Sine Mi Deeps 8 - Bethlehem Steel FC 6
We were owned the first half by a bunch of nineteen and twenty year olds. No suprise really. I felt totally worn out within about five minutes. At one point, we were down 8-0. This meant that Mary, sort of our Don Garber, had to remind us that the mercy rule would come into effect. Luckily, we scored two goals just before the half time buzzer.
The other guys got really cocky. This led to one of our guys putting a bit of, um, we'll call it pressure, on one of their forwards. He let his objections be known. Our man was English, so it sounded particularly threatening and apropos when he said, "If you are going to show off, you are going to have to learn to stand up..." This led to a rebuke from the referee.
Sine Mi Deeps continued to play cocky the second half, but our defense was better organized and our 'keeper was a friggin' brick wall. They started making weird shots from too far out that often would go wide. We also did a much better job of pressuring their defenders and goalkeeper when they had possession. They failed to score a single goal in the second half, and we almost came back. We just ran out of time.
The English guy that played the role of "hard man" for us was wearing a Leeds United jersey. We all wear different jerseys, I wear a New England jersey, one guy wears his old AYSO jersey. I offered to get T-shirts printed, but I think they like the motley assortment. They are all white jerseys though.
The referee may have been worried to hear an English guy wearing a Leeds United jersey making veiled threats. It reminds one too much of Vinnie Jones.
Which gives me an excuse to put up this picture of Jones with his rather, uh, creative way to put pressure on Paul Gascoigne. The skill on the part of Jones was that he managed to do this out of view of the referees. Those of you that don't know the game: don't feel sorry for Gascoigne, he was known for vicious slide tackles that would break arms.Think about that...he would break a guy's arm by, theoretically anyway, going for the ball.
Jones, by the way, will be playing Juggernaut in the next X-Men movie.
Hasta la proxima. Do zobaczenia.

Dude, it's like how the Surly Wenches start every season: get ass whupped, gradually pull shit together, then kick ass at the end. All should fear the mighty B.Steel!
The scary part of this is that I posted this at midnight last night...and I wake up to two reponses.
Ted, I work at night so of course I post after you have been tucked into bed by one of your adoring fans.
