catch your breath

so tonight was a fabulous victory for the 4-0, A Squad, at "The Grove Broomball Throwdown." The A Squad consisted of ethan, suzi, ashley, nate england, laura Y., eric, and myself. We held it down with pride, Ethan coming through big in the sudden death finale versus the McCrone led squad and contributing an amazing full body stretch save, laura kicked in 4 of our 13 goals, Suzi was shutting down the wingmen on defense and shoving the boys to the ice, Ashley was attacking in her D, Nate all over the place, Eric smoothly maneuvering across the rink, and me chipping in where chipping was needed. After the Bartley/Frabot boasts on Tuesday night this was a much needed victory.

Competition definitely makes me come alive, I love the challennge of outthinking the other team, encouraging teammates on in their battle, exploiting weaknesses, and getting to work together with intensity towards a common goal. certainly a good night with a great team. I'm off to see Star Wars - Peace!

I trust you are taking good care of Sparkey. Everyone was mad jealous of you for having him on your driveway, let me tell you. Just another strike by the Killer K's!!

God bless you Jed, and have an extraordinary week.

we did bow down at your feet oh broombally one...actually for our team it was an application of intentional humility...we saw that we would gain more friends by keeping our skills off the ice...haha...yeah right...we were schooled...bad. it hurt.
