View Full Version : AE's "Up All Night"
Who care's if it's just past midnight where I'm at now and that my game doesn't start till 3 am? I feel good! I'm determined to stay up and watch my game tonight! I haven't been able to "watch" my game since February, dang it! Now that I have the opportunity, I dang well better take it!
Who's with me? I need some support! :)

Just think, I can do my paperwork that due later on today, and then I can jump on the phone after the game! I am all set, as long as my wife answers her blasted cell phone today...don't mind me, just slightly aggravated about that...
Anyway, I'm going on a soda run...what do you want? :)

Well, Code Red Dew!
Ah, I forgot to give you choices! Let's see...our fabulous vending machines will have
Diet Coke, Diet Pepsi, Pepsi, and Coke. :)
There's an outside chance at a Dew. Of course, they're all likely to be luke warm. :)
Did I mention it is fiercely hot out here? Like, umm, check the temperature when you get the chance. Mercy! Can I get a cold front??

What?? Is that a typo? 330ml vs. 355ml? Ladies and gentlemen, we have a winner!
PEPSI is our soft drink challenge winner by 25ml! That's 25 more ml for my 50 cents!
Coke, I banish you to wherever the The Afoci and his Crawfish play at!

The match is currently being played, but no reports have been arriving yet. Please try again a little later and we have hopefully been able to establish contact with our reporter at the stadium.
I was counting then (back in 98)? Wow, I'm impressed.
What the heck?? Five minutes and no one has scored! Darn Hampton Roads area!
The match is in progress, 7 minutes of the first half have been played.
The crowd of 19241 turning up at The Crabpot today were greeted by some nasty showers of rain. Chesapeake had chosen a strategic 3-5-2 formation. The following players had been chosen: Boswell - Liljenander, Laine, Iftodi - Iqbal, Aybar, Sahlell, Emery, Duvgård - Björklind, Aceña Lopez.
Raiders had chosen a strategic 3-4-3 formation. They fielded: Neto - Hutton, Nguyen, Dailey - Kalinowski, Stoye, Worrall, Foster - Betts, Cagle, Wagner.

A scorching day at The Dome of Death, where 16918 spectators were in place for today´s match. Bombers had chosen a strategic 3-5-2 formation. The following players had been chosen: Cutler - del Corral, Goetz, Tãtaru - Washington, Torres, Sunan, Moore, Martinsson - Engels, Mújica.
Millard tactics involved an interesting 3-5-2 combination. They fielded: Vera - Vallejera, Clement, Colon - Norris, Moore, Dean, Walls, Kemp - Loyd, Alston.

Surprise beginning at The Fifth Dimension:
A mistake by the home sides central defence in the 2nd minute allowed Olav Johnsen to score 0 - 1 for Henrietta.
West Henrietta FC is on the road against the recently demoted Midwest United. This is certainly a mismatch on paper......but that's why they play the games!

Do they have Dr. Pepper there? (I would doubt it, but if they did, I would get you one, ae.)
I don't know what happened to HFP...the last I ever heard from him was when I was on the USS Bridge for the 2 weeks in May. He wrote me there once and said he'd been busy or something like that. But he didn't mention anything like this.

1 - 0 was a funny story: the seemingly nonchalant lob from Bombers´s Valeriu Tãtaru landed at the feet of Jesús Mújica who sent it into the net - goal!
Hell yah!!! I havent seen that one before either...kick ass!!!
15 minutes, no score.
Dr. Pepper, umm, I don't think we have it on board, but I'm sure I could find it out in town.

Yup, there was this really excited guy that joined the FbPro league I was in back then. He got the Broncos or something like that, and went off on a rampage
Raiders took the lead in the games 19:th minute with 0 - 1 after some elegant plays down the middle. Dan Wagner was the scorer.

See, sailors are very lazy. Why walk down 9 flights of stairs and across a carrier when you can pay someone else to do it for you?
Always quick and a menace to his opponents,David Duvgård was in the 20:th minute very close to getting through, but Otto Hutton managed to avert the attack. Chesapeake made a substitution in the 21st minute. David Duvgård limped off the field and was replaced by Paul Shelley. After 21 minutes Stew Emery made a dash down the middle past the away teams defenders scoring 1 - 1.
No, dang it!

Unbelievable......
Jerry Johnson was the first to reach the corner kick, but his header was saved by the keeper. However, Henrietta´s Nicolas Roy managed to get hold of the rebound and scored the 0-2 goal.
Both Midwest United and West Henrietta Fc ar (3-0-0) coming in. United holds a slight +12/+10 GD.
I was contemplating a PIC as I am still in the Cup, but instead went with a normal.

08-17-2003, 06:36 PM

The home crowd was given a certain amount of consolation when Per Haraldsson, after a brilliant midfield combination, put the reducing 1 - 2 goal away for Midwest.
oops, I mean, Go DEFENSE!
Blade6119
08-17-2003, 06:40 PM
Bombers put themselves up 2 - 0 when Jesús Mújica broke through on the right, leaving the entire defensive box behind him. The structure of the game started to change as Bombers decided to pull back and meet their opponents in the defensive zone.

bigjdotcom01
08-17-2003, 06:41 PM
Wow....this is coming fast and furious....
After 39 minutes Henrietta put themselves up by 2 - 3 as Brain Lemons finished off a strike from the left with a real cannon placed at the far post.
This is coming from two teams that had given up a total of 2 goals in 3 matches.
bigjdotcom01
08-17-2003, 06:42 PM

In the 40:th minute Midwest was able to score the equalising 3 - 3 goal. Per Haraldsson picked up a pass coming in from the right and chipped it past the away teams goalie.

I am quite impressed that my squad actually held the advantage. My playmaking training this season has been paying off handsomely in that respect.

In the 24:th minute cheers broke out as Göran Andersson found his way through the guests central defense line, clipping the 2 - 1 goal in for Sidekicks.
Halftime score was 2 - 1.
The fortyfive minutes were dominated by Sidekicks, with an impressive 67 percent possession of the ball.

A couple of quick and successful challenges, followed by a shot from just outside the penalty area after 41 minutes might have resulted in another goal for Bombers. However, Mikey Vera made a spectacular save. After several obvious shirt pulling incidents, Bombers´s Valeriu Tãtaru got himself booked. Bombers´s Elmer Washington left the field after 44 minutes because of a nasty blow to the shin. His replacement was Clay Goins. Several players seemed a little dazed by the warm weather, and were repeatedly tricked by the clever and agile Paul Walls. Millard kept trying to force their way through on the right side. Vernon Alston got his chance in the 44:th minute, but the home sides left defence held his position and was able to stop the attack. Halftime score was 2 - 0. The fortyfive minutes were dominated by Bombers, with an impressive 54 percent possession of the ball.

But I am not one of the many!

Here we go again.....
Midwest took the lead in the 49:th minute of the game by 4 to 3, as Logan Shaffer elegantly received a pass going deep, finishing off with a half-volley shot just below the bar. In the 52nd minute of the match the visitors central line of defence had to look on as Per Haraldsson dashed through, knocking home 5 - 3 for Midwest. By then Per Haraldsson was a three time scorer - a hat trick! Milko Pancic increased Midwests lead to 6 - 3 by putting a header away on a hooked ball from the right. The away team reduced the score to 6 - 4, as Donald Oldham struck home, set up well by a play from the left in the 54:th minute
Ten goals and there are still 30 minutes left.....

Nope...Wrong side of the country fellas.
Would it be wrong of me to say I don't remember his name?
I am pretty sure that he kicks for Temple.
