DC's game yesterday was rather disappointing. :( I guess I shouldn't be that upset about a 1-1 tie since we were missing four starters. There was a nice higlight were Boswell and Esky joined the BB and SE. :D We had so few real scoring chances, but luckily for us Freddy put away a nice free kick. I think DeRoux did very well for his first with the big team and he definitely plays bigger than he really is, and I like his energy. As much as I love Nicky I missed having Troy back in goal. I'm glad Troy was just getting the day off rather than an injury.

The reserve game went much better with us winning 4-1. The two reserve games my Dad has missed both ended with big scores so maybe he should miss them more often. :p The first goal was scored off a free kick by Moose (I'm still waiting for the weather to cool off some more so I can wear my long sleeve Moose jersey). We had a number of guest players in this game and one of them Ssjemba (sp?) got a hat trick! :) Esky didn't play at all so I'm wondering if he has a knock of some kind. The fans were rather subdued especially when compared to the fun of having Mathis playing during the last game. I also got to the game really early and actually almost beat DCU there. I saw a few golf carts go by in the distance with some DCU players on them they went in the back way. But as I was walking towards the front entrance a cart went by me with Boz driving and I just smiled and wanted to say something like good luck (but I'm a chicken) :p.

I watched a few EPL games this weekend but only really paid attention to the Blackburn game. It was also pretty sad. None of the three penalties given were deserved so it was good that all were saved. Sheffield Utd shouldn't have even bothered trying the PKs with Big Bad Brad in goal. :p

Now switching over to American football real quick. Buffalo was beating NE for a while which is very surprising, but don't worry they gave up a saftey late to make sure and lose. I have a feeling Buffalo will make me very sad this season. :(

No it really isn't that bad especially with 5 starters out. I really like going to the reserve games. You get to see the younger guys play, and it's free so that's a plus. It's more of a laid back atmosphere with some heckling. :D

I'm pretty sure the goal was scored by Adam. Sorry it took so long to respond.

Yes... the Bills are going to be very sad, I think. I'll still go out and watch the game every week. But, damn, can't a girl get a break? Just one good season?

Oh another Bills fan! Sorry if you've already mentioned that to me, I can be forgetful. Do you actually go to the games? I've never been to one, and I have to be happy with just watching matchtracker since they are rarely on TV here.

No I just go out to a bar here to watch the games most weekends with some friends (Chiefs, 49ers, Lions and Colts fans -- clearly only one of us has been happy in recent years). I went to one game before I left Buffalo... it was fun, but it is a bit cold to be watching games outdoors up there anyway. Much nicer with a bucket full of corona and a nice warm burger in front of me!

Bobby Boswell is so hot. I'd never seen him up close before, but OMG. His photographs don't even begin to do him justice, I think it's the eyes...

His eyes are very nice. Lucky for me I have seen him up close (he even held the door open for me once, which makes me happy since I'm a dork). :P And he's also really great with the fans, which is definitely a plus.
