Participants - Patrick, Maciej, Jordan, James, Alex, Tommy, Peter, Ezra, Taylor, and Josh.
Offensive Player of the Game - Josh; never stopped running.
Defensive Player of the Game - Peter; stalwart blocker.
Played at: Gareena
Notable Absentees - Robbie, Neil, Matthew C.
Best Shotblock/Save - Peter, getting his blade on a long range shot from Alex. When it works, it's stone-age.
Best Goal - Patrick, a backhand from an impossible angle over the shoulder of Maciej. There was a snippet of room in the top corner, and Pat found it quite nicely.
Best Goalkeeper - Taylor, outdueling the inconsistent Maciej.
Best Deke - Alex, going inside and then out on Josh. A feat indeed!
Best Pass - Peter, finding James with a cross-rink forehand whip. Gorgeous pass, in between legs and sticks.
Biggest 'Robbie' - Maciej, who fanned on a perfect set up by Josh. All it would have taken was a gentle tap, but he fanned in a way that would make Robbie proud.
Biggest 'Jacob' - Josh and Ezra contributing to the only 'Jacob.' Ezra pressured Josh into knocking it out under the fence.
Best Fashion Sense - James; fancy, snazzy looking hat.
Worst Fashion Sense - Jordan; ugly pants into socks idea.
The James Moment - Peter taking at least 30 shots in the hands, legs and face from Jordan and Ezra respectively. Where the hell is pain threshold for the guy?
Convo of the Day -
Maciej - I cut myself at work.
Ezra - At Blockbuster?
Maciej - I cut myself with a boxcutter.
James - Cutting what?
Maciej - umm..a box.
Tommy - I hate boxes.
(Patrick eats cement, Alex points and laughs)
Notable Watchers - Guy with dogs, Evan, some girl, Jordan's mom, a basketball player, guy in red jacket who said hi to Josh.
