“My boy’s gonna to play in the big league, my boy’s going to turn some heads, my boy’s gonna play in the big league, ooohhh… the Beer League!!!” Nothing is better than playing with your own son. We played together lots years ago on the B & R Bullets rec team when Jordan  was younger and living at home, but this was the first time in about 10 years that we played on the same team. And if you ever get the chance to skate with your grandson than do it, because that’s really special. Of course he was too young to play a game in the Jim Vinge Memorial Tournament, you must be 18 to play , but he did do the warm up with us and that was really cool. The 7th annual Jim Vinge Memorial Tournament was held this past weekend and it was fun as always. It’s a great way to end the season, see some old friends, and share a lot of  laughs. My  good buddy Jim Vinge loved the game of hockey, he loved his family and we worked the time box together for most of his own kids games. He would make lots of  C.D’s  . with hockey music for us to play. The air horn was his idea. We hooked it up just before the 2006 peewee provincials.   Anyone can play in this year end last hurray  tournament , male or female and  as long as you  can still lace them up there’s no age limit …63 and still counting on playing again next year,. And I ‘ the Sportshound ‘ scored 2 goals. One of the ‘ Bruise Brothers ‘ Andrew Jenner who played minor hockey here was on our team and said that I must put my own name in the sports write up  just like I did for him and his brother Matthew when they played. These young kids have all grown up into fine young men and women and one day may get to play with their own kids.
