FootbaLL III (Nov 7th)
I
Is anyone interested in some FootbaLL at Cal Anderson Park or Seattle U this upcoming Saturday at 1ish? I may be a tad late because I have tree planting again. November 7th is the 4th annual Green Seattle Day, and a number of parks in Seattle (Cheasty Greenspace and many other forested locations across Seattle.
Locations include: Carkeek, Golden Gardens, Ravenna Park, Burke-Gilman Trail, Discovery, St. Mark's Greenbelt, Leschi Overlook, Seward, Maple School Ravine, East Duwamish Greenbelt, Westcrest, Lincoln, Camp Long, Orchard Street Ravine, and West Duwamish Greenbelt) are having sponsored events, so if you have time and don't want to play football (or want to play football after planting trees and pulling up rootballs and thistles, go ahead and sign up at your local park. It's a lot of fun.
On the 24th we had flags, courtesy of tworsandtwols, and had good games of 4 on 4 and 5 on 4.

I may be available pending my work schedule.
I also may have to bail early. If I do, I’ll let someone hold the flags until a later date.

Seems likely that Cal Anderson’s field will be claimed by soccer players. But we can play on the crappy crooked field.
Otherwise we might look for an abandoned high school field.
Either way, I’m “probable”.

WWBaker just told me he was interested too.
And I need to downgrade my status from “probable” to “day to day”. :(

Just change his status to 'flippy-floppy'

I think I'm out for this one,
as I’m already contracted out to play with another group of people in Bellevue starting earlier in the day

Timdor, a lurker here,
says he would love to play.

by JamMasterJesus on Nov 3, 2009 2:47 PM PST reply actions 0 recs
Is his name actually Timdor?
Or is that his username? Because if he has a username, couldn’t he have posted himself?
by PlaySportsinSeattle on Nov 6, 2009 1:47 PM PST up reply actions 0 recs
More importantly
does Timdor burn opposing defensive backs as if they were the countryside?

Timdor is his username.
Yes, he could have, but he is incredibly lazy.
Yes, you do have to worry about burnination of your secondary. He’s got brick hands though so it’s okay.

Put me as a maybe possibly.
I need to learn to wake up earlier.

Also
My friend Lindsay might play again… so it would be great if any other LLadies were interested in playing. She doesn’t want to have to humiliate Bretticus again. ;)

I did not know that BrettJMiller was the same person as Bretticus. Well that explains a lot.
by PlaySportsinSeattle on Nov 3, 2009 10:34 PM PST up reply actions 0 recs
Well, he's no longer in his Kirk Douglas phase.
He’s moved on to his Ron Jeremy phase now. Hardly the same person really.

I won't be there.

I figure you're probably gone by now
and even if you’re not, I gotta be heading out to work quickly, so I don’t think I’ll be bringing them over.

Since we don't have flags, people may want to bring light and dark shirts.
I’m bringing my bright green Carlson Jersey, and I’m assuming that I’ll be on the team opposite Jam Master, so Jam, you should wear… light or dark… whatever is the opposite of neon green.

Dark black.

Maybe I'll wear a blue jersey, don't want to get the neon green all scuffed up so I have to wash it again before heading to Qwest on Sunday.
Oh yeah, I’m in for sure.

I have something intriguing to discuss with you!

Well that was fucking awesome.
Hope your ankle sprain isn’t too bad, Chris. :(

Maybe we should try harder to find an empty field turf field
for footbaLL IV?
by johnbai on Nov 8, 2009 11:17 AM PST up reply actions 0 recs
I don't know who Chris is, since my name is legally Ocho Welker.
Yesterday I was gimping, today I’m hopping. I thought my inside ankle was hurt, but my outside ankle looks like a golf ball.
It should be fine in two weeks, and if not, I can always play all-time gimp safety.
Things I’ll buy before the next time we play just in case Carroll doesn’t make it:
Cones
Football
Things we need to think about:
Field.

I suppose this is the forum for this
Anyone up for football on Thanksgiving weekend? I’m sure I won’t be the only one coming into town for the holiday.

I may be up for that

Since it's Thanksgiving, would a meat helmet be ok?

someone faster than PlaySportsInSeattle. That’ll be fun.

I'm not sure if I can make it. I usually have to do family stuff all weekend, plus I'll be studying for the LSAT for the following week.
But if I do make it, I’ll probably bring my twin brother since he’ll be in town.

Oh, and I spent 10 minutes trying to invite you to the FB event,
only to realize that your last name wasn’t Bai, and that you were already on the list.

Next time I'll be in town is the 5th of December.
Anybody down for some FootbaLL then?

but don’t steal footbaLL IV’s thunder by announcing footbaLL V before IV even gets a fanpost!

I think that we should keep in one post if at all possible.
Wait until this one drops to post another.

I was by Garfield the other night
and there are a couple options there. The field on the east side of the school appears to be Field Turf, so that’s cool, and failing that, there’s the grass parks department field down below on the north side of the school.
