[Offintheshower] Practice Time

Thu Oct 27 13:02:20 CST 2005

Apparently, the Meglomaniacs (the team that went to Nationals) take this
very seriously too. I have a buddy who played Rams who refused to play with
them because they were just way too intense. I have a feeling it could get
worse from here and I am beginning to think our goal should be to just win
one game!

Yeah, those guys were being losers, although I will admit I
semi-intentionally took two of them down going for a pick after getting
annoyed with their cockiness.  However, I also got the tar beaten out of me
coming down with that ball on the left sideline.  I felt like I was getting
slapped by 5 angry grandmas at once... athough you didn't see me complain.  

The one time I ran in and give a guy a 2-hand touch, they freaked out like
he just got tackled by Julius Peppers.  I guess I tagged the guy a little
roughly, but I don't think I really lit the guy up or anything... is that
really not allowed?  

Anyway... I just hope the rest of the teams out there are more interested in
a good game rather than proving the fact that their team is not quite as
washed up as ours.
