It's that time of year again Folks! Dust off your tuxedo's, put on your clean undies, polish up your leather shoes....the MBHA Awards Banquet is THIS EVENING, and I'm more excited this year than last for one simple reason:
S-T-E-A-K ! ! ! !
For those of you who want to see the list of Nominees, check back on Summer Page of the Website (it's a frickin' long list). Good luck to ALL OF YOU'SE!!! I'll be there off to the side taking pictures for the site, so for any potential winners out there remember the steps on taking a great awards picture:
Not ONLY is tonight a GREAT WAY to end the 2008 Summer Ball Hockey Season -- it's the EASIEST way to show your support for Team MB and the other boys (CTO and CK) heading out to Vancouver next week. Let's go get us some HARDWARE BOYEEEZ!!!
Last Scrimmage: Team MB vs Cereal Killers
I was called into duty last night unexpectedly -- Team MB Picture day. I wasn't planning on heading out to watch it because I have a list of website stuff I want to do prior to heading out to Vancouver, but I got the call to come out and take some pictures for the Team Roster. Go check out the pics on the Team MB Report page on the website ( http://www.manitobaballhockey.com/columns/teammb.html). Notice the cage behind them....I'm thinking it makes them look mean and intimidating. Good luck boys.
The rest of the night was spent timekeeping for the Team MB vs C.Killers scrimmage. Team MB came out flying -- you KNOW they are PUMPED to get the tournament started. All in all, it was a good tune up for both teams, allowing them to both stretch the legs and get out there for their LAST run on Manitoba soil before the squads head out west to Vancouver. And I got some new threads to boot!!
Will I be posting Daily Results from Vancouver?
Abso-frickin-lutely!! As well, I'll be updating the Daily Scores Section of the Summer Page daily w/ the outcomes of the Manitoba games. The CBHA should have a page setup for the standings and the outcomes of the other teams.
This BLOG will be the place to read about the details of each game and/or getting live updates at the end of each period (for those games I'll be watching). I'm not too sure on how many pictures I'll be able to take if I'm ALSO going to be videorecording, but we'll figure that all out.
Plus, last year Jeff (Coach Team MB) had a blog on the Team MB Report....I'm thinking I will most likely create a SEPARATE BLOG here at http://thestatsman.blogspot.com for Jeff's daily updates. I'll add a link from the Team MB Report page to that new blog when I set it up and we work out the details.
Hope to see lots of you loyal readers @ the Norvilla tonight!! If you have any suggestions on what you want covered while I'm out there, let me know tonight.
Get Hooked -- PLAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAYYYY Ball Hockey!!

I'll be there off to the side taking pictures for the site, so for any potential winners out there remember the steps on taking a great awards picture:
- Face the camera, grab the trophy w/ one hand...
- ..and reach for the handshake w/ the other hand
- ..and REMEMBER TO HOLD THAT HANDSHAKE until the flash goes off
- ..then get out of the way so I can get the next picture.
