Scratcher retires from the Heathers



Via Facebook, we have learned that Scratcher in the Eye retired from the Heartless Heathers last night, bringing to a close an amazing career. Given her performance last year, it's impossible to pretend that her exit won't be somewhat of a blow to the Heathers' 2011 prospects (though knowing our Heathers, their No Heather Left Behind tradition, and their depth of talent, we're not getting all super-pouty just yet).

Fortunately for us all, Scratch will be continuing with the Wheels of Justice.

We had the pleasure of interviewing this formidable athlete a couple years back, and are enjoying revisiting that discussion and remembering her time as a Heartless Heather.

Thanks for the memories, Scratcher!

In far less earth-shattering retirement news, The Coroner has come out of retirement and is delighted to be sharing space with George and JeLLyPiG.

This is truly sad news indeed. You will be sorely missed, Scratcher. You are, without a doubt, one of the greats. I now, more than ever, look forward to seeing you skate at Regionals.

I will be wearing a black armband for the next week in your honor. Heathers Por Vida!

On a brighter note, I want to say welcome back Coroner! You presence is going to make the 2011 season that much more awesome!!!
