Sunday October 17

46 and clear at 8 AM game time, perfect! It's Shirt Day, so we had quite a crowd. Almost everybody except Keith, Jay and Doug. Three guests joined us, big Joe from last week, Ironman Joe who played a couple of Wednesday nights this summer, and college boy Sideshow Jake. Rocculous brought the new jerseys, but he couldn't stay to play. Super Mario came back, but he is still gimpy, so he sat in at the white net. Shamu has some physical complaint, so he started in the blue net. Steve showed up a little late and took over from Scott, but then Steve took to the field and let Scott join the fun, back in the net. At some point we had as many as 28 people on the turf. But Kennington & guest Joe left early, Makkkkk Schwatz switched to blue, and things settled down.

Blue scored early but that was it. The white defense with Makkkkk Schwatz, Frank, me and later Chopman and Carlos was pretty formidable. Frank managed to thwart two one on one attacks by Vicente late in the game. White got on the board with a goal by Jordan, and then the hat trick boys had two apiece, 5-1 finish.

I would like to invite all of you to the annual Dick Meighan 5k run. It's 9 AM Thanksgiving morning in Upper Saddle River and there will be over 1,000 runners. Last year Makkkkk Schwatz, Papa Ya-ya, Keeper Steve, Keeb-o and I wore our WSS jerseys, and we all finished. This year there will be refreshments served in my driveway immediately after the race, and maybe before. So sign up, it's a lot of fun. http://www.dickmeighan5krun.org/
