Soccer Heroes

MVP: Mad Maxx for shut-down tenacious D and the kind clears.

You know Chucker wants it for his hat trick or whatever--very impressive, indeed--but soccer is primarily a passing game....

Bacnasty takes out the Great White, whose nearly-40-yr-old bones just can't keep up.

Pouliout pronounces this one our finest hour yet, and she may well be correct. Excellent, hard-fought play all around. Very little whining.

Some kids might want to learn how to tie their shoes, though.

Diskin the Disch

Kind kind ultimate.

Starts out with WAY too much whining, but finally the Dischers settle into a good competitive game. Street Clothes tries hard to knock the ole chip off his shoulder; puts forth a fine effort. Defensive Player of the Game, baby.

Shoes runs away with MVP (though the Jordan rule is in full, obvious effect).

FOOOOOBALLL

FOOOOBALLL! MUDDY! SLIPPERY! AAAAAAAAAH!

MVP, only because he begged so much and CLAIMS to have scored 4 TD's for the crusha team, Chucker, aka Terrell Owens, aka Ellie Smith.

Defensive player of the game: ?

Did anyone actually play defense? OBD, #3 on the sketch list still, after all this time, gets a nod here for when he intercepted a beautiful Joe Montana pass. (Joe was a sweet sweet passer, just in case you never hearda him....)

It's been too long since ULTIMATE!!!! But a number of the fellas dig the ole FB, so we'll try to make it a regular once-a-weeker....

Indoor Kon Dischin

Kon Disch took their game indoors for a bit o' instructional vidding--some sweet Muay Thai butt-kickin and a kind game of ultimate in which Brown stole the UPA championship from perrenial powerhouse Colorado (Great White's alma mom).

MVP of the day was Tony Ja, aka Tony He, mostly on account that we watched the real Tony Ja in action.

The Jordan Conundrum

In the days of Michael Jordan, the sports awardists had a hard time with the ole MVP. They couldn't just give it to him every year, even though he was deserving. We're like that at Kon Disch with the Wildman, former JV Captain. He's always the best on the court.

So MVP today goes to Wildman anyway.

Play of the Day? You know the Great White wants this one. Winning shot. Top o' the key. For TWO (though we only needed one).

Mad Maxx also had a sweet shot early in the game. Takin it to the BANK like ole Timmy Duncan, the greatest should-be Celtic in history.

Chucker jacked up his usual fare, hitting a few here and there.

Defensive player of the game? Your guess....

Missed ole Street Clothes today, off getting the braces tightened or something.

Took on the LARGES--that group of football hoodlums fronted by Burns Boy aka Lex Browning and OBD--numbers 4 and 3 on the Sketch List, respectively. Also Quinn the Eskimo and Tomas d'Arsenal played on the Black team, helping Great White to victory for the first time in recent memory.

Lapsed Posts

Jeezum Crowbee! Prit'near a week sints the last post here to Kon Discht.

The Great White went back to the home country after a failed attempt to bring out the small bear on Thursday. Poached the pow up to Jay Peak.

Little Football on last Thursday Friday. Guess it didn't hurt that bad. Might try it again some day.

Monday comes round with a fine game of SNOW ULTIMATE. Chucker Smith comes up large on the defensive end earning DPG honors. Wildman scores MVP yet again with some purty throws--cool how they keep spinning when they land in the snow. The Green lays out for a kind touchdown, but Play of the Day goes to Mr. Great White with a tumbling TD catch in the snow--the only dive or tumble of the ten he takes that he actually comes up with the disc!

Tuesday is sloppy soccer. Too much squabbling! Just play the game. Respect the rules already.... Jeez Louise.

Play of the Day: Tony Ja (aka Tony He) breaks the bejezum out of Mr. Streetclothes ankles and then dribbles TWO laps around him. Might be considered TAUNTING, and therefore a violation of the SPIRIT of the GAME, but then again, it was pretty dang funny.

Player of the Game? Lee EV. Only she can't really count since she's like varsity CAPTAIN and part of Pouliot's crew. But really, there's no one else today. Dark clouds....

Tomorrow: Satisfying the ole BASKETBALL JONES!

Wednesday Hoops Madness

Eli, aka "Chucker" wins the MVP today with some crazy insane unbelievable treys. He's runnin, he's chuckin, he's off balance, but they're Sports Center highlights. Makes you want to retire.

THE play though, comes after he's hit two miracle shots in a row. He comes down to the three point line, into traffic, picks up his dribble, travels a couple steps, dribbles again and launches--a swish!

Totally illegal, but you gotta let it count.

Unfortunate play of the game: Mr. Great White winds up to bomb a pass the length of the court, but doesn't see Wildman's face. Very unkind. Most sincerest apologies. By the end of the day, Wildman is back in action, though not 100%. Here's wishing him a speedy recovery.

Tuesday Soccer

Fierce battle; extremely close game.

The Un-Celtics win by a score of something like 8-3 led by MVP offense of the Wildman and bolstered by the smothering defense of Mr. Shoes.

Play of the game: three-way collison betwixt Dr. Dan Benoit, Mr. Shoes, and Mr. Great White. Brutality. Bruised shin, banged up finger, and a bit of the ole face in the mud.

Again, joined by the forces of Ms. Pouliot and Monsieur Hartell.
