Team Winner of 2 Straight

6Ft Over Tailgators won for the second time in as many weeks this Wednesday night bringing their season record to 4-2.  The team is delighted to have a winning record for the first time since the days of the AEGON Rec League.  Their last two opponents, Rush, and 3 Rivers Legend, were no match for the squad led by Tyler Albers and JR Russel.  With only 3 games left this season, things look good for the squad finishing above .500.

There is, however, one looming make-up game scheduled at the end of the season that could spell trouble of the proud team.  This game is tentatively penciled in for March 17th.  As many drunks and Irishmen might already know, March 17th just happens to be St. Patrick's Day.  For a team littered with both drunks and Irish, this could spell disaster if the game is enforced.  Forward Nick "Big Cock" Hach has already committed to a drunken may-lay at Tailgators headquarters during the proposed game time.  Shupert, Russel, and Hasenmiller also will be indulging in the life of the Irish and will definitely not be suiting up sober, even if a winning record is on the line.


Back in 2009, 6Ft Over found themselves in similar circumstances.  Coach Jeff Reiners and star forward Aaron Shupert were spotted boozing down at a local pub right before tip-off of a regular season game.  Not only did they play well, the team destroyed their competition in what is now only referred to as the "St. Patties Day Massacre".  Hopefully the team will still have a little luck of the Irish left in them this year as they most certinly will need it.
