September 21-24

Monday morning lunch at the mall, after that I was at Reservoir Park to do some prelim work for the start of the new season. We have eleven teams total, one of the teams from the spring season had struggled with manpower and decided not to return for the fall so the West Division has seven clubs instead of eight. Everybody plays fourteen games including one each against the teams from the opposite division with the remaining games against divisional opponents. On Tuesday night the season started with two crossover games and two West games, in the crossovers the Steamers beat the Hammerheads and the Blues defeated the Riot. In the West the Killbots won over H&F Tire Service via shootout and the Misfits prevailed over the Kings. On Wednesday the three teams that had not played on Tuesday made their season debuts. In the West the Hammerheads beat the Pub Dawgs via shootout, in crossover play H&F Tire won over the Oil Riggers, the Killbots knocked off the Blues and the UniLords beat the Kings. The week wrapped up on Thursday with three games all of crossover variety, the Oil Riggers defeated the Pub Dawgs, the UniLords beat the Riot and the Steamers won over the Misfits. Of the seventy-seven total games on the schedule twenty-eight of them are crossovers, the bulk of those are within the first three weeks of the season (all the better to get them over with). The season continues with another 4-4-3 week beginning on Tuesday the 29th. Take care, thanks for reading.
