AXL Round 1

Note : Start playing the video before you start reading this blog.


So, this weekend I had to prove myself (in my head) to X-Fighters, MacDev, and myself. No one told me to, it's just something I told myself. Which could of made things bad, but a bit of stress can actually increase performance, which is basically what happened.

Day 1 was a pretty long day to say the least, we had played some pretty amazing games and then we had also played some pretty amazingly crappy games. The team performance was alright in general, but most of the time we had probably way too much individual play. My favourite game by far was when Manny had been put in the penalty box and we had to lock the game down until he had done his time. Game starts with 4 vs 5, we lose two of our guys within the first 30 seconds, so it was down to 2 vs 5. Me and the remaining player had to play calm and tight and just wait until Manny came out of the box. He finally bursts out, and then quickly trades with one of the most people dangerous players on the field. With that done, he opened up the whole game for me and my team mate, and we just rolled over them after that. It was an amazing game and an amazing feeling.

Day 2 was a short but hard day. Manny and I arrived late to the first game which we got our asses kicked by a team which we shouldn't of lost to. Being a bit arrogant, but we believe that it had to do because the two of us had been barred from the field for that whole game. We didn't have as many games as the first day, and weren't against any hard teams either. But yeah, whatever. Our last game for the day was probably the best game I've ever played. I put all my heart, hate, focus, and energy into destroying the opposition. Which is something I did, hard. I bonus balled every one who walked off the field who I shot off, and I got pretty agro with their coach for trying to call a penalty on us for two of our players simultaneously bunkering someone out.

Sadly, we took 7...out of 8. I was given comments from people who I didn't even know that I was kicking a lot of ass this weekend from my bunker. I was even given a comment that I was too aggressive, and I felt I was holding back. Funny.

There was also controversy going on in the team as to who was getting right amount game time. Pretty lame, actually really lame. Two people on the team didn't understand why they weren't getting as much game time as others, they were told the strongest team was being put on, but there's some debate as to if it really was the winning team on the field. Hmm...yeah. Anyway.

I took a few photos from the event, but not too many of me. I've only converted a few so far, but you can check them out here. It's on my Facebook so far, but will up date my Picasa account soon enough.

Aight guys, see'ya.
