they checked ours Saturday...

3/24/2010 7:59:45 PM

^Yeh, but the one guy who had just joined my team had left his at home. They let him play since he was on roster and showed them his ID.

3/24/2010 8:17:21 PM

soc33com and I got the W tonight. Perfect night to play.

seriously i did not know girls could play that well.

3/24/2010 9:50:15 PM

oh man there's tons of great female players in the area. seriously don't sell them short.

3/25/2010 9:03:52 AM

^Yeh, some of the girls I went to high school with were pretty good.

3/25/2010 12:06:20 PM

Yeah, I heard that Mia Hamm's pretty good.

3/25/2010 3:05:50 PM

It will be a little cold tomorrow.

3/26/2010 2:00:46 PM

So did anyone ever find out if someone who plays for Hibernian FC left their air pump at the game last Saturday? I guess it could have been from the 50+ game that came before us too.

3/26/2010 2:11:36 PM

Hey I left a Nike ball a few weeks ago, have you seen it anywhere?

3/26/2010 11:36:23 PM

^LOL! I'm getting quite the collection. I could have had 1 Nike socer sock too last weekend.

3/27/2010 12:09:04 AM

a guy on our team lost a Nike ball at the game last week. he was a little upset because it was an $80 ball. i think it had yellow or gold on it, i'm not sure of the exact description. but if anyone you know picked it up by mistake, he really would like to have it back.

3/27/2010 12:26:47 AM

That's why I always buy the cheap ass balls.

Oh wait. If you're not joking then Eric probably does have it. He's been asking people for like three weeks that's why I made the joke.

Looks like you guys get to play on Centex tomorrow. Enjoy it--I like the artificial surface, though it gets really slick when wet.

3/27/2010 12:42:46 AM

I got a pair of turf shoes, but I believe it's FieldTurf. From my experience on it you might as well just wear normal cleats. Your thoughts?

3/27/2010 12:46:59 AM

Never tried turf shoes, but I have slipped a bunch of times out there while wearing cleats (dry and wet). I guess, if I had the option, I would take both and just test my footing with each.

3/27/2010 1:09:18 AM

I always wear turf shoes on the WRAL fields. I haven't worn regular cleats on there, so I can't compare, but I've never had a problem with the turf shoes.

3/27/2010 9:24:02 AM

i've worn both on WRAL. if the field is dry turf shoes is ideal. if its kinda wet you're better off wearing regular cleats. i don't know why that is, it just is.

3/27/2010 12:47:20 PM

Nice 3rd goal Hibernian on the diving header.

3/27/2010 4:00:39 PM

the diving own goal header.


I had to pat that guy on the back, I felt bad for him.

3/27/2010 4:39:34 PM

at least he was laughing about it after the game.

2 game winning streak for Hibernian FC!

3/27/2010 5:11:40 PM

^Yeh it didn't matter in the end since you guys would have won 2-1 anyway without that happening. Hopefully my team can beat them in 2 weeks, or we may not win a game all season. We got shelled 9-1 today, but Fullvaso is the best team in the league and we have some weak links on roster.

3/27/2010 7:02:03 PM

We got Fullvasoed today. Flat out fullvasoed.

3/27/2010 10:57:30 PM

^Don't worry. They are going to win the league and then they will be in B division next year. We only have one game vs them.

btw, what number scored the only goal for Newcastle today?

3/28/2010 12:02:48 AM

i don't remember.

3/28/2010 12:06:42 AM

me either.



The thing is, Fullvaso will go up (if they dont go back to La Liga), but that brasilian team full of assholes will drop down because they're getting shelled in every game in the B league so far this season.

3/28/2010 1:25:17 AM

^I was looking down and didn't see it. Oh well, it looked as though to beat them you need to attack down the right wing and go at #13 when he is on the field and stop #7 and #9. They looked to be the best talents.

3/28/2010 1:26:55 AM

Yeah, Newcastle seem weak on both wings, actually.

3/28/2010 1:42:53 AM

3/28/2010 1:19:48 PM

^Is that a picture of you from the game vs my team?

3/28/2010 1:43:26 PM

Yes.

3/28/2010 2:30:19 PM

where do you guys play...field looks horrible

3/28/2010 2:39:38 PM

that's Preston, and yes, the pitch is absolutely terrible.

[Edited on March 28, 2010 at 2:49 PM. Reason : we had a guy tear his ACL on that pitch last season, due to the pitch alone]

3/28/2010 2:49:18 PM

i made it through an entire season on a weak ankle only to hurt myself in the last game of the season by stepping in a giant hole on that field. what a piece of shit.

3/28/2010 2:54:28 PM

^Yeh it sucks, but not much can be done about it. If they reseed then people will still play on it 24/7. You can't stop people from walking on a public grass field.

3/28/2010 2:55:15 PM

I've played on dirt fields that are better than those Preston pitches. Uneven ground everywhere you step.

3/28/2010 10:50:05 PM

Damn! The only goalkeepers listed in the player pool have been signed by other teams.

3/28/2010 10:53:10 PM

GKs get snatched up pretty quickly. Preston looks bad, but Dorothea Dix has got to be the worst place to play in the area.

3/28/2010 10:59:23 PM

^Do you know any real GKs that want to play Open C on Saturday? I'll do ok, but we could still use someone who is better than me.

[Edited on March 28, 2010 at 11:10 PM. Reason : .]

3/28/2010 11:10:36 PM

I don't, unfortunately. I assume you emailed the goalies listed on the men's pool as well as the co-ed pool.

3/29/2010 12:19:39 AM

If you need a GK let me know. I played in high school and was All-Area back in the day. The past few years I've only been doing intramurals so I am a little rusty but if you need someone let me know.

3/29/2010 12:49:46 AM

It's an important set of games next week. Depending on whether or not Sasquatch won, we'll be playing against them for a solid shot at the third place position.

And, the two first place teams, Fullvaso and Shepherd's House War, will be playing against each other. This will determine who is solidly in first place.

this

I reffed a couple times over there, those fields are so sucky

3/29/2010 10:05:50 AM

Sasquatch beat Shepherds. There's currently a "three way tie" for second place, with Sasquatch in the lead (of the 2nd place tie) only due to goal differentials. We play Sasquatch next time.

3/29/2010 1:19:25 PM

^^^Yeh but none of that will matter once my team beats you guys in May!

3/29/2010 1:31:22 PM

The only team I don't have a feel for in this league now is Sasquatch.



SHW I feel like we could beat on a good day. Fullvaso is head and shoulders the best in the division. Sasquatch is a giant question mark, especially given that they split their results with SHW and Fullvaso.

3/29/2010 7:31:56 PM

Sasquatch is made up of that indoor team that walked us. TBD, remember them?

3/29/2010 8:00:26 PM

Yeah, but I don't know how they'll do against us (or us against them) in outdoor.

3/29/2010 10:52:11 PM

Yo E, so are we playing on Saturday or what?

4/1/2010 6:11:55 PM

there are no TASL games this weekend if that's what you are referring to.
