tonight's game against cheap-n-easy ended in victory for the monkees. seeing as we have lost most of our games this season, winning two weeks in a row is a great feeling. we really came together as a team tonight. its awesome watching a group like this progress throughout the season. we have all improved. the final score was 15-7. the team we played had great spirit. they even used a banana in their after game cheer.
and for the first time this season, we went out for beers after the game. we played on a field in forest hill near bathurst and st.clair, and not way up in (bfn) north york. we ended up at scallywags at st.clair and yonge where we enjoyed half price food (yay tuc benefits) and beer. i believe that the social aspect of playing team sports (read beers and wings after the game) is just as important as the time spent together on the field. it gives teams the opportunity to interact and socialize without the atmosphere of competition. you get to learn more about your fellow teammates in ways that you cannot on the field. it also gives teams the opportunity to socialize with the team you just played (though it did not happen tonight). that's something i miss about playing closer to downtown, the beer and wings with your team after. i'm glad we got to enjoy it tonight, especially with a win under out belt.
the raccoons also made an appearance at scallywags. man, those animals are ballzy.
i love this sport!
