Who needs the conference tournament when you can skip it, get a week's rest, and still make the NCAA tournament? I feel bad for those dumbass teams who actually played in their conference tournament and wasted their energy... rookies! HUGE game this weekend down at Maryland for the 1st round. I know the boys are ready to go and this saturday is gonna be a tough fight, but we love scrappin on the turnpike so we'll take it!
This team has the tools to go deep in this tournament. Our attack is dirty, they combine for 142 points this year with 88 goals out of the 173 we've scored. Lincoln has the sickest mullet in division 1, if not society all together. His fake shot is ridiculous (see an older post for a video of it), and he did it to a jacksonville player who literally ducked and looked at the goal for the ball. We were laughing our asses off in the stands but felt so bad for the kid b/c I know for damn sure that I'm falling for it too if I play defense on him. Next year's alumni game I'll make sure I face guard him the whole time I'm on him so it decreases the chances of me making a fool of myself. Notice how I saw "decrease my chances" b/c I know at some point ill make a fool of myself in that game even without falling for his fake shot. Lately, Lincoln hasn't been playing like he did earlier in the season but that only means one thing.... he's blowing up this weekend at Maryland. I'm saying 4 goals for the lefty and 1 fake shot that will make the Maryland defenseman look like a beginner.
Jay Card is the other part of the 1-2 combo that this attack has. He shoots the shit out of the ball and has been on fire as of late. Last year's CAA player of the year is playing well when it counts and hopefully that will continue this weekend. I'm gonna say Jay Card goes for 2 & 2 on saturday.
Now a lot of attention on this team goes to the Canucks, and rightfully so, but then BAM! a god damn massapequa Chief comes out of nowhere and puts up 40pts in the regular season. Now for all of you that don't know Farmingdale (where I'm from) and Pequa are rivals and I hate Massapequa except for their chicks. I can add my second thing I don't hate from Massapequa and it's Stephen Bentz. Carrot Top is just killin it lately! (sorry bentz had to mention the red hair at some point) I mean he had 5 goals against towson and shoulda had 6 or 7 that night too.
The attack is stacked and every opponent knows that they are most of the scoring but still can't contain them. One game Card will have 5, the next Lincoln will have 5, and then you try to shut them out and then Bentz scores 5! Thank youuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuu.. come again!
Denapoli is just a straight up beast. He does everything and reminds me of Kevin Unterstein a lot. The kid is fast as shit, scoops up every ground ball, and most importantly USES A WOODEN STICK! Enough said, he's the man he uses a wooden stick. I know those things hurt like a bitch b/c unterstein used to hit me every damn practice and I wanted to rip his head off for it. I just looked at Maryland's stats and their best middie has 13 points. Is this for real? One of the attackmen listed on Lax.com have to play middie. If their best middie has 13 points well then Denapoli is going to eat you up!
And of course you have #22, TI, as the other D-middie along side Denapoli. First off he wears the best number out there. And he's such a meathead it's great. The kid plays his balls off every game and especially now because it's win or go home to yorktown for him. There's no doubt he's leaving everything he's got on that field on Saturday. But put these two together and it's fucken real hard to score some goals, especially when you have only 13 points in 14 games.
Also on a side note, TI & Denapoli have a foursome for the dutch dome open. They have their shit together and everyone else needs to get it done and send me their foursomes! And yes, Denapoli will be using wooden golf clubs just like he does on the lacrosse field.
Game Prediction: Hofstra 12, Maryland 9
Okay way too much "dude" talk and not enough chicks. So here:
