Month: January 2011

Winter records were broken by our team-member attendance.  It is end of a snowy of January,  and we had 16 people on the ground today. Youthful enthusiasm prevailed, and after one tired shovel worrier, grew another one to replace him. We extended the field, but only 4 on 4 could […]

Six people made their way through snow and cold.   Even small  “sniper” shovels played their role today.  And all were rewarded with a bright sunshine and mild windless conditions. Lenia G. like a mirage on the horizon was appearing several times, but never materialized into a flesh and blood.  What […]

Here are some Headlines for today’s game: Organization and discipline displayed under harsh conditions. 11 people, 6 WHITEs and 5 DARKs celebrated middle on the winter. Cold was not a factor today, but Alex B. was. DARKs needed, but never got help from Vadim L. and Yura D. Zhenia D. […]

Snow was fluffy and light. We were dressed too warm for the weather. We had to loose items of clothing every five minutes. Vova M. played without a hat or a bonnet. But let’s go in chronological order. Snow Removal Area Vova M. 1 / 3 33% Kolya P. 1 […]

Some get it more of it. some miss it entirely. It was a tough power football today. No one complained, but our Fall 2010 champion Vladis Sh. had to leave early (at 10:56) because of powerful blow in a groin area. That was not pretty.  Chris V. had to switch […]

We manage to free up not quite a tennis court-size-field, but closer to a basketball-size court in one hour.  We started the game at 10:30.  We had 9 players on the field, so all 29 goals are counted and recorded.  It wasn’t very hard, because 9 of 29 were scored […]

Vadim‘s orange T-short found. Oleg and Alex F. helped to clear large area in front of both goals.  We needed it, because we had 23 people today. Dr. Yurik will be most likely a new leader on a scoreboard after today’s victory. Lenia G. had a major mishap on and […]

14 people played today in the snow. Weather was really cooperating lately. Snow perfectly spaced out to allow wind and sun to eliminate annoying white powder. Glory, glory the mild New England weather! Today was a record breaking non-stop game from 9:45 to 12:02. It was a perfect 137-minutes-long stretch. […]

Who is writing scripts for our games? It must be a really talented playwright. Yura D. is gathering his thoughts before an important move. He brings the camera to create lasting memories. He stays above and beyond the point, where he usually leaves and goes home. And he becomes the […]

There is one spot on this dump called Skyline that is warm.  This spot is now snow-free, and it can accommodate a small 6-on-6 game.   So, what are we going to do with 20 people tomorrow?  Even with rain we will have plenty of people.  As Dr. Yurik said, […]
