News and notes:
-
REMINDER- If you haven't already, please check the revised 2009 playoff bracket for your field locations and game times.  In addition, a revised ref  schedule should be out in the next 24 hours.  Please keep an eye out for that.  Again, the 5:00 and 6:30 games will have the standard ref schedule.  Some  8:00 and 9:30 games will have travel times.  Therefore, starting ALL games on time is very important.  PLEASE GET TO YOUR ASSIGNED REF/GAME  SITES AS QUICKLY AS POSSIBLE.  For equipment pickup/drop off: the team with the better seed in all games is the home team.  Last team that wins  at  a field drops off.  If you play in a 6:30 p.m. game and win (specifically at Cowser, Hobbs, Edgewood, or Water Tower Park) please drop off equipment at  Lerner garage as promptly as possible.  Someone will be waiting.
-My skills of prognostication are absolute crap. Â Still waiting on the bathrooms at Hobbs. Â From this point forward, I am going to abide by aÂ
city + 10 Â rule. Â Or, whatever timeline the COL tells me then add 10 weeks.
-Regarding the  Screamers, Captain Swaggarty has graciously offered to rescind the results (via email) of their two games because of inadvertently  using an  ineligible player.  Therefore, the bracket now reflects a ToePokes (W) and Screamers (L) as well as a Replay (W) and Screamers (L).  Matt  Whitesell assures me  that Replay will be fielding a team and fulfilling their ref responsibilities.  If the Replay choses not to play, they will be responsible   for ref duties this Sunday.
-Looks like the weather will be in the high 70's or low 80's when we start playing on Sunday. Â Wow.
-Cans for Community will be collecting cans at Lyons this week, so please plan on hauling your cans to that locale.
-Everybody did a fantastic job getting to and from game sites last weekend.  Looks like the only games that went late were those in extra innings.  The day  went very smoothly and we have you to thank for that.  Keep it up, only two weeks remain.  I appreciate the passion and commitment you've shown the    league as it wouldn't work without you.
See you this weekend!
