HOCKEY fanatic Tim Robbins can dish it out on the ice, but he apparently can't take it. Our sources say he bullies management at Chelsea Piers into getting opposing players suspended if they get too rough with him in the hockey rink.

Great comments by everyone on the thread (especially the one about making him wear a skirt). One thing that is totally bizarre is the idea that Miss Robbins has Mr. Black banned for 3 months, and then when Mr. Black is reinstated, he has to wear a white shirt and play on Miss Robbins' team??? A lot of this stuff is pretty standard fare around rinks, i.e. concussions, slashing, suspensions etc. etc., but I have never heard of "I'm scared of you - you have to wear a white shirt and play on my team" before.

Also, it's pretty hard (not impossible but pretty hard) to get a concussion if you're wearing a helmet. Did Miss Robbins not come to the rink properly equipped? Hmmmm?

It sounds as if Miss Robbins is trying to engage in a little good ol' fashioned blacklisting.

That reminds me, didn't Jack give up the cow, for the magic beans, because she had dried up?

During a pickup game a few months ago, the 6-foot-5 inch actor, who is Susan Sarandon's long-time live-in, allegedly ran into a smaller opposing player, fine arts dealer Michael Black. The impact sent Robbins to the ice with a concussion.

I can't believe someone in the mainstream media covered this story!

I used to play hockey with a guy who also played in a very good amateur league at Chelsea Piers in New York. He once told me that whenever his team played Tim Robbins' team, his assignment was to follow Robbins all over the ice and make rude comments about Susan Sarandon in an attempt to goad Robbins into taking penalties.

He said that Robbins was a very good player, but he was despised by opposing teams because he played a pretty rough game while wearing a full face shield (this is a major violation of hockey etiquette).

The stories this guy (who was the best hockey player I've ever played with, BTW -- he was declared ineligible for our team because he was invited to camp with the Toronto Maple Leafs one year) used to tell us were priceless . . .

[Players line up for faceoff]

Friend: "Hey, Timmy . . . How's things goin' . . . Why don'tcha take that shield off and play like a man, ya p#ssy?"

Tim: "F#ck you, little man!"

[Puck drops, and opposing center pulls it back to one of his defensemen . . . Robbins curls back toward his own defensive zone, then heads up ice looking for a pass . . . my "pest" friend skates two inches away from him the whole time]

Friend: "Don't call me little man, Timmy . . . Susan don't think so . . . Ya better get dressed quickly and get home after the game, or else I'm gonna get there first . . . I think Susan don't like ya much, Timmy."

[Robbins and my "pest" friend begin pushing and shoving lightly as the play moves up the ice. The referee notices and yells at them to "knock it off and play on!"]

"Hey, Timmy . . . You can tell me -- She's got a great body but her face really is ugly, ain't it?"

[Both players stop skating and Robbins lets loose with a stream of curses]

"Timmy boy . . . Don't worry about it . . . I've figured out how to deal with it -- put TWO bags over her head instead of one!"

Robbins: "You little #&*@#*!!!!!"

[WHISTLE BLOWS!!!]

Referee: "Get over here, Robbins! . . ."

[Referee skates over to the penalty box, with Robbins trailing slowly behind]

Referee to official scorer: "I've got #10 on white -- two minutes for high-sticking!"

LOL!!!!

Mr. Robbins' other half and brood. The girl in the pic is not the offspring of Mr. Robbins, however, I believe the boys are.

Mr. Robbins is a punk ass and should take up badmitten.

So close that time. I almost thought it WAS our world.

(Sigh)

I'll get right to work on a new set of calculations.

That's pretty good trash talking.I once a whole slew of profanity between Bobby Clarke and Borje Salming at the old Maple Leaf Gardens...and I was 10 rows up from the ice.The things the matrons in minks hear sitting behind the players benches is enough to curl hair ;-)

I thought he was a Vancouver Canucks fan, and Susan Sarandon is a Rangers fan. Didn't I see them in the stands wearing opposing jerseys during the 1994 Stanley Cup finals?

I have a good Upper West Side liberal friend who is a season ticket holder and he sees both the Sarandons at at the games.They both support the Rangers.
