Lunch frisbee. Only 7 people, though Strode showed up with his baby to watch. The other team definitely had better throwers, we had a bit more speed. Verdin alternated teams. The other team scored right away with only 3 players, then again later in the game, so they really whupped us. We had our chances but lots of unforced errors with bad throws and missed catches. I missed a diver into the end zone. I did have 2 crazy saves on defense in the end zone. Blah. Fun, but we got whupped. 3-5.

Lunch- frisbee. 9 people, so 4v4 with a sub on the other team. Fairly fair teams, though the new guy on the other team made some key mistakes in the game to 5, so my team won 5-1. Played another game, and my team lost 3-2.

Lunch yoga then frisbee. Biggest crowd in a while today, 15. My team had the sub. We didn't split the teams well- my team had 4 of the slowest 5. We could have still been competitive had we played better, but none of us were throwing well, and we had several inexperienced guys who were clogging the cutting lanes. Game to 5 started and we were quickly down 0-4. We then scored 2 before they finished the game. It was not the funnest game and kind of frustrating overall. Oh well, still fun, just not as fun as normal.
