I have officially signed us up for the winter league. Like we said before it cost $5600. There are 23 regular season games, and the playoffs are double elimination. Everyone is going to have to put down $200 to start. It is going to be due by the first game of the season which is going to be the end of september beginning of october. I will get the due date asap. Then it will be prob like another $125 each which will be due in January I believe. Yes $325 seems like a lot, but its only $75 more than what we payed for the summer and its double the games. If you cant do it or arent interested please let me know asap so we can try to find someone else to replace you.

Awsome work last night guys. Thats how we should play everyone. Great job staying out of the box and keeping our cool when they started to get fustrated. Of course that is until the end. But thats not our fault we had to protect our guys. If we play that kinda hockey this season were going to be great. Its showed last night. Good work and lets bring this same game week to week.

Ok so as most of us know right now this entire situation going on after the last game. Well heres what im saying about the whole thing. This is the most crazy and unfair thing that this stupid leauge could do. Suspend the fans? Cuz of one stupid thing? Well listen this is to far. To threaten to call the cops on a fan for watching the game? Yea I dont know how any of you guys feel about this but I have heard enough. This guy is just trying to make a statement here and its so out of control. They clearly hate us here and its not worth it. Fuckin fat jew has more to lose than we do in this. 6,000 bucks to play a season and hes going to pull that shit? Simple as this they call the cops on any fan and I will be leaving the game right then and there and I will not be returning to the team. We have alot of great fans that watch us every week and non of them deserve this punishment. Im sorry but I feel like this guy is trying to scare us into being this model team. Well pal this is hockey and that how hockey is played. Go run a polo leauge if thats what kinda bullshit you want. I know this isnt everyones view of the situation but it is mine. I will not play in a leauge that is willing to call the cops on a whole group of great fans over 1 incedent. I feel like there is a whole lot better things I could do with the money than to be tested and pushed like this. So yea thats my rant. I know I will get negative responses from this but it is my opinion and that I am entitled to.
Thankyou

LOL calm down man.. You got this all wrong.. He didnt threaten to call the cops. He told me the same thing that the rink manager in Malden told me after the game. He said if any fight breaks out on the rinks property it is his responsibility as the rink manager to call the cops. If someone who doesnt belong on the ice its his responsibility to call the cops. He clearly stated after the game that he wasnt going to call the cops, but could get in serious trouble for not. That rule has nothing to do with the league at all. Thats the rules of all of the individual rinks. The league dropped Arthurs suspension to 2 games and is checking into why the score keeper went against what the refs told him. That sounds to me like the league isnt against us there. Yea you pay $6000 but that doesnt mean you can break rules. The rules are there for a reason. We have played 17 games in this league and have been in 5 fights, of course they arent happy with us. Everytime there is a penalty whether its a good or not half the team starts yelling at the refs. The rules clearly say fighting will not be accepted at all, and also says verbal or physical abuse of refs will not be tolerated at all. So just because you pay $5600 doesnt mean that the rules dont exist. When you sign up for the league you are agreeing to follow all rules that the league and the rink have. And yes I do believe some refs call bad penalties to get at us, but if we just kept our mouths shut, me including, then I promise you that the refs would let it go and it would be much more enjoyable for everyone. And the guy obv after everything we have done since joining the league feels its time to make a statement to let us know that rules are meant to be followed.
As for the no fans allowed. What can you do? The rules were broken and it made the team, and the league look bad. The rink manager could get in a lot of shit for that and lose his job. So I am sure this isnt just a league ruling about no fans. And I admitted to the commish that it was someone who was with us and he still banned fans for the Renegades for a month also. So again he isnt picking on us there either. I highly doubt he is going to keep fans away for a month. I dont know why you cant understand that just because you pay all this $$ that things like this is ok. We are in this situation only because of ourselves. Yes this fight wasnt our fault the goalie started it, but I am sure they are saying enough is enough with us and wants us to know that. The head ref said to me last season that all we have to do is play the game and not do all the extra bullshit and everything will be fine, and he was right. For a whole game we did great. Didnt argue with the refs stayed out of trouble for the most part and we played great and the refs were very nice to me after the game when everything was getting sorted out.

Also you keep saying 1 incident with our fans but its not. In Revere against JAFHT Mike Firmani ran over to their bench and was looking for a fight. The Revere rink manager caught it and said something. In Malden when they canceled the game against the Blackhawks, Richie was hanging over the boards calling the refs pussies and trying to start a fight. Big Rich was in the refs face screaming at them also this night. So this isnt the first incident. And like I said before, after I admitted Marianne was with us he still isnt allowing the Renegades to have fans at their games either.

guys, and girls, lets just try to put this behind us and play some hockey, whats done is done and the only thing we all can do is go out there and play some hockey. No matter what the refs call good or bad, no matter what other players say to us and try to get us going because every team knows that we all get aggravated easily and they all use that against us. We had an awsome game Tuesday and we stayed out of the box for the better part of the game. if we keep that up we can earn the leagues respect again and thats what we need to do! Ya its a hockey game but its not the NHL. its a senior league offered to people who are willing to pay so they can play the game that they enjoy after work. I just think we should bite this for now and play the game its a long season ahead of us and we can show this league that we are better then what we were last season.

Ya i def agree we need to stay out fo the box and we def did it last game.I mean hey look at the kid and me. He pushed me i could of took him to the ground but i kept my cool and we got a 5 min power play and if i can remember we scored atleast one goal. So tonight we def need to keep our mouths shut, stay out of the box, dont do any BS plays and we should be ok. We always get hurt when we r a man down and we def can hurt the other team when we are a man up. Ill see you all tonight hopefully its a hockey game and not a shit show.. LATER
