Week 3: Canicius

Lost and Found, Part Deux"

After a week in which our 'Cats came out looking like LOST kittens for 2 quarters I don't think the boys will have trouble FINDING a little fire for Buffalo Canisius this weekend. Fortunately, they FOUND the "on" switch and played like they are capable of in the 2nd half. So after only 6 quarters of football, we FIND ourselves 2-0.

I happened to FIND Frank Ross hunkered down next to the Mobile ManCave, concentrating on his knitting a few hours before kick off. You read that right. Knitting. Frank Ross.

Tim Sarac apparently LOST his schedule - he came dressed in Glenville colors for last week's game. Oh, and John Kobunski - it's not "as we hail the Blue and Green". Wearing green on the day we play Gang Green - very poor form.

I FOUND out this week that Anne Hopkins did not go to Mass to pray for Jim (sorry Jimbo); she and Patty Dowd apparently went to St Charles to pray for the team. Anne, Patty and St Charles Borromeo have now teamed up to go 2-0; a new lucky ritual is born. I don't know how they're going to handle it for the away games at Harding and Buffalo St Francis - they'll figure it out. (Honey, I'll text you updates)

Frank - seriously - you know your way around a ball of yarn?!?

Bob Ambrose was FOUND wandering the TailCat - no dish in hand. I guess if it doesn't begin with "fried" he's not helping. We'll give him a pass - I wouldn't be jumping in line for fried bratwurst, either.

Pat Ryan was at the TailCat and - does Pat do anything other than eat and smoke cigars at these things?!?

I'm tellin ya - the man said he knits while wife JoAnn reads. Or she knits while he organizes the yarn (what does that mean, exactly?). Something like that. Either way, it's just wrong. Frank, I - please, fix it.

Axel Hoyer was FOUND explaining himself to the City of Parma HazMat team. Seems he had not one but two oil spills and grease fires. You won't see him this week for Canisius - his blistered legs are in gauze from the knees down. But the schnitzel made it all worth it.

Yes, Kevin Thomas did not show up empty-handed this week. Well, technically, he did - I think he made Gail carry everything in. Then he dumped all his brats on Jim Hopkins' grill. Nice move, rook.

This week's theme: ITALIAN

VANNO I GATTI SELVATICI !!

PS Frank, I'm an XL if you're going to make that pullover. Something in school colors, maybe a nice apres-ski kinda pattern across the chest?
