Lots of stuff to get caught up on from a busy Sunday, so let's get right to the notes.
*Last night consisted of three extremely competitive games, despite Jared having to take over in between the posts. One veteran scout said of Jared's play "How did he even win a game?" Jared somehow managed to allow three backhanded goals to Dale.
*Game One of last night was a 5-4 final, so it needed no more competitive rage between players, but we still managed some fireworks. Brendon knocked Bradley to the ground only to entice Bradley to yell and attempt to orchestrate a "pick" against Brendon, it of course failed.
*Maybe we need to add another stat to the site? No, Johnny don't get too excited. NO more stats! One spectator said of Brendon and Dale "are they going for the record of least amount of passes in a game?"
*Borges gave his all last night while playing with not only a hobbled ankle but also third degree burns across his chest. The same cant be said of Brett and Billy, one veteran player on the dark team said of them "If they cant handle the New England heat, how are they going to handle the heat in Florida?" A phone call saying that you wouldn't be able to make it would have been nice guys or at the very least pick up your phones. One scout said "I question the toughness of these players and I question thier commitment to the team...I hope they prove me wrong."

Stats
This will be a small post for you guys. The stats were updated and I seperated the 'Rivals' stat to its own page. Also added 2 new polls.
Something Old, Something New, Something Borrowed...
It felt almost like a wedding Sunday night. Brett, played the role of the nervous groom and hurled up his stomach contents. The videographer, Ron, never showed up. And Tony was the bride that was late, leaving all spectators to wonder if he had gotten cold feet. In the end, it was a night to be remembered.
After all, there was something old: Veteran player Dale made his 2007-2008 debut Sunday night. Officially Dale had been listed as being on the Physically Unable to Perform list, although unconfirmed sources report he had been serving a suspension for violating the league's approved eye-gear policy. In any event, Dale was part of a defense corp that performed admirably, spear-headed by Tony's near flawless play in net.
Sunday night also featured something new: Ross and Jeff made their Saugus debut. Both players played well: Jeff showcasing an all-around game, and Ross showcasing the butterfly technique that made former career-long Colorado goalie Patrick Roy famous. Unfortunately their efforts alone could not stop the attack of the White team, who were buzzing around in the offensive zone all night (led by the attack of Johnny, Jared, and Brett). Reports after the game were that Ross was being treated for Repetitive Stress syndrome, the result of retrieving the ball from the net too many times. Team sources would not confirm however.
Something was borrowed: In the "What else is new Category", Nick borrowed someone's stick again. Nick was quoted as saying: "When Griff breaks the next stick I use, I'd rather it not be one that I paid for".
And finally, there was something blue. Or rather an entire team that was blue. That's right, the black team was blue. Losing all four games was bad enough, but scoring only 5 goals in 4 games is downright depressing. After the game Borges reportedly was set to become the first coach in Saugus history to carry out a public flogging of one of his players for, but hesitated when informed it was in fact against league rules.
One side-note note from this week’s action: Team White attempted to sabotage the black team by convincing winger Billy D to play with roller blades on. However the plot was sniffed out by team veteran Bobcat, who sought revenge in the form of Brett. Rumors allege that in return for a box of pink MTL t-shirts, White team winger Brett agreed to hurl all over his team bench, forcing Team White to vacate their bench for the remainder of the night.
That's all for today. This Sunday's game is at 6:45.

The lone Clip from 5/11/08
The lone Clip from 5/11/08
We'll you'd think with time off, I'd have nothing better to do but break down game film. I'm sorry that I didn't do more, but that 2nd week of filming, I missed alot of game footage. I was watching more than I was recording.
I can't add the new video to this blog without deleting the old ones. I don't have time to mess with it, so here is the link for the, "Ringing of Brett's Bells"
