Wayne's Hockey Team Wins the Cup!
Okay, I know this doesn't
have anything to do with my show. But people ask me and I like to brag when I
get a chance...
Two years ago I won my first ever hockey cup with Team Picklehead. But I also
play on another team every week in the Over 40 League, or,
as I like to refer to it, the Geezers' Beer League.
Our team started out 0-6 and spent a good part of the regular season in last
place. But we came on at the end and got on a playoff run,
defeating the first place team in the final. I don't care how many times this
happens to me down the road, but I know I'll never
get tired of skating a cup. And even though it's an old guys' beer league, it
really feels like I just won the Stanley Cup!

And now...the good part!
With Bern Lavesque, a Canadian, a great
teammate, and a MUCH better skater than me
and yes, we drank out of the Cup in the
locker room. That's Pabst Blue Ribbon in there, and it tasted as bad as it
looks.
