Episode 5.16

Another missed week thanks to various scheduling issues, and Tyler wasn’t even able to join us. But a short show is better than no show at all!

Awesome: Vaughn Harris, Joey Cupido, Todd Labranche.

Not awesome: Rock offense against Colorado, New England’s drop from first to last, ignorant fans who hate goalies, and Graeme’s cold-medicated brain which stopped working for a while.
