Monday Morning Report: Nov 16

February seems like a long time ago, but AC D.C. started defense of our Feb '09 indoor title this past Saturday. We faced a familiar opponent in Little Urban Achievers. Our usual tardiness reared its ugly head again and we started the game with 4 women (we need at least two of each gender) and 2 men. Captain George and I defended while our ladies dominated their much more physical men. We won the game comfortably 5-2. I have to single out George for this game, cuz he was outstanding in goal. Guess that's why he's wearing the armband for indoors.

Sunday was a bit of a let-down. Our co-ed squad seems to be in a funk right now, with yet another 1-0 loss. We were flat and looked tired. Not much to add to that, except to mention a policy issue. If you are invited to play any game, that means we want you to play. If you cannot, please tell us. It's very simple. That way, we can move on to pull others onto the roster. If you don't reply, we have to assume that you haven't seen the roster request. And so we wait and we wait. If you end up declining, or not showing up, we'll have very little chance to ask others to play.

To end the report in a funnier note, watch the video here. This was posted to facebook by Eleonor. It reminded both of us of Jeff Cruz....to a tee. If you ever wonder why I pull out my hair dealing with the man.....

Have a jolly week, everyone
