By Bill Merritt #15

April 1, 2011

a moment to pause....

A good season?

The year began with two veterans Paul and myself both going under the knife. Paul with knee surgery and me with major shoulder surgery.   I was not sure if and when I would play again. I made it back in 4 months. Paul missed nearly half a season as well. WOW!

In Nov Rich and Jen finally had the babies they wanted so much!!!

We all almost all learned to use email and respond with yes and no regarding who could make each game!!!!   WOW!!!    THANKS GUYS!!!!

We paid our $8,000.00 Bill!!!!      WOW! THANKS AGAIN GUYS!!!!

We played in St. Patty’s again. THANKS FOR EVERYBODY’s UNDERSTANDING (those of you not included! Sorry! But appreciated).    5 years in a row now for me!!!

We are going to Montreal! For me, 14 out of the last 15 years!     WOOOOOW!!!!!!

The Budmen roster grow with great young new Budmen!   Welcome!   Wow!!!!

And we won. The B2 championship!!!!

No, A GREAT SEASON!

THANKS EVERONE!

Please note: several stats are listed incorrectly. Jersey numbers seem to be the culprit with the wrong stats, but I am sure that the league will correct this problem in the future. But keep checking back to see your team and favorite players are doing or have done!

When the Budmen played the Chiefs on November 8th, 2009, we noticed a photographer in the stands. We thought it may have been a guy hired by the Chiefs to take pictures. We checked out their web-site and it has not been updated in a year or so, so we just dismissed the chance of seeing the pictures....

....Until Rich Styzer just happened to be looking through the Westchester Health & Life Magazine (The Good Living Magazine from Westchester Medical Center) and noticed Billy Merritt on a full page picture with the Chiefs goalie and their defensemen.
