The Dominican Daddy




Who is the Dominican Daddy? You might think of the 6'4" 240 lb David Ortiz.


He is a Dominican Daddy for sure. Great with the stick but more consistant with a glove. The Dominican Daddy I am talking about is close to 30 years old, is 5'6", with no hair, a bad shoulder, and a slightly different sense of humor. He protects the pipes with his $10 goalie stick and his lightening fast short stop like glove. He plays in the rarely used but surprisingly entertaining "Dominican Style". The Dominican Style lends itself to the incredible Dominican shortstop influence such as Golden Glove winner Miguel Tejada, or Orlando Cabrerra.


The pipes he protects are home to the VJ's BBQ goon squad. The leader of the squad is a short fat kid who hates to be called short.



He is the inspiration for the Dominican Daddy. He F*C***G LOVES HOCKEY!!! His high octane offense is powered by two guys named Jeff. Young Skippy is atop the league in scores and can't be stopped. Jones is a VJ's veteran trained in the art of sharp shooting and intercepting the puck. Veteran skater, champion coach and statistics mastermind Andy stays at the top of the league in assists and scores. With him comes another power wing man. As the old man on the team John serves as a veteran player, local softball super hero, and Ale House gimmee.


In charge of keeping the puck as far from the Dominican Daddy as possible is the short fat kid. JD will do anything to keep it away from the Dominican Daddy. He skates right side up, upside down, forward, backward, and everything in between. He is heard from anywhere in the building citing the legendary Marty's "AWWW MAN! HOWD DAT GET IN NERE?!?!?" The goon we call Joanne is a ferocious protector of the blue line. She is one of the original skaters for VJ's. She is one of the most enthusiastic and reliable skaters VJ's has ever seen. A corner stone of the VJ's team. Rec. League coach and goalie extraordinaire, Leith is a notorious hockey junkie. He protects the Dominican Daddy with tenacity as he knows the Dominican style well and may not trust it...

So that is the VJS squad. The Dominican Daddy, his $10 stick, a golden glove, and a team of goons are all that we need to have a good time.
