Misfits Coming To An End...

Yesterday was my last official game of the season. :( Sad I am. I had sooo much fun this year. I can't believe how much I missed playing. It was so exciting. I looked forwarded to every game. Fortunately I got to play every game. I was sick for a while and was scared I wasn't going to be able to. But I got well enough in time and I'm a trooper! Also we never had to forfeit a game. Which is always a good thing. And we won games! Which is way exciting. Unfortunately during my high school years we didn't win many games, so this was super fun for me. Don't get me wrong. I loooooved the girls I played with and the times we had. But it sucked losing more often than winning. Lol I mean who likes that right? Haha. But it was never about winning. Honestly. Just about playing. True love for the sport. Just last night, while I was warming up for our game with one of our older, er advanced players on our team, Raul. He was talking about how he was aching all over and still playing. He asked me, "What am I still doing out here at my age, Vanessa?" We both agreed, we just love to play. Injured or not. Win or lose. Young or Aged. We love to play. No game is the same. But each game is exciting. He was already thinking of what our uniforms should look like for next season! Lol He said he asked his wife for a sewing machine for christmas. Lol That guy is a character. He's a cool dude.

Anyway, it turns out we have ONE MORE GAME. Monday we have a 'make-up' game. One of games got rained out. Which was lucky for me cuz that was during the time I was really sick. So ONE more game. POSSIBLY. HOPEFULLY. MAAAAAYBE... if we win that game, we miiiiiiiight have a chance at the championship. We don't know yet. That would be, omg, SO COOL. Never did we think we were going to do this good this year. Lol. We had some tough competition. But our little misfit team did good. We're kind of like the underdogs. Haha. Who doesn't love a good underdog team? Right? Everyone likes to root for the underdogs. =) So we'll see. I'm gonna be taking my camera to my last game. I need to get some last photos of everyone. I'm gonna miss our pizza rendez-vous after the games. The the beer pong games. Lol Good times.

Some photos and clips of past games. More to come.
