http://clarencerosario.blogspot.com/2006_11_01_archive.html
Two Minutes Of Shame. You go to the box, you know. Two minutes by yourself, and you feel shame.". Monday, November 13, 2006. When Going 2-2 Feels Like A Winning Streak. Since starting off the season 1-5, it was clear that this Blue Bombers team was a bit of a head-scratch for my veteran teammates. Seems that last season, the Blue Bombers went 12-5 en route to a 2nd round playoff exit. Amazing how much my presence can turn a team around, eh? After winning our first game. I apologize to the guy after the g...

Two Minutes Of Shame. You go to the box, you know. Two minutes by yourself, and you feel shame.". Sunday, January 21, 2007. Making the "O" Face: Blue Bombers 1, Bombers 4. There's one thing that's sure different about playing hockey in New York: I can't score. With the 19-Jan-07 final-game loss to the cellar-dwelling Bombers. They were 3-12-1 at the time), I finished the first season of my beer-league career without a goal. Not so out here. Sure, I've had a few chances. Story of my (offensive) season.

Two Minutes Of Shame. You go to the box, you know. Two minutes by yourself, and you feel shame.". Sunday, March 18, 2007. Do You Believe In Miracles? Yes, yes I do believe in miracles." - Vladislav Tretiak, Do You Believe in Miracles? The Story of the 1980 U.S. Hockey Team. So do I. Because on March 16, 2007, a full 6 months after I began skating at Chelsea Piers, and almost 20 games after I joined the Blue Bombers, a miracle occurred. I scored a goal. But it seemed that getting off. It was almost anti-c...

Two Minutes Of Shame: December 2006
http://clarencerosario.blogspot.com/2006_12_01_archive.html
Two Minutes Of Shame. You go to the box, you know. Two minutes by yourself, and you feel shame.". Saturday, December 30, 2006. What's This "Winning" Thing? Blue Bombers 4, Jaguars 3. Holy shit. Is that a "W" I see? I mean, it's been 2 months since the Blue Bombers came out on the right side of the score, and that was a 3-0 win in October. We'd dropped 6 games in the intervening weeks, mercifully broken up by holidays. Mathematically, and all, we're still in it. Posted by Clarence Rosario at 8:39 AM.

Two Minutes Of Shame: August 2006
http://clarencerosario.blogspot.com/2006_08_01_archive.html
Two Minutes Of Shame. You go to the box, you know. Two minutes by yourself, and you feel shame.". Wednesday, August 30, 2006. East v. West. So, I'm finally skating out here at Chelsea Piers. I started skating in the Instructional Session. Which is the moral equivalent to the Thursday night skate at OIC. Well, with a few notable differences:. It, like everything in NYC, is a little "pricey". OIC: $12/session. Chelsea Piers: about $31/session. Almost like paying for a season in advance. And it's a good thi...

Two Minutes Of Shame. You go to the box, you know. Two minutes by yourself, and you feel shame.". Saturday, February 24, 2007. Getting Off On The Wrong Skate: Los Guapos 7, Blue Bombers 0. And so the Spring season begins at Chelsea Piers. Certainly picking up where we left off. Despite a relatively full roster and low-impact eval. Recruiting session, the Blue Bombers are still looking for their stride. And the net. I think I got a shot or two off, but overall, I felt like I was watching the game more tha...

Two Minutes Of Shame. You go to the box, you know. Two minutes by yourself, and you feel shame.". Monday, October 16, 2006. Lucky Friday the 13th: Blue Bombers 5, Avengers 3. Ding, dong, the Witch is dead! The spectre of an 0-5 start is gone, vanguished by a convincing 5-3 win over the Avengers. On Friday the 13th, which I've always considered luckier than, say, Friday the 22nd. Posted by Clarence Rosario at 12:32 PM. Sunday, October 08, 2006. At Least It Wasn't My Fault: NY Lions 11, Blue Bombers 5.

Two Minutes Of Shame. You go to the box, you know. Two minutes by yourself, and you feel shame.". Saturday, September 23, 2006. Swiss Cheese: Blast 7, Blue Bombers 4. And then, depression set in. You know, thanks to my old (tor)mentors back at OIC, I fancied myself at least a decent defenseman: I can pivot (mostly) without falling, picked up skating backwards and crossovers quicker than most at my level of (in)experience, and could hang in Bronze and Silver B. On a single shift. A couple of guys in my lo...
