SUNDAY 11/1 (CANCELLED) NEXT DATE 11/15

Hi Guys,

Sorry, but due to the fact it may rain and also the NYC Marathon,
we are canceling 11/1 Avenue F Hockey. We will pick it up on
11/15 9 am down at Avenue F. And this way Glenn Gruder still
has more time to lift weights and get into shape.

So in the meantime here are more pictures from the old days.

Thanks,
Ron

HOCKEY CANCELED FOR 11/1 (Due to rain and marathon) New Date 11/15 9am

HOCKEY CANCELED FOR 11/1 (Due to rain and marathon) New Date 11/15 9am

Sunday November 1st @ 9 am Avenue F

OK, so the next planned scrimmage is this Sunday November 1st @
9 am down at Avenue F. The only problem is it is the same day as the NY Marathon. So please check what roads are good to get into the city. The biggest problem will be the Verrazano bridge, which will be closed all day. So if you are coming in from Jersey take the Holland Tunnel or Lincoln.

It really does not cause many problems, except for the Verrazano and the FDR Drive. The West side is a clean run from the GW to the Battery Tunnel.

We are all waiting for the grand entrance of Glenn Gruder. I heard he is trash talking everyone about how much better he is and how he can still skate everyone under the table. How his body is an example of what women want while the rest of us are just ones and blubber. Yes, Gruder has been talking a lot, so I hope he really shows up so he can teach us all a lesson.

Some more blasts from the past

Looks like Neil O'Callaghan taking a slap shot with Bob Lesser looking on. Then more of the Avenue F Flyers sitting on the bench outside of the rink (on top). Can anyone identify the players in the picture?

For Inky

Next Game 11/1/09 @ 9 am

We are an older group of hockey players (35-55) looking to just have some fun and share some laughs. Many of us in fact played down at Avenue F in the 70's and 80's, so being back here is just like old times. We are looking to get together about once a month because that's how long it usually takes to recover!

Our pick-up games start around 9 am and last a couple of hours.
No rough stuff or fighting please, because we all ready did that when we were younger. Also please bring one dark and one light jersey.

Inky's Fundraiser Game (10/4/09)

I just wanted to say thank you to all the guys who came down to the reunion game today. We were able to raise just over 500 dollars for Inky's family. It was a total blast and I'm sure we will all see each other again.

Hey, Sunday November 1st looks like a perfect day to play again,
how about it boys?

Avenue F Reunion Game

Fred Allen Memorial Game (October 2005)

Here are some pictures to get you guys in the mood. And no you don't have to pop open that bottle of Viagra for this one. No, just your stick, skates, and some hockey gloves. Be there October 4th at 9 am for our first of many Old Timers games down at Avenue F. We plan to collect some money for Inky's family the first game.

The 67 pct Blues

They came from a distant land, somewhere on the other side of Brooklyn. With names like Buell, Randazzo, Arnold, Cunningham, McMorrow and McNiel, they were probably more like us than we realized. Yet the 67th Pct. Blues were the "outsiders" when it came to Avenue F. And whenever we played them it was always guaranteed to be an event. Fights, breakaways, cursing, and of course their "fans" standing on the bench giving us a hard time.

Back in 2005 we had a reunion game at Avenue F, and many of the original Blues showed up. Afterwards there were drinks at the Gallery and talk about the old days. No, there were no fights or cursing, just talk about roller hockey and the game we all loved so much.

Hey, if any of you guys are out there, I'll be getting the court at Avenue F starting on Sunday October 4th form 9-12. We plan on having some pick-up games every other Sunday till late December. And I hope you boys can make it.

Thanks for the memories,
Ronnie Lopez

Well, I'm not 17 anymore but at 51 can still stop a puck and skate you under the table. So show me what you got and be there Sunday October 4th and I'll kick your ass at "Showdown in the NHL"'. Yeah, whatever hair I have is grey as the concrete and I had my knee repaired already. But still I'll whoop you and stick my catch glove right in your face with that new Scotch 88 and show you who's boss.

Ok, well thats enough of my "Trash" talk, and where's my oxygen tank on that little hand-truck anyway?
