Yes, Oak Ridge has lost 2 games from the regular season with one due to sickness on the visiting team which we could never agree a re-schedule date and a cancellation from our senior night opponent due to fall break (not enough players available). I am not sure what the rules say in these situations other than they are just games lost and have no effect on the overall record. It is very frustrating when the lost games could keep two of our senior players from reaching a milestone 100 varsity games. I guess in the end we control our own destiny in the going forward in the playoffs but frustrating none the less.

I thought you were the ref that taught us sideline guys how to call offside from the opposite end of the field, without hesitation

Hey Tenn, don't sweat it. Those of us who have graduated from the certified side line referee school know that knowledge of the rules doesn't matter when you are yelling. It's all about the emotion, not the facts.

Germantown played us very tough today. Their keeper kept us at bay in the 1st half with some quality saves. Our left back came up and scored from about 25 yards on a shot that was virtually unstoppable. Gtwon came out strong in the 2nd half and took the game to us for the better part of 10 minutes but were unable to equalize. Our last goal came late on a good play by one of forwards to get past the keeper. A well played game but the heat index did take a toll on both teams in the 2nd half. I was very surprised no water breaks were required.

That is quite surprising. When we left it was 1 nil to ND and they were controlling the game.

Sharkey's was not too bad but I did not realize that Canes had pre-paid for all pizza at Mellow Mushroom. I needed a few brews after the Houston game so I am sorry that I went down Poplar a bit too far.

Thanks for the suggestion Canes , we know better than to go where the team goes.

Finished tied 2 ALL. According to my source is was a well balanced game with both teams playing a physical, fast game. Both had chances to win.
