September 09, 2002 

Against all expectations, as strong of a team as we are, we lost. It was pretty sad. I have mixed feelings about the game. On one hand, 2 of the goals that we made didn't count as goals because the ref didn't see them go in. The first, I didn't even see so I dont know what happened, but the second one, bounced off of the middle vertical bar inside the goal and bounced out, but was not called a goal. Also, toward the end, some little guy fell next to Tom, he triped himself and they called Tom for triping.
Nick was quoted as saying, "That was the worst call I've seen yet." Nick has been to every Slashing Hyenas game this season and it competing against my sister for title of 'Biggest Hyenas Fan'. My sister has mised all of our games this season due to her trip to Asia [but gets back tomarrow =)]. All of that said, if the refs had been on top of things, we would have at least tied the game.
On the other hand, I don't feel like all of us were playing like we should have. We were all pooped soon into the game, I hadn't eaten all day yet, this was Trish's 2nd game of the day after being gone for 2 weeks. I just think we got too tired too quick. On the plus side, I did score my 4th goal of the season after a beautiful pass from Tom. All and all we are still tied for 2nd place in the league, but we are tied with 7 other teams, so....

My wonderfull work has called me in to work on 8 of the past 8 days I have been scheduled off, 2 of which I agreed to. They are just really making me mad. Aparently, I cant have a day off. Lance, Nick, and Michael are now all a part of the /mark news staff, but I don't know how much/if they will post at all. Hopefully the next few games will go better and my work will 'Es Tee Eff You'.

Update: Holy crap! I had 36 people go to my website on the 8th (yesterday). Thats the most since the day where I IMed everyone to go because i updated back in sept 2001. I have no idea why I'm getting so many hits. probably lances post, huh...
