Z got the Meaningless scoring started for the White's when he slipped one past the Anvil very early in
the 1st period.  Number Seven was inspired by something.  After the first goal, Don Granato carried the white team, with the first Meaningful hat trick since last spring.  The first two were easy and obviously flustered the blue team.  His final goal of the night was interrupted by a couple of meaningless goals from Fetting and somebody else I can't remember, who didn't pour Rich Storm a beer.   Special accolades go out to Thor Miller who contributed in his own way. (by pouring the reporters a beer)  With his son not skating, Miller was able to concentrate his efforts into helping
his team, as opposed to chasing his son, with the empty hopes of knocking him off his stride.  The result of his effort was 3 assists, 2 meaningful and one meaningless.
    With the score 6-0 going into the 3rd period.  The only one to point out Stump's shutout was his center, King Kong Zagorski.  Stump assured him the shutout wouldn't last past the first two minutes. Hitman was pleased to oblige Stump by narrowing the Meaningful margin 3-1.  The Blues had 4
unanswered goals in the final period from the sticks of Berzerk, Cough-an- hour, and another Meaningful by Klinger, who used a couple screens to his advantage from the slot.    With no scoring from the White team in the third period, the highlight for them came when the King had to cover for his aggressive partner on defense, (son of knarf).  The Doc was moving in on a break-away when The King sacrificed his body.  The result was the best hit this reporter has seen since Thor, Beak and Stump were hit by a "Gravity Storm"  The Doc managed to get his skates over his own head and come down before the final buzzer sounded.  That was a Class 5 Gravity Storm.
