soccer: June 2008 Archives

On Monday Timber dropped me off at work so I could ride my bike home because her car was in the shop.  As the afternoon wore on I was feeling the urge to ride more than just the 5 miles home that I was slated to do after work.  So when the work day was over I went for a 20 mile loop near work, and then after that loop I rode the 5 miles home.  Later in the evening I had a soccer game with my co-ed team.  My team won that game 2-1 when the other team scored on themselves with about 30 seconds to go.  After the game I found out that we were actually playing in the playoffs, and since we won we had to hand around and play the winner of the game right after ours.  then I started to wonder why the other team scored on themselves.  :-)  I was not too happy about that since we were really low on subs, and I didn't know how we would handle playing another game with basically no subs.  So we hung out and watched the game and then we played the winning team.  We ended up winning that game, which apparently was the championship game, 3-1.  And as a result each person on my team gets a t-shirt.  So at least we ended up getting something for hanging out and playing an extra game.
