WEEK 9 – TAKING IT TO THE 9s SEVENTEEN SYLLABLE STYLE

It was the kick heard round the east side and the internets. My phone feeds were flying as I working a concert and I knew something real big had happened at game of the week. I am sure we have all had those dreams. Those dreams of kicking it over your nemesis’s head to win the game, or dreams of making a diving catch and stopping the other team from scoring with bases loaded. The actual chance that such awesomeness would happen to anyone, especially during game of the week is about as rare as triple double in basketball. Congratulations to Dan Magua and Murda Inc for living the dream and embodying the excellence of victory. Dan you da man, a most humble man at that, thank you for making week eight truly great.

Of course major props also to Kunt Punts for being gracious non-winners that night. Major high fives to Scott Stewart and Nick Lerner for their scheduling mastery this season. Six games were decided by one run, two games by just two runs. Easy math tells me that half the games were decided by less than two runs. Picking winners these next two weeks might be decided just as easily if I were to flip a coin (then again that wouldn’t be any fun now would it.) Since I missed every singe game last week due to my job, let’s have some fun and talk about the sixteen match ups for week nine haiku style (see mom and dad I AM using my creative writing degree)

ROCKETS AT SACRED SWORD – GAME OF THE WEEK – HOBBS 9PM

This game deserves a little more love than seventeen syllables. Not only is this my roommies team versus the team I played with for six years. These are teams and players who have over the past decade brought the ruckus to game of the week. You put james findley, kyle schneweis and Andy Frye under the lights and let their talent and ego-ful athleticism soar. You give josh Hunt, Mary Costello and Pat Fielder a stage and they are going to sell it out and make it legendary. In addition we believe this to be the first ever game of the week where a husband and wife compete against each other. Will Dave Owens bunt one in front of Amber and see if she can chase him down? Will Amber boot one over Her hubby’s head just coz she can? At 9pm let the games begin. I am still hoping for a race around the bases in rocket costumes, dragon suits and ren-fest chain mail.
