We warmed up in the same parking lot that we do every Sat. Somewhat predictable, but so were the warmup exercises.
IW, SSH, this and that
THE THANG: run to the fitness trailer for a partner, tripple dime of sorts.
Dips on one end, pull up on the other 5 rounds, but 10 exercises: dips and pull ups, meet in the middle and partner hand-slap merkins. I was dogging this. Toe jam and Curd crushed… wow!
Ok, this is where I lazy and really unoriginal. Real time killer of sorts… 5 islands- 1,2,3,4,5 of various exercises. Squats, jump squats, lunges, backwards lunges and probably something else… again, time filler and everyone knew it. Really good second F and where we lost Tag Along, to some possible Dukie in his drawers
However, BS here, 7’s on the street up to the bridge. Burpees + Big Boy sit ups. Crushing the pax and Moth on my heals
Mossy to the bridge and cheer on an unexpectimg runner, who seemed appriciate of our squat presses. Broken up by 50 each time, we did 200 including another spot. This is when Susan Summer and her 80’s bush was discussed!
Mosey back home for some more BS to finish out the day
MARY: yeah, she burns deep
ANNOUNCEMENTS: trail race, memorial ruck
COT: Thank you Cheese Curd and Toe Jam for allowing me to lead. I know you expect more and I will try harder.

Penniless and Poor
Date: 2025-05-09 AO: ufo-ultimatefriz Q: MARTA PAX: Spyglass, Shank, Yeti, Situation, Paris, Crawdad, Steve Hall, Broken Arrow, smokey, Fruity Pebbles, David Baker, Victoria, Zipper, MARTA, biden, Toad, pinkeye, peaches FNGs: None COUNT: 18 The match started out bleak. Another week with both @Shank and @Yeti mysteriously winding up on the same team yet again. It’s amazing often that’s happened the last month once yeti realized that the official win-loss record is being recorded. In addition, the pinnies were late again.. I hope the text chain lays down the lated to tardiness on Fridays.
We started nonetheless after someone imposed that you should be able to memorize your team by now. We are all friends right? To neutralize the yeti-shank combo, @freshmeat proposed to employ a zone despite no one on the field knowing anything about a zone. Straight out of the Pro leagues’ playbook which can be found at your local library with his other musings about disc manufacture, Pink employed the zone and immediately forced an easy turnover. In prime field position, YHC threw a dime of a hammer to a wide open fly with me in the endzone who was not wearing a yellow jersey or on my team. Indeed someone should memorize his team.
The match was a constant back and forth until the end with each team trading points. Paris arrived late after a late night, but it did not show in his play. Yellow maintained a fast paced offense while Pink focuses on a methodical time wasting strategy to score. Victoria pulled his inner Gronk and dominated the endzone for which Yellow had little answer. Welcome back Zipper who had been MiA for a few weeks and congrats on his 1st.
Toward the end of the match, terrible avoidable blunders were had by Pink which allowed yellow to take a commanding 2 pt lead. Pink fought back to force ultimate point and ultimately were vanquished.
