Rip Finally Deserves the Name

[Thunder 1,166]

Ever since he joined the VHL, he was deserving of the name of Jimmy Hurdstrom, and had no business making a mockery of the name Rip Wheeler.  @ScottyP has changed all that this season and is now worthy of the name Rip Wheeler. Now, his scoring numbers may not be the greatest, but he is improving and this season he will definitely have some somewhat impressive numbers in that department.  It’s not the increased scoring that makes him worthy of bearing a name such as Rip Wheeler, its his hitting.

 

For whatever reason, Rip Wheeler decided to actually make contacts with opponents this season and is currently tied for the most hits in the VHL.  Rip continues to impress, as he actually earned enough TPE so that @Scurvy could get his recruitment bonus.  Scurvy may not appreciate Rip’s lackluster dedication to the league, but there has definitely been some recent improvement.

 

There could only be one thing that would bring this season to an epic status as far as it involves Rip Wheeler.  That would be if Rip were to fight with Brian Payne or Jake Thunder.  There has to be some bragging rights to go along with Rip’s success.  Drinking excessive amounts of whiskey is not one of them.  All I can say is Rip better take a picture of his face before the fights because when the fight is over, his face will never look the same, but you get to keep your name.
