Well, tonight we finished up our flag football season, good times all around. While we finished with a loss in the playoffs, (Screw you, Channel 4), we probably finished with one of our better games, giving up the winning score with about 2 minutes left. We had 3 trips to the endzone in the final 8 minutes, all of which left us with 0 points, including the final one with around 18 seconds left. Oh, well, next season starts this weekend. Playing in the Pontiac Silverdome (former home of the Lions) was quite an experience. You have no idea what its like to play in front of 85,000 empty seats! The night ended with a good ol trip to the hospital, in support of one our players (Chad), who right before halftime was trying to make an awesome defensive play and ended up coliding with a bench and a wall. The offensive player ended up making one of the most amazing grabs, I've ever seen on any level, and Chad ended up trashing a bench, as well as being the recipient of 7 or 8 stitches.
I can't say the week was a total loss however with a huge taking at what has now become our weekly poker night. Well huge may not be really huge but 100 bucks on a Wednesday night ain't bad. So make sure you turn into the World Series of Poker next year, if things continue to go this well, I may be up for a spot!
Also I shouldn't have bragged about my perfect 1st night of the NCAA tournament, that same bracket now has me in the bottom tier of all ESPN brackets. Thank you very much Big Ten. Oh, well, Dukes still alive so all is well in the world.
Until next time!
