6/21 Game and some housekeeping

Well, that one hurt a little...being up 2 - 0 and then losing 3 - 2 sucks. I think the take home from this one is we need to get better (as usual) at possession in the mid-field. I am calling myself out on this one and I hope I can answer the call. I think our midfield is getting sucked up into the offense too much and we need to do a better job of playing positions. Overall the play was solid, we just didn't step to the ball as well as we have recently. There were some great runs made by our wings, the ladies did a good job. Ellen and John got the goals and they were both pretty - nice job guys. We had a few other chances and just missed.

The jersey lady (Lisa) showed up at the end of the game (for the folks that weren't there). I need you all to update your Team Cowboy profile with your size (click update profile in the upper right under the donate image). A few notes for those of you who weren't there, sizes seem big - Greg was thinking a large, Ellen was a small, Debra was a medium. No numbers for us so that is optional. Remember that in the winter we'll need to wear undershirts, unless you are crazy, so factor that in. I am hoping to get the order together early next week.

Subs - just to be clear, there will be an email sent out when we need you folks. Until you get the email, please don't reply to the attendance (unless you can't make the game - but even then that isn't necessary). I want to be sure the folks that pay get enough playing time. Also, we are only getting jerseys for the full time folks but I am getting a few extras for when subs play.

Finally, no game next week. There is a Sounders Sunday home game (and a few of us are running the 1/2 marathon on Sat). Next game is July 5th so if you are out of town please respond to the attendance as soon as you can (nice job Ellen!).

See you on the pitch (or at the pub)
