I am just a man. I am a father, a son, and a husband. I am a homemaker, caretaker, coach, writer, speaker, and photographer. I love God. I love my family. I love my country. God has blessed my family and I, and I am eternally grateful. Author of Generation Jumping: Losing those who are not lost. Downtime with my family is about as good as it gets for me. Being outdoors in nature, among the animals and the wilderness, the Created, comes pretty close. Baseball, followed by hockey, are my two favorite sports, with several others a close third. I would rather do it right the first time. Honesty, respect, and integrity are virtues that I hold dear, so I call it like I see it. Before we as a society attempt to re-define these words, I will be here telling the raw truth.
Perhaps this page is just for me. I look for results, numbers, and other things having to do with NHIAA Hockey, many times after seasons are long gone. So, here is a bunch of stuff, on one page.
“Sticks and Stones” is an English-language children’s rhyme.
The rhyme is used as a defense against name-calling and verbal bullying, intended to increase resiliency, avoid physical retaliation, and/or to remain calm and indifferent.
The full rhyme is usually a variant of:
Sticks and stones may break my bones
But words shall never hurt me.
There was a good crowd on hand at Tri-Town Ice Arena on Wednesday night for the Brady-Valley’s last game of the season. The Giants gave a good battle, but in the end, the Grizzlies offense kept rolling along. Goffstown secured a #4 seed in the standings with their 8-3 triumph on Ryan Frew Memorial Rink.
The breaks and bounces went the War Hawks way during a three-goal second period 68 days earlier on December 16th. On Grizzlies Senior Night, the breaks and bounces went Goffstown’s way en route to a 3-0 win.
If you have nothing nice to say, say nothing at all. Except, I describe the goals (read on) and a few facts. That is all.
The Bearcats came to Sullivan Arena to play the Goffstown Grizzlies hockey team on a Wednesday night in February. They were already down five players when they arrived. Then they were down five goals. Goffstown skated to an 8-0 win versus a shorthanded roster.
The Giants gave everything they had, but a shorter bench lost steam as the game went along. The Grizzlies Hockey team kept coming in waves. Wave after wave on the attack, they eventually built on their lead en route to victory.
