Bradford blows out another one

For the Bradford Rattlers times are easy going, but for the teams playing Bradford it’s as bad as a trip to boresville. Bradford time and time again put a beating down on the weaker teams without letting up. Always taught that after going up on a team by six or seven goals and the win is in the bag the respectful thing to do is let up and just play around, well the Bradford Rattlers do not seem to get that concept defeating teams such as Nipissing, Douro, and Tamworth by fifteen goals. Tonight wasn’t much different as they slaughtered the Nipissing Alouettes 14-1. Now a score like that wouldn’t be a bad thing if everyone just played hockey, but in this case it is what we at the GMHL Fan site like to call “a shit show”. The Bradford Rattlers kept on scoring and the Alouettes got madder taking several stupid penalties and misconducts. Some fans were saying that this game was the worst game they have ever seen in Bradford [GMHL Message Board]. I must say tho that not all the fault is on Bradford as Nipissing’s actions were not justified, but does a team really need to go up on a team fifteen to nothing. I understand it may be for university stats, but when a scout looks at your stats he also looks at the score of the games you played in. If a player gets five goals in a game that your team wins 15-0 the scout is not going to think much of it. Also to add if most of the players have stats well above the rest of the league, don’t you think that the scout might think something is up? Exspecially if you are winning 15-0.

Also in the game tonight Nipissing Alouettes player Jesse Pedneault was giving a ten minute misconduct for yelling at the ref. Once in the penalty box Jesse started to verbally sexually assault the female timekeeper to the point where she was about to report it to the police!
