Game, Set, Match, Tournament, Season

 

They played hard and well in the sleet and drizzle of the State semifinal, but weren't able to get past the wealthy private school.  The school with the well-paid coach and the hand-picked players from all over the State (and beyond).  No shame today; we'll get 'em next year.

 

Playoff Bound

 

In a small town, the High School is a BIG deal.  Today a special escort from LA's finest.  What a great bunch of guys we have -- both in the bus and within the cop cruisers.

 

Thread the Needle

 

 

This season finds our hero playing defense, so a ball in the net is a special thing now.

Park in a Driveway

 

Sure, the automobiles benefit from a decent shoveling, but we can't let them have all the fun.

Just Ain't Fair

 

The goalie guessed correctly this time, although our hero drilled it in anyway.  This just seems like a poor implementation of a tie-breaker, but the whole world does it and it may never change.

How to Rank

 

Here is a sample of how the highest ranking team likes to play.  Number 12 in white gets posterized with a nutmeg.  So in an attempt to save face, first trip #22 in Green who embarrassed him.  Second, as Green is going down, how about a good karate chop to the face.

(Rank[2]:  adjective, having a foul or offensive smell)

Same Thing Next Year

 They STILL don't make it easy to roll that thing into the net.

Oh wait, on second thought, maybe they do.
