Game Two: Ski Unit

Well, it’s early on Wednesday but the odds do not look good.

“And I wonder, still I wonder…… who’ll stop the rain?”

To be honest, I’d prefer not to start the season against these lamos. What we need is a warm up game against St. Peters or some team of that caliber. Not world beaters but someone to remind us that we need to turn it on. I guess time will tell if we get this 9:30 game in. If not, that’s just one more game where we’ll have Don (and possibly Matt) back in the lineup.

Game One: vs. Just One More

Boo to the first game of the year being cancelled due to rain.

We were set to get the 2009 season started against Just One More, who some of you may remember from years passed.  If I’m not mistaken, this is old man river’s team with some uppity players. We’ve beaten them a couple times and they’ve beaten us a couple times. Usually a good game so I’m looking forward to our reschedule.

Next week, we have a 9:30 game against Ski Unit. For those who don’t know, they’re young(er than us, anyway), fast, brash and feature a goofy dude in short shorts and a turtleneck wearing PAB.  That said, they’re pretty good and whenever we’ve beaten them, we snuck up on them with big runs early and put the pressure on them to keep up. Obviously a big test for so soon in the season but we’ll take it as a good measuring stick for what kind of shape we’re in. Let’s hope we spank em.
