try to make this a short dodgeball update:

So, we are suuuuuuuuuuper missing our good thrower/catcher guy from last year. We are ok at throwing, but not great at catching. Or the teams we've played are really good at catching. We lost, bigly. This team had a chant before each game. I may have to modify my post from last week saying that the sign of a douche team was a boombox. I'm adding team chant to that list.

So this season may be kinda sucky. Twoballs didn't show up, sorry to disappoint with no stories there. Actually, a lot of people didn't show. The guys had to play the whole game and we had four girls so we swapped each game. Oh I did probably get hit in the foot once but I heard no whistle and couldn't be sure it didn't bounce off the floor so I kept playing. It was the 2nd to last game and were were down like 6-1 at that point. I'm a cheating badass.

Before we played, their team was talking in the hallway about baseball and the one girl was like "oh I hate the Cubs. Just hate them." She went on for a bit about that. IDK that seemed bizarre. I could understand not caring for them or whatever, but hate? Don't you usually hate a team for being a threat or IDK, good? Maybe this girl was a reborn Edwardian woman and she remembers the good old days of the 1900's.
 
I will tag along with CG and do a flag football update. Last night we had the championship of the B league. The other team we had beat once and the second time they forfeited due to not having enough players. Of course last night they show up with more than enough which included several players from other teams. Didn't know it at the time but we could have asked for a roster check to get them kicked out. Probably could have won if we did that. They went up 27-0 at half. We started the second half with three straight TDs but allowed them one. We got another TD with 2 minutes left but they were pretty much able to just run it out from there.

If we can keep this team together and add on to it next year it should go much better.

Sounds like a fun time if there is girl swapping.


Btw, bigly??? I've heard someone use that word before, hmmmmmm? ;)
 
I also forgot about after our third TD they all started fighting over what coverages they were in on defense. That made me laugh.
 
Ours schools K-6 are going to the WBB game today. I decided to go with the 3yr old. We are going to try and sit in the Courtside seats we have. If you see random stuffed animals thrown on the court, those may or may not be ours (she packed her own backpack, full of stuffed animals).

On an aside, my sister wants to get her hubby the new Nintendo classic for Christmas. They happen to be in DC right now so can't go try and get one. She sent my dad to Target for one--they had received 4. Don't think she is going to find one regular retail price.

Next time you play them, be sure to yell "Omaha, Omaha" and have your wide receivers switch positions before the snap.
