And we're back...

Okay so the holiday hiatus is over and I'm back on the beat!  You can rest easy once again good citizens of football city!

On top of that, my Berlin Rebels got back to work after some soccer hooligans called our game due to a bit of rain! Pfft!  Wouldn't want to tear up their precious field...it may uproot a rough patch of dirt that could chafe their skin when diving all about the place!  Anyway, rescheduling it to the end of the year will make for a good atmosphere when those mountain lion folk come down here, or at least I hope it will.  How cool would it be to battle for the playoff spot on the last day of the year?  Steve Sabol couldn't write that any better!

Anyway, if you didn't know the Berlin Rebels went up to Hmaburg to take on the undefeated Blue Devils in front of around 2,000 spectators; a fun venue to be sure but the fact that we lost 21-7 was somewhat disheartening to be honest!  The worst part is that after going up 7-0 we were in charge really until a broken play went 40 yards fro a TD before the half...lady momentum is a fickle expletive as I'm sure you all are well aware of!

Anyway, after the long trek home and getting to bed at 3:30am or something it hit me; my dream of being the first Irish-born player in GFL1 took a beating.  Given where we stand in GFL2 it's a tough road to GFL1, and we'll need favours from other teams.

So, here's hoping!  But as I've said before, I won't begrudge my old team mates in Lubeck for getting there first if they should, but let's not get ahead of ourselves jsut yet! ;)

Glad to be back an I have some interesting interviews/features planned for the near future, so stay tuned!

Slán for now.
