Disruptive behavior, leave it home. NEW YEARS DAY MATCH ANNOUNCED. BRING A FRIEND. GAME START TIME CRITICAL.

Take some time off for mental health!
Feisty, testy behavior from a few results in early dismissal of game.
ANYONE WHO CANNOT CONTROL TEMPER FOR A WEEKLY, "FRIENDLY" PICK UP GAME NEEDS TO REEVALUATE.
THERE WILL CERTAINLY BE A WINNER AND "LOSING TEAM" EACH WEEK. AND, CRITICAL REMARKS OF OTHERS DURING A GAME SERVES NO PURPOSE.
AND, THOSE WHO HAVE AN AGENDA ABOUT WHO THEY WILL PASS TO AND WHO THEY WILL NOT, DEMOLISH THE ESSENCE OF THE TEAM GAME. GET A LIFE OR CHOOSE ANOTHER SPORT.
Mature players are sources of calm and fairness no matter what the score. In our game, we have 3-4 players who embarass themselves week by week with loud divisive behavior. And we know who they are. The 20 or so cooperating others try to enjoy the match despite such shenanigans.
Nice goals from marco (2), dmitri (3), andy (1), and robert (1).
Nice defense from igor, nuri, bruce, joe and robin. Good to see Yusef out for a run. Excellent hustle from Luciano for first two third of game.
Thanks to all who kept their tempers in check. Congrats to Jamil's Blues: igor, marco, nuri, bruce, dmitri, luciano, lawrence, andy, yusef, joe and tony. Final score 6-3.
What a glorious day! Weather perfect, pitch nearly so. Where are you Brian and Steve. Take care.

NEW YEARS DAY MATCH ANNOUNCED. THURSDAY JAN. 1. BE ON TIME BRING A FRIEND.

Yellow card to Romy (profanity) and Red Card to Nasser.

Listen to Dmitri's comments on the source of his goal scoring prowess.

first half /second half cruel fate


every player has at least two sides. this man scored two brilliant goals in first half only to be abused by fate (strained knee) and woefull keeper skills in the second half. his attitude and demeanor though are --- priceless. listen to his comments.

yellow cards to jason (profanity) and kelly's brother (profanity) and of course luciano (take your pick) could not tarnish the fabulous weather and excellent pitch conditions and the match's outcome. congrats to winners: captain kelly (2), anchor igor, yuki?, nasser (2), ahmad, fabrizio, luciano, jamil, mike (2), and jason.
nice efforts in defeat by junior, robin, bob, joe, tony and marco-(get some sleep.)
have a great holiday and new year. brian where are you? steve and jan, condolences and take care. any inter player out there in injured reserve or too busy with whatever, cheer and good tidings to you all. ho ho ho. no thursday game.

before the deluge

nice temps and empty Pierce College sees blues rally from 4-2 deficit to finish 7-6 winners in extra time. "i like playing with these youngsters," said Georg after the match. They know what to do not like some of these O. G.'s who are just hard headed and stuck in their ways. Key factor of note? defender Yuki traded from white to blue team at half. Did he make the difference? turn the tide? hard to say. whites did seem to have enough fire power but they probably didn't leave enough defenders back. nice goals in second period to lockwood and dmitri but an autogoal, two corey goals and two julio goals proved too much. congrats to blues: georg, oscar, junior, jaime, mo, richard, karl, robin, tony, vic, and corey + subs. and then there was luciano. contributing a bit of everything. 1 goal. baffling keeper play, a handball, a yellow card and sending off for profanity, and assorted grunts and unrecognizable other words. young junior to go on vacation. bob plans serious talk with corey re scoring against papa. several players will attempt rehab and we all await days of rain. have a good shopping season.

Ouch!


Michael Ballack has a spot of target practice, trying out his new Predator boots. He takes aim at a hoop, which is held up by a trainer at Chelsea’s Cobham training ground. However, instead of getting the ball through the hoop, he smacks it right into the trainer’s family jewels - which is precisely where he was aiming it. The trainer is adidas client Mark Whitehead, who, unsuspectingly ends up taking one for the team. You’ve got balls Mark (in certain respects).

hail the youngsters!

outstanding contribution by youngsters leads to faster more technical match. marco, ahmad, junior, adam, oscar, cory push viejos to better play. oscar caps scoring with brilliant blast from left side to upper right corner of net. final 4-3 in stoppage time. other scorers for white came from victor (2), and jason. nasser, junior and ahmad score for kelly's blues. nice job in nets by fabrizio and bob. solid play from defenders on both sides tho they should be rewarded with a no sub clause in their contract. refusniks and strikers will be watched to the goal of moving them back on defense and goalie after one half of offensive "glory" you know who you are! EVERYONE SHOULD HAVE THE OPPORTUNITY TO PLAY DEFENSE AND KEEPER during a game. and... there is no rule or law in the handbook that the team that yells the loudest or harasses their own players the most will win the game. quite the contrary. ta ta for now.
