Mike Matteucci

Longbeach Ice Dogs
IHL

Ok, so I don't sound the obesessive teeny bopper, let me just say Mike Matteucci is an awesome player. The entire Ice Dog's team are great players and bring back honest sportamanship. When I went to their game vs. my home team, the Milwaukee Admirals, yesterday (3-4-00), they seemed to have a lot more fun with the game, and it was just...something about them. I know next to nothing about hockey except for the sad details I learned from the Mighty Ducks movies when I was younger, but I still love watching it. So, welcome to my mini shrine for Tooch and the rest of the Ice Dogs. Hockey isn't an overpaid, over rated sport like baseball, basketball, and football. So, this is my newest obsession. Tooch is a cutie, and if you read his info (pic's linked) he's got goals. (Heh, unfotunately he's also got a wife and a kid and he's, what? 15 years older than me. ;) If you have any info on this team or of Mike, pleeeease let me know.

My babble about the game:
It was sooooo funny. Amanda, one of my other bestest buds (don't worry Meggieroo, you know enough to black mail me throughout a billion lifetimes. You HAFTA stay my bestest friend.) and I were checking out the guys on both teams. Well, of course we root for the cuter, younger, better Ice Dogs. So I'm all pointing to the ice and how I want a puck...and Doug Ast, one of the players, cute I might add, flips me a puck over the side while they're warming up. (Hey, Marc Moro from the Admirals isn't too bad, either.) And I was checking out some other guy during the game, and he happened to see my giggling and slobbering. Yes, Bekki needs to get out more. But hey, I'm getting a job asap. That could help...and pay for more hockey tickets. I feel sorry for some of the little kids who sat around us. They kept getting smacked with pucks. Good seats though, 3rd row from the ice. And only $8. What was REALLY scare was the larger than lifed sized rugrat characters walking around. *shudder* Well, needless to say, the Slush Puppies (hah, deragatory so you thought!) won...during the shoot out. But I haven't had that much fun in awhile, so eh....I had every right to gawk, gush, drool, babble, giggle, and every other scary non-me thing  I happened to do. Damn them though. No programs with the Ice Dog's pics. Stupid Milwaukee. Should live in CA.
