double header...
vs 'blue', 13-4?
then vs 'white.'
13-3?
as is usual, games start on 'ultimate time', although, my team is there on time... then there is some kind of cap for the game... then an untimely break while the other team huddles... at some point (5-0) i asked for an 8:45 cap... agreed, then after a couple exchanges led to 7-2, the opponents smelled victory... and a few minutes later, we were chastised for 'taking too long.' i don't know if it was 90 seconds but it was quick.
this led to a change of strategy. 'jog back orange', let's play. some presumably good natured heckling by the white team only pissed off the kids... i told them that this was a sign that we were in their heads, and don't let that change. (the kids just generally run around, and never say anything to the opponents...)
needless to say, the kids started making blocks all over the field.
hamstring getting better, still not ripping around the field, but running at least... and played probably 15 or 16 points... been 6 weeks now, w/ 1.5 weeks to tournament... a one day, 4 games to win deal...
more to follow.
3 year record in bend city league.... 36-1, 2 trophies...
the stress is palpable

bag your trash ben benson.
i don't think switzer reads this crap.
ps. you'd be better to say, 'after the tournament, add 1 to the l column' if you want to talk smack
trash bagged.
i actually think you'll beat us.
oh no. it's already on the locker room wall...i know that you and the league are 'out to get us.' and that you, and the league are 'disrespecting us.'
no one gives us any respect. we're always the underdogs.
you get the idea
Whatever dude, I'll never be disrespectin'.
I mean, I'm out to win.
But not disrespecting.
No sirreeee.
now, there you go again... i know, you hate us for our freedoms and our way of life... the commie's hatred of the american way of life never ceases to amaze... what did we do to deserve this attack... we just want to bring democracy... just like we did in the US, Europe, Vietnam, Soviet Bloc, Central America, Mid East... we... just... want... to... help...
