Puck's Weekend Forecast, 2011 |
||
|
|
Tom "Hockey Puck/Nutman" McKenna has worked as a
statman with Ted since 1977. He swore in mid-2003 that he could pick games better than
Huck, so the challenge was on! (He finally backed up his boasting in
'05, '06, '07 and yet again in '08! -- But not in '09/'10.) |
