Miracle Workers v. Shockers

Today was a glorious day for futbol, or soccer, whichever you prefer. I am really starting to think that there are a couple of child prodigies on our team. To bad it isn't Jack.I think Jack is a little to passive to play soccer. He isn't aggressive when it comes to getting the ball. He says it isn't nice to take things away from other people. Great! He is finally listening to what i say! During his warm up it became evident that he was more interested in looking cool and hitting on a teammate. Just happened to be the little girl that likes to eats grass. I guess he likes vegetarians. Anyway, the game wasn't quite as organized as the last but it was still good. Jack is getting better but hasn't mastered the art of the running kick. He has to stand and kick and then run. He did kick off and kick the ball in. One other time he found himself with the ball at his feet but spent too much time trying to line it up that one of the girls took it. No biggie Jack still gave us the thumbs up. The Shockers look like they are in the same predicament we are in. They had one stand out player who gave Kensley (Mom requested i not refer to her as "the tank") a run for her money. However, one reclined in a chair snacking on chips for the entire game while another chose to roll around in the middle of the field and i do mean that literally and another decided he didn't like the competition so he got his own ball and had his "me v. myself" game while the actual game was going on. After seeing that, I am convinced we have a great team now. Looks like a family soccer game for practice this weekend. We still came out on top. I don't think anyone is keeping up with it but me. Okay, so i am slightly competitive. :)

Nice job buddy. Macking on the the cutest girl on the team. I like his style. And look at it this way, she'd be a cheap date and you could take almost anywhere to eat. Maybe a sod farm if it's a special occasion...
