A Taste of Greatness
Since last weeks game doesn’t have footage and we were run out of the building, let’s just pretend it didn’t happen, and we can focus on Monday’s game, sound good?
Fellas, we were close. We led for most of the game and even tried to come from behind late, but it wasn’t enough. But we still have Friday to look forward to.
There won’t be highlights on the blog...

Some Highlights and a Lotta Lowlights
Tough loss last week. The good news is, those guys were really awesome. We really shouldn’t be playing against teams of that caliber in the 2nd lowest division. And in other good news, we didn’t ever give up. We scored all 3 of our goals late in the 2nd half. And all of the goals were pretty sweet (more on that later).
Highlights & Lowlights
We have a little more of the...
Glimpses of Greatness
I don’t know about you guys, but I really thought we had turned a corner. I was expecting it to be all wins from here on out. Probably got a little ahead of myself, right? The truth is, we aren’t far from being a decent team. We just need to keep tweaking things each week. Here is what I took away, after watching the game tape.
Our new guys are coming along nicely

When You're Hot, You're Hot
What can we say, we were just way better than our competition this week. At half it was tied 3-3, but it ended 11-4. We aren’t playing worse competition, because this team tied the team we tied last week (woah, that’s a mouthful). So I guess that just means we are getting better as a team.

Blue Barracudas showed their resolve tonight. 2 goals late to tie and then an open net miss by @colemart to seal it.

The Saga Continues
So last night was pretty fun eh? I honestly couldn’t go to sleep until around 2:30 in the morning. I don’t know if it was the magical way we pulled back into that game or if it was the “almost fight” Mr. Doonkeen got into, but I was wired. It was a fantastic game, and we get more Mighty Duck like every time we take the field. Last game, Coach Bombay had given us some bad...

The Blue Cudas
The schedule for next week has been posted. I decided to find out how late we were going to play, so I can spin it to make it sound interesting for Ryan to come.
“We play at 11:30 pm. Mark Wahlberg was born at 11:30 pm, isn’t that pretty cool? It will be like you playing with him… sort of.” - example spin
Well, I couldn’t find us on any of the...
Major ups to @TheNateFerguson & @Bethroll for “jumping the broom”. Now you guys can go see that movie, and understand it.
Blank canvas & a glass of wine, let’s see what happens. http://t.co/cjr1sMR
Good first game Blue Barracudas. If they hadn’t kept track of score, it still would’ve been really embarrassing. #noWhereToGoButUp

Blue Barracudas Week 1
Found a team photo for Club Minence, except the curly haired guy is missing.
Cake Eaters
It looked like a scene from the Mighty Ducks. Us being the “District 5” team, and the other team clearly being the “Hawks”. It even had a little “Invasion of Normandy” feeling with all of the bodies laying on the bench and the field. Although, things looked really...

Using an iPhone seems dumb. Its so tiny compared to an iPad. #tweetsAboutBeingBetterThanYou #thatsHowThatCameOff #reallyThoughItsSmall #twss
For those of you that said, “I bet you won’t do the dougie at the Apple store after you get the iPad 2.” You were right. I did a heel click.

You wouldn’t figure that Paranormal Activity 2 on a Monday afternoon would really draw a crowd, but check it out. http://twitpic.com/375x7q
Being ahead of Texas is a NIGHTMARE for us #pokes fans, haha. Hope we close this game out.
If your going to Ice someone, you’ve gotta do it right! It’s all about presentation. http://twitpic.com/36mj1k
Thunder up! Thanks to @doonkeen for the tickets.

Shower song this morning, Craig David’s “Can You Fill Me In”. I’ll be taking requests for tomorrow. #kidsGotRange
Anytime your iTunes can smoothly transition from Will Smith’s “Miami” to Berlin’s “Take My Breath Away”, you have to get a little choked up.
Dez Bryant is a beast. Great rookie season he’s having on a crappy team. #goPokes
Everybody wish @doonkeen luck in the #nycmarathon tomorrow. He is going to run it in a Thunder jersey. #thunderUpFor26Miles
Conan T-Shirt #3 suckas! @TeamCoCo
I’m officially 2 for 3 on getting @TeamCoco shirts, thanks to @bendytree’s hack attack skills. #newWardrobe
All this wind is causing my house to make scary noises, and making me a little edgy. You guys know what happens next #nightVisionGoggles.

Officially shaved 3 days into #noshavenovember this morning. Mainly because I don’t like the ‘Amber Alert’ vibe my mustache creates.
'Fly'er Than The Rest Of Them
I gotta squash some beef I have with people’s fly’s being undone. The truth is, having your fly undone is not a big deal. Unless of course, you are some kind of weirdo that wears no undies (what’s known as in the biz as going ‘commando’). And if that’s the case, wo mamma, that is a huge, huge deal (or a little deal depending on…).
But, for the 95%...

Man, Mike Shanahan is really taking his Redskins job seriously. Been hitting the tanning bed a little much maybe?
Listening to the #okstate game on my way home, hoping they can hang on. Please o please don’t choke! #goPokes
This new iTunes ping is informing me that my favorite things to listen to are Pretty Ricky and Eiffel 65 (the Blue song)….BUSTED!
Here comes the 2-minute drill. Exciting game. #goBoise

My first fantasy draft of the season. Let the contract negotiations and auctioning begin. http://yfrog.com/ehpf6j
Just bought a drink from a kid running a lemonade stand. It’s all about location, and across the street is a good location.
Yeah, I’m watching Sinbad’s standup on @netflix, jealous? (it has a Naughty by Nature intro!!!)
The @netflix app for the iPhone is the taste. As @doonkeen said “I’m gonna need to take my headphones to the bathroom now.” #grossButTrue
