08/25/05 - SUMMER '05 WRAP-AROUND:

  • Congratulations to the Sidewalk Café Squad for capturing the MDCVSA Challenge Cup!

    Despite failing to secure a keeper for key matches (Jeff and Wes were off on holiday) we managed to secure our only hardware for the `05 season, and did so at the expense of the Lions . . . making it all that much sweeter.


  • Sidewalk and 3 Monkeys have solid summer sessions.

    Cheers to both sides for solid summer seasons. Sidewalk under-achieved somewhat in 1st Division with a 4-4-4 record, eventually falling to Atlas in the playoffs. 3 Monkeys did well to stay near the top of 2nd Division with an 8-0-2 record, before surrendering a 2-0 lead against Metro Sting in the finals. Funny that Metro’s #1 rule (as posted on their website) is “If you can't beat 'em at soccer, stay at the field later than them drinking beer. We've always been able to win that battle!” Well Metro, great job on the come from behind to win the final, but the we win the beer battle for a spilt on the day!


  • Peter and Santo rebuild/re-tool the Premiers . . . sans the tools!

    Following the late season meltdown by our premier side, our very own Peter Kane and Santo Russo have taken it upon themselves to raise the former State Champion side up from the ashes. You two have our full support!


  • Congratulations to “Coach Big Donkey”

    Congratulations to the legendary Matthew Kirkpatrick on landing a job as assistant coach at Longwood! Just know that we fully expect all the quality out of that program to come our way in the near future! Click here for more details.


    • THE WANK(s)
  • As this is the first (and no doubt last) Wank I have ever written, I think that it is important to consider the many different kinds of guys who make up our club. There are those who call it football, those who call it soccer. Those who see the first half of '05 as a success, those who see it as a failure, and those of us who drink too much for it really to matter. So for this Wank, I gathered many different opinions and perspectives to assemble the 10 Wanks of the Spring / Summer `05 Seasons:

      10. The referee who could not answer the question of whether or not players on the sideline at the end of a playoff game could take penalties to settle the match in Summer League play. He could not end the endless debate of whether or not there is a difference in the rules between FIFA and CVSA 7v7 Summer ball. An honorable mention goes to the referee who tried to cover for his cohort in #10 by saying that it is not the job of the referees to know if there are any differences from FIFA to CVSA 7v7 play. Well sir, you do service our league for pay. He continued by saying “What do you want us to do, hold a meeting and discuss it? Why would we do that?” Isn’t that what most businesses, schools, and other institutions do before launching a major project or campaign?

      9. The player(s) who would stand about and let one or two guys run this club. Worse than that, those who criticize the way those who do run the club do things.

      8. The Lion who bragged about his Masters team being a true Over 40s side, and then brings down ringers from one of their premier teams to hand the only regular season loss of the Spring `05 campaign to the Rat Masters.

      7. The same Lion from #8 who went on to complain about Sidewalk Café using ringers from the Fan Rats to win the Challenge Cup title over a Lions side from… you guessed it . . . the premier division. He failed to notice the players brought on from . . . you guessed it . . . our Masters side.

      6. Guys who wear day-glow yellow, orange, or completely white, boots.

      5. The 3 Monkeys’ crash in the D-2 final against Metro, despite being up 2-0 at half. Almost as bad as the Masters crash against Lions in the Spring. Almost redeemed by the fact that we stayed and drank till the park was closed.



      4. The Fan Rats’ crash from the top of the Premier division, despite a huge lead in points . . . not because they crashed, but how they crashed.

      3. Ringers. Don’t forget the perspective given to us in the Written History of the Fan Rats from the 97-98 season… “Ringers Suck!” They don’t show, or don’t care when they do because “its only Sunday ball.” Yeah wanker, but it OUR Sunday ball!

      2. There is no two…see #1.

      1. Our very own John C. Roach. Atopping the charts at the insistence of several senior club members. As one of them put it, “Roachy is #1, there is no second".

      See you in the Fall!
