Bouchard chasing another record

This poetic prose is from the poised, prolific and prosaic penmanship of Muskegon's Terry Ficorelli who is always pressed, persuasive, punctual and pleasant:

What was once thought to be score 36 or more goals for Robin Bouchard to become the all-time greatest goal-scoring colossus ever in the history of minor professional hockey has been researched and revised with the findings hatching a rather interesting and intriguing result.

Upon further review, the official bible books, savants and certified hockey mavens have discovered that the 18-goals which "Rockin' Robin" fired during his 2006-07 season playing for the Bolzano HC team in Italy cannot and will not be included in his overall career minor pro hockey statistical profile.

Thus, though he has scored a grand total of 647-goals in his majestic career, "The Gun-Sling King" is officially credited with 629-goals expressly for the purposes of the all-time minor pro hockey record.

Through this development, the Lumberjacks incomparable #32 officially stands 54-goals from the exclusive promised land and the top of the goal-scoring pinnacle.

Currently in his 16th pro season and his 13th in Muskegon, Bouchard is coming off an electrifying 2-goals and 3-points performance last Saturday night on opening night at Walker Arena where he and the

Cannonaded?! Is that a Ficorreli-ism for "cried like a little girl"? And "Bouch Almighty"...OK, I do not want a blog foul, so I will leave that one alone....

And chuckitt, I say give me HitSomebody's version anyday...that's classic! You do Ficorelli way better than he does. It makes my head hurt less, and my sides hurt more. :)

Listen to Fic one time during a Muskegon game either on a B2 broadcast against the Komets, or any of the webcasts of FuryJack games....and you will get a taste real quick.....he knows his hockey, he is like a Dick Vitale of this business, he is excitable, he actually is fun to listen to, but you will get both sick and happy at the sametime. It is a wierd feeling. That guy will talk the game to death......Yabba Dabba Doo....Rockin Robin scores the goal!!!!! That was a tame version of him.

Can't say I've ever listened to Ficorelli during a broadcast, but I can say that I can't read the garbage that he writes. Even if he does know his hockey, his writing is far too redundant and verbose to bear. Seems like a pompous ass. Muskegon s/h told him to change or gotten rid of him long ago.
