Special Press Release for NNBM Hockey Team
A.P. Boston Mass. At a press conference in its brand new training facility, The NNBM Hockey franchise announced its roster for the 2001-2002 season. Coach Altair19 predicted the team will be mounting a comeback this year after devastating losses last year.
Starting at center will be Rocket Roserrsp...she is the team's only Canadian, is a strong skater and keeps the team in line. Left wing this year will be elpolvo who will double as the team's public relations liaison. Right wing this year will again go to Claptonsguitar...a metropolitan New York based player with major attitude necessary for the position. The defensive pairing this year will be Dalin and She_X, both noted for tough play and rigorous defending in the crease. At goal this year, a surprise, the NNBM drafted Dealer, from the Voltaire's Porch farm system; she has consistently demonstrated team play throughout the year and deserved the shot.
The new draft choices this year, despite the heavy up front investment, include JAtticus, T.L. Cominsky, Picscatologist,Poet and Red Scouser who will also double as the team's photographer. Scott Mantz has not appeared for training camp...rumors that he is vacationing in Vietnam could not be confirmed. And in a bold move, NNBM will be drafting Thames-sider from the European League despite the time differences and his ability to make practice.
Altair19 will be retained as coach this year despite his dreadful record last year and losing in the SiliconInvestor League playoffs last year. Coach Altair commented "this will be a very unusual team this year but will clearly be a contender for the playoffs; most of our players have improved their skating ability and will be ready to use sticks this year". Coach Altair did guarantee the loyal fans that the NNBM will continue its tradition of being the funniest team in the league. |
