Clapham, Schlapham....

So what do you do after you give Clapham a 9-5 lead at half....

...well you go out and win the game on double game point!!!! We are now 2-0 this tournament on double game point. We clawed back to take the lead on Clapham 12-11 and then traded points to 14-13. This was a huge character win for us... HUGE!

The best part is that we played our whole roster and they played only 10-12 of their guys. There were some huge layout blocks blocks by Paul Sue and Garvin that really helped turn the tide in our favour. Dolan was Mr. Assist as he kept pumping out big throws to Sam and Ben in the endzone.

Clapham, from the colonial town of London, England, was ranked first in our pool and 5th overall so we stole their rank. We move on into a powerpool with Thong and Fakulti, both from Sydney, Australia and two other teams that I don't know yet from either Buzz Bullets, Chilly, Fire of London or Nomadic Tribe.

Time for dinner and a shower... and maybe I'll permit myself one celebratory Victoria Bitter... but no more because we have still accomplished nothing yet.

Yay Uncle Dan! But where are the pictures? I think every picture of a guy with a baseball cap and a disc is you, but Mommy keeps on saying no! She says that there's only two or three photographers submitting photos on the WUCC and Score-o-Matic sites, and none of them seem to have attended your games. Whassup with that? Good luck in your next games! Uncle Dan's going all the way! (For sure then we'll see pictures) Say hi to Aunt Courtney for me & Ben
