Championships and Shark Pools

It was been a few days since my last post and a lot has happened in the world so here we go….

Unless you live under a rock or you don’t care, the Pittsburgh Penguins won the Cup of Stanley Friday night over the Detroit Red Wings in an amazing game 7. What makes this victory even sweeter is the Pens got to raise the cup in Detroit’s home ice. Below is a video recapping the entire night, enjoy!

It has been known that I may or may not have a dude crush on Coach Dan Bylsma. Let me just take this time to say congrats to Disco and the rest of the coaching staff, you did an amazing job bringing this team from out of playoff contention to having your name engraved on Lord Stanley.


This past Sunday through Tuesday was a historic one; the original four were once again reunited and that means there will be stories. Sunday night started off eventful and I personal thought that would last, I was wrong. After a few IC Lights and some games of cornhole someone got the great idea to drink some homemade wine and do shots of goose. Next thing I know it is 2 am and we are watching season 5 of Entourage.

The next morning sucked; now I hate hangovers like everyone else, but that one just sucked. After we all woke we started to piece together the events from the previous night. My main concern was my lower back felt like I fell 5 feet straight on my back, which is because Corey C. decided it would be a great idea to spear me off the top railing of a deck. After regrouping we decided that floating down the river would be our main objective of the day.

The plan was mapped out, James and I would get the floating fuel and a new floating device while the Corey’s would pick up Doc for a brief lunch at Ruby’s. After some mini burgers and salads were dominated it was on, next stop the river. Now before I go any further I must explain what type of floating device we chose to purchase. We said we would purchase a mini pool because they provide the best floatability, long story short we settled on a pool that looked like an aggressive shark. This was a great choice incase we run into any unruly fellow floaters.

So our adventure began, floating down the mighty Susquehanna only moments on the river we notices some floating particles, after a brief but yet informative discussion we decided it was bass flu. The rest of the trip included a lot of IC Light, jokes about ones sister, and trying to bail the water out of the shark pool. After a 2 ½ hour trip we figured we would make a stop and return some of the floatation devices we used, while doing so we destroyed a watermelon and pillaged some headbands.

We returned back to our place of rest where we had some chicken and continued with more IC, cornhole, and added some golf and cigars. This took place until we decided to go watch more entourage at 4 in the morning. At last we saw the sun come up around 5:45am just as we were turning in the night or day. After getting 3 hours of sleep I decided that at that point in my life I have had enough IC Light and listened to enough Dave Matthews Bands to last me for a few months. So what can I do at 9:00 while everyone else is enjoying their beauty sleep? The only thing any right man would do in my place, watch Major League. After laughing loud enough because I was too tired to sleep and because I was bored watching it alone so they would wake up, they didn’t. Finally everyone wakes up around noon, so we finally finish season 5 of Entourage and grab some cereal at 2 in the afternoon. After that it was time for us to say our goodbyes and move on back to the real world. Good times!
