Coach's Corner
There's an aura about MIKE WENZ, and though it could be his bruising forechecking style, it's more likely the strange body odor that eminates from the defensive forward. A consistent threat to capture the Robert Crown penalty minute crown every year, Wenz prefers a hit first, ask questions later approach, an approach which his teammates respect and often leads to women throwing lingerie on the ice as if Wenz was an athletic "Tom Jones." We can't speak from experience, but we believe Tom Jones don't smell like that. Always signs autographs at the Candlelite after home games.
Pattern Move: Cross-check on the boards when the refs aren't looking.

Player Bio
Email This Rat Bastard at: MikeWenz@yahoo.com
What part of your game needs the most work?
  Getting into the slot area on both ends of the ice. I think I do pretty well once I'm there, but I just can't seem to get there often enough. It's this balance of having to drop 20 pounds to have the speed and energy to get into position versus the extra body mass my midsection gives me to take care of business once I'm there.
If you could take one personality trait from another member of the Flock for yourself, what would it be?
  Dan's vocal skills. His falsetto backup vocals on the ice are sheer brilliance. I'd love to hit the high notes in "Dead or Alive" like Dan does.
What's is your Broomball highlight to date? low-light?
  The lowlight was the feeling of utter despair when we were down 4-0 in our Duluth opener, and the only time we had touched the ball was to take it out of the back of our net. The highlight came shortly thereafter, when we raised the roof after successfully killing off our man advantage. This ushered in a new attitude--dare I say, a new era--in Flock history.
What do your teammates say about you behind your back?
  "Nice ass."
Who's the Flock franchise MVP & Why?
  Oz. The man who brings the rhythm and the rhymes deserves a special place in the Flock Hall of Fame.
What would you like as the epitaph on your grave stone?
  RIP
Mike Wenz
May he stay out of the penalty box for eternity.
What has contributed the most to the decline of the Western Civilization: Violent Entertainment, Pop Music, Porno or the Weinberg Family?
  Violent entertainment. If it weren't for the proliferation of violent entertainment, I think the Weinberg family would be lacking for ideas.
What was Bill Murray's best role?
  Carl Spackler. Nothing else comes close.
Who is/was your favorite pro bowler? Why?
  Earl Anthony. The vivid descriptions of his brilliant performances from such broadcasting legends as Chris Schenkel and Nelson Burton Jr. on ABC's Wide World of Sports continue to form an indelible impression in my heart.
We know there ain't no party like a Chi-Town party, cause a Chi-Town party don't stop. But if there was a party like a Chi-Town party, where would it be?
  Duluth, Minneapolis, Quad Cities, and coming soon to Omaha. You can take the party out of Chi-Town, but you can't take Chi-Town out of the party.
