I Am King Kong
I seem to have gone through a phase where I thought it prudent to cut my hockey sticks short, too short. They looked child sized next to the other people on my team, so after months of bending over and not always having my stick on the ice, I broke down and spent a whopping $5 on an extension, sort of like a hair extension but not quite. I cut it down a bit and still have a stick that's a good 3 inches longer than before. As some of you already know, 3 inches in a lot of things makes a huge difference and the same is true for hockey sticks!

I played my first game with the MegaStick yesterday and felt like fucking King Kong. My pokechecks were right on, I could reach farther without stooping over and nobody got past me. A couple of times I toyed with the oncoming opponent but then reached out with my MegaStick and poked the puck away at the last minute. We won the game, 4-2. The 2 were NOT scored on the me and the MegaStick.

Woo! I played three games this weekend, with a record of 2-1. Not too shabby.
