  1. Avatar rocks the Housley. Interesting choice of insignia for the signature, being a shoe salesmen and all, however, you probably should resize it.
  2. Welcome to the nuthouse. You can add an avatar in 'My Controls', right beneath the main nav menu - opposite to 'Log Out'.. There are some animated sprite avatars I made in the avatar base gallery too if those tickle your fancy. btw what can you show me in a 12 and 1/2?
  3. Got it? For some reason the link in my post was encapsulated with myriad <a>nchor tags. Weird. Should be good, now. Should I just use the skate boot color for the hair? And should the goalies all have white masks, or none at all? Would like to hear some opinions.
  4. Congrats to EA, the reigning classic, AND, Draft League champion, what a season! Can't forget Evan and Jacob; the straw that stirs the drink. You guys are the best. Thanks for making this place the #1 retro gaming site.
  5. I'm keeping my end of the bargain, brother. And how many hat's can one guy wear? I get visions of a fire fighter / hockey player with a Wacom stylus in one hand and a hockey stick n the other.
  6. It's a few months late but I wanted to add one more clip to the video section on the site before I finish it.. Tried to disguise the obvious lack of editing here with some classic Sam Spence.
  7. We're going to have to get an AARP league with some Flomax and Enzyte divisions going on for the fuddy duddy's here.
  8. The whole point of this isn't to quarantine coaches into a flunky type of league. As I said previously; It's to (try and) prevent coaches who commit acts of infidelity by quiting and reappearing when it's most convenient for them. Case in point: SSIG resigned in three leagues; the GDL, Michaels OSL, and Halifax's Juiced League..While they were all in progress. Being the impartial pillar of equality that I am, it's only right his name is inscribed here, regardless of his prior reputation. Hope I'm not coming off all "holier than thou". This is meant to keep this kind of stuff from metastasizing. It may seem innocuous to some but it weakens the integrity of the leagues, and we will be seeing some of the repercussions soon if not already. EDIT: If guys no longer wish to play because it's not fun losing, or too time consuming thats fine. Like the Isley Bros say: It's your thing, do what you want to do..But please finish your games out of respect before you take off.
  9. 1. Best Overall Coach - kgman 2. Best Sportsmanship Coach - Evan 3. Best Manual Goalie Coach - kgman 4. Most Creative Coach - Evan 5. Most Improved Coach - XdeathsbloodX 6. Coach Who Stuck It Out Through The Hard Times - Jacob
  10. While these types of awards are great - this is one of the reasons why I am opposed to league awards that are not stat based..Coupled with the subjective nature of these awards, it's also unlikely that every coach will vote..Plus reputation has to play a big factor as well. And no, players should not be allowed to vote for themselves.
  11. The primary reason the server went offline is because it was best to relocate to a different IP after I encountered some issues..There wasn't any hurry to get it online due to all of the attention the new p2p client has garnered..So I didn't think it was a big deal..And yes I'm still (did) paying for the service (quarterly). The gesture is appreciated, however, I got a good deal from a friend so it's not putting me back much.
  12. Don't be ashamed to let it go...and thats..ok. Cause I'm smart enough. I'm good enough. And doggone it, people like me.
  13. First time I've ever seen that one. I hope you don't mind me adding it to the NHL'93 screen shots page. It's at the bottom.
  14. Something has struck a nerve with me, it may struck a pose with some of the more effeminate members too - and being all lathered under the influence of that potent elixir, truth, and a family size bag of sour patch kids, makes it that much harder to conceal. What might that be? It might be nerve damage, but it's not. It's the defacing of the facade that protects this great garrison of vegetate'n. And who are these reverse philanthropists? They are the whole grain flakes that sabotage the integrity of this, and other leagues, by not honoring their commitment to play the games they have signed up for by pulling a Bobby Petrino and then magically (by magically I mean cowardly) reappearing in door number 2 (by door number 2 I mean another league) in the not-too distant future. In this virtual world of the internet where everyone drives a Ferrari is well endowed and super rich, it's no surprise that some people aren't able to fulfill these commitments, some even deal the, "I have obligations" card. Yeah, it's all good for these members who can just reemerge in another league when it's most convenient. But it's not-so-all-good, in fact all bad. Like Sir Fig Newton said, "A cookie is just a cookie, but a Newton is fruit and cake." and "What comes up, must come down." Well it must come down - HARD for these offenders. So what is the plan of action? Do we simply excommunicate these members? Sounds like a great idea! But it's just not practical. We could have hazing for new members to prevent this type of conduct in the future, but this doesn't address the immediate issue, and some members with a high pain threshold and a low propensity for playing their games could sneak in. An easy way to keep a thumb on these derelicts would be to create a black list. I know it sounds harsh, just think of it as ear tagging, in the same way that the Wildlife Society does. Now, I'm not one for naming names, but we need to get the ball and chain rolling. To protect the innocent I will encrypt the first members name to be black listed. B E S U W R E T O D R I N K A Y O U R G O V A L T I N E S In review, the proposal unfolds as following: Firstly: Humanely blacklist those who violate league ordinances by going absent with out league from entering other leagues with their names unblemished. Secondly: see fithly Thirdly: can you dig? Fourthly: up onely Fithly: see Fourthly
  15. Don't forget with the advent of newer equipment any fear that was involved in making a save has dissipated. There are so few apertures in these human air bags that you seldom if ever hear about a injury being inflicted from a shot..Not to diminish the accomplishments of modern backstops but todays goalies are impervious to just about anything that hits them, with the older equipment many shots really hurt, I don't think todays goalies would be half as tall in net with equipment from the old school. And yes, there are entirely too many teams in the league, agreed. I've taken my lumps in the past for saying this, mostly from small market faithful. It may be a sharp pill to swallow hearing that your team is going out to pasture but revenue could help the NHL become a *major sport in the US once again. Not sure how bigger ice would remedy the real problem, the NHL is losing fans every year in the US..Here's a novel idea, get a contract with a REAL network (maybe that four letter one) that people actually watch - voluntarily.

    New 2on2 Video

    The video is comprised of highlights from an older video, there aren't many highlights from the season 3 rom. Great job though BC, added it to the video section.
  17. A Ron Barr battery operated toof brush, and a gf that doesn't burn cookies cause she's verbosely loquacious with anything that rings! Merry X-Mas
  18. The NHL '91 league is gearing up to launch. At the completion of 2on2.org the '91 site will undergo a renovation exorcism then begin it's inaugural campaign..Guys who would like to play should become familiar with the lineups and gameplay before I set up a registration form..Team selections will be determined by way of random draw. If anyone feels there should be some slight alterations to the player ratings I will take them into consideration for league play.
  19. What's the status on NHL'08, Macker?
  20. Come on now..HABS your such a fatalist, thought I explained how busy life is right now..I've been getting things done behind the scenes for the site, I've been working on my NHL'91 site aswell and I have a new address for an upgraded NHL '94 server I just haven't had time to set it up..After the holdiays are over I should have more free time. Hang in there guys.
  21. Come on babyyy do the Twisttt.. It's not that Tony's slow, he skates so fast it deceives the eye..Like a helicopter propeller. Much like Grandpa Twist -
  22. Roenicks extinguish Flamers in 7 - Worldwide shortage of paper due to Jamaica's Bob Marley festival depletes Roenick Times paper press. It took all 7 games in this white knuckle rendezvous to decide a winner, when the dust settled the Roenicks were the survivors. Things looked promising when the Flamers forced game seven at Saddle but the Roenicks erupted with 9 goals and advance to meet K-GBman's Pens in the 2nd round Box Scores The frenetic pace of the series forced me to shelve my West Coast pass first style of offense for a gritty crash and bang ballroom brawl. Having that 164 lb gapped tooth wrecking ball at center gave me fits and I also met the master of the breakout pass, you killed me on breakaways the whole series. ggs Jamonica, you got nothing to be ashamed of losing to the games best team.
  23. I play it with guys from here sometimes.. Little known fact about Ice Hockey - if the games tied after regulation there's a shoot out, try it.
