Hey everyone,
There’s a good bit of interest to play later in the afternoon given that some international matches will be broadcast on TV in the morning. 

I’m not going to change schedule willy nilly, but if there’s a sizable group that prefers 3pm rugby to 10am rugby, speak out and I’ll reschedule.  I’m looking for at least 8-10 people.  Respond with your preference when you get a chance. 

First, who’s in for Saturday?  No fancy posting this week.  Just let me know if you’re down.

Second, does anyone have a car and would be interested in driving to VA tomorrow night to play touch with the Alexandria team?  Dae Ho and I are considering it, and a car would go a long way. 

See everyone at the mall at 10 A.M.

Again, counting on others to bring a ball…

Guys,

Here’s a question: Who feels fat, ugly, and lifeless now that Wednesday rugby is taking a vacation until March 12, 2014 5:30 P.M.?  I know I do.  There’s only one remedy, playing Saturday rugby consistently, and never, ever, missing it because you’re “hungover”, or because you’re hosting a stupid friend who’s in town and he’s “not into rugby”, but instead is “into meeting randos and seeing where the night takes him–hopefully into the next morning” and needs you to play wingman all night to ensure that he “conquers DC like Eric Leif conquered Canada” or what ever that means…  Basically, what I’m saying is that we’ve only got rugby once a week now so lets be sure to get numbers for Saturday.  Who’s in???

PS  If you just can’t wait until Saturday, remember The Alexandria team plays on Thursdays (and Mondays) and would happily welcome any of us if we wanted to have a run with them.  If you’re interested, they play 7-9 P.M. at the Minnie Howard field off 395 and Kings Street.  The field is good and has lights!

We’re on for today, boys and girls.  I’ll see everyone at the mall at 5:30.  Someone bring a ball if they can.  Mine is retired…

Hey Guys,

In spite of early twilight we had a good run last week.  We’ll have even less light tomorrow, but at least the temperatures will be very favorable.  I think we can get in a good 45-60 minutes if we play at 5:30.  Who’s in?

Hey Guys,

We’re on for today.  We’re playing at the Mall at 5:30.  I didn’t bring my ball so someone else please bring one.  See everyone out there later today!

Hey Guys,

Who’s up for rugby tomorrow?  According to weather.com the sun will set around 6:15-6:20.  That doesn’t leave much sunlight, but if we arrive early enough, we can get in a good hour of rugby.  If you’re in, let’s shoot for 5:30 at the Mall. 

We had a good run last week despite early nightfall.  No reason we can’t do it one more time. 

Hey Guys,

The Alexandria team has welcomed us to play with them.  If you’re free, they play touch on Mondays and Thursdays from 7-9 P.M. at the Minnie Howard field off 395 and Kings Street.  The field is good and has lights!  It may be a bit of a trek for some, but I think its worth checking out if you can make it.  These guys know how to play the game well, so there are lessons to be learned.  Moreover, it’s fun to play with new people and spread the rugby appreciation around.  Check it out if you can. 

Alright, we’ve got numbers!  I’ll see everyone tomorrow at 10 AM at the mall.
