the pink 1s?? nah i doubt ur gonna find those.. they r custom made for the pro players and only are made for the people on the team.. unless your from mission or have a hook up.. doubt ur gonna find something like that on ebay lol.. if so have fun looking for a while

probably right.....probably made it specifically to go with the stick for the photo op.

those are the Mission Pro jerseys from the '05 NARCh Finals..Tommy Neer is pimp though...crazy good..probably #2 behind Thompson on the current crop of "roller only" players

very true.. tommy and greg are great to watch.. havent seen tommy play as much since im on the island.. but seeing thompson playing is great. Hes always a great guy also.

[Jim A 4]

Yep..Greg is a great player and a good kid who will add a 3rd NCRHA MVP award to his mantle this april

I get to play against Greg this weekend in the St. Louis Tour Christmas Cup...oh joy! :P Helluva player but I like him on my team rather than as an opponent.

Ya saw tommy play a bunch of times on the san diego sharks, in the elite league up at the gretzky center.....while I was in the states for 3 months in '04. Some guy slashed him right across the stomach and broke his stick off him.

greg is just amazing but youhave to watch out for ryan marchand from lindenwood also a very solid player

[Jim A 4]

All the Marchand's are sick, I remember seeing Brandon play in a NARCh All Star game back in 98 or 99 in Atlanta...its because of kids like Greg, Tommy and the like that I'm going to find a nice home in the 35+ division

Yeah I know Ryan and Brandon Marchand very well and play at the same rink as them....unfortunately will be playing against them this weekend too. Ryan is a bit slower, but he's got the size and excellent hands. Brandon (the younger) is such a speedball. I'd love to clock him skating from one endboard to the other.

Jim A: I hear you on the 35+ comment. I just started playing in the "28-and-over" league at my rink and it's highly competitive but it's nice not to play against some of these younger guys. I still play against them in other leagues....keeps me on my toes. Thankfully by the time they get older, I'll be moving on to that aformentioned 35+ league.

Projoy (www.projoy.com) makes a lot of the Mission jerseys.

You guys play out of Matteson?

[Shorthanded67 0]

Yep, the one and only Cobras! :D As a general statement though, most of the St. Charles Community College guys play/hang out at Matteson's and the Lindenwood guys hang at Omni Sportsplex (aka: A DUMP!).

lindenwoods money with thompson, tommy bruce and mikey brown

I love any rink that has wireless so I can update scores, post pics from the rink, makes life so much easier..well the bar in the back and pitchers up front...hmm..yeah..its a nice place

[Shorthanded67 0]

Actually the bar in the back is somewhat new....about a year or two old. It was a gameroom with arcade/pinball games but obviously the bar is a better choice. Hey sometimes there's pitchers in there! The best time ever was when they had a new kid working the bar and didn't know how to tap a new keg. Of course we were more than happy to assist him for a "fee".
