Oye, Captain!

Tell ya what, being the captain of a team is not easy work. I spent a few hours today making sure we had enough players to show up for this evening's soccer game. Luckily with the help of a few players, I was able to scrounge up a few scrubs (I mean subs), whom were much needed on a hot and humid Minnesota summer's day.

But the hassle was all worth it with a 2-1 victory over a talented team whose worst player was probably their goalie. We should have won 5-1, but a victory is a victory and I'll take it.

To celebrate, several of our team members went to the nearby Dairy Queen to cool down. The lines were unbelievable. I think a hundred people were served in the half hour we spent there, and business was still going strong after we left. Who would think ice cream would be a good idea on a 90-degree day? Okay...Me. I recommend the Banana Split Blizzard. Deeelish.
