^ Especially if they served the liquids that accompanied the great pizza in large pitchers!
And that was a VERY long time ago.

I remember the Chianti bottles on the tables with candles in them and the wax dripping down. Ah, the good old days!

We beat Maine 3-2 on OT yesterday. One of our goals made ESPN's Top Ten this morning.

I have a question. I saw on twitter yesterday that we were about to go to a shootout vs. the Riverhawks. The game was 2-2 after two overtimes. I found the game easily on ESPN+. Each team gets five one-on-ones vs. the goalie. It went to the last shooter (for us), who scored giving us the victory.
The question: All the attackers used just about all of their available seconds trying to approach the keeper - who comes far out of the goal - and fake her out and then get an edge to take a shot. There is physical contact. The Lowell defender was quite aggressive about coming straight out. I was wanting our attacker to just fire away, as there seemed room (like in ice hockey) to find a corner. Does the stick or the ball not make that possible? Or?
Anyone?
