It was another season to remember as underdogs the green machine ECO faced off against the big smoke STS in the Moosehead Cup Spring Finals 2016. The Big Smoke started off hot taking and early and dominant 3-0 lead. With Captain Cody Bojangles quoted on the bench saying “fuck ya I’m proud of my team we each had a six pack and a bowl of Marshall’s pasta before the game so the fact we can even move is amazing.”
With the final all but wrapped up the Green Machine were able to find another gear led by Captain John Tigerbeer and pulled back two quick goals to make it a close 3-2 game. When asked about his team’s heart and grit on the bench Tigerbeer said “I might be old but these boys have grit to them, like grizzled vets, like Leonardo DiCaprio in The Revanant. Win or lose these boys deserve an Oscar and a cold PBR.”
The game was on the line, the prize of taking reflected nude selfies in the Moosehead Cup was within each team’s grasp. The Big Smoke and Cap’n Bojangles quickly stoked the fire and blew 2 more goals along with an empty netter to take all the steam out of The Green Machine and make the final score 6-2.
After the win, league MVP Jeff “played well” Baxter was spotted celebrating at a local McDonalds devouring McGangBangs and Rootbeer. Perhaps the secret diet to elite play?
A classic final between two classic teams and their captains.
