Rinning!

[xx - Team GAP]

gordie is sad

[The Sandmen]

Due to disappointment because Jennifer is A GOD DAMNED DISAPPOINTMENT! But at least he isn't out there obstructing justice like OTHER PEOPLE I KNOW.

[xx - Team GAP]

maybe gordie should teach her to sharpen her elbows.

[The Sandmen]

Tee hee hee. So true.

[xx - Team GAP]

maybe put a puck in your opponents hand. Cause nobody touches gordies puck! unless of course gordie allows you.

[xx - Former Phoenix Fight Club]

Poor Howe.

[xx - Team GAP]

or maybe howe could tie hockey pucks to her fists and then knock her opponents the puck out

[xx - Former Phoenix Fight Club]

The gloves look like they could have pucks in them, so why not... lol
