O St. Patrick's Day, the holiest of holy days. The day the beer flows like wine and the rivers run green with the blood of the Leprechaun sacrifices to the Wicker Man. Today everyone is Irish, so put on your sunscreen when you are outside and do a little jig while your at it. This post is not about the people who would be ruling the planet if not for the invention of whiskey, it is about practice!
I just received a wee little note from our own wee little leprechaun Dave, for those new lads out there who want to get a little bit more instruction/ballwork/worst part of my week, um I mean running/ etc in, show up to the field at about 7:30. There won't be a pot of gold, but there will be Kris, so that is something. So long all ye lucky lads.

This is quick reminder that there will be practice Tomorrow at Hutchinson Field from 8 - 9:30. I will be in attendance to expect to see the best looking SOB on the internet. Also, Saturday is gameday! We will be clashing with West Pot and I will post some info on that as the date approaches.
Finally, I would love to get a report about what in the blue blazes happened down in Savannah. Just shoot me an email or post it on the message board,and I will add it to the results page.Man of the hour, tooooooooo sweet to be sour.

What's Crackalackin?
With what remains of the squad we WILL be running practice on Saturday at Panzer pitch. Be booted up and ready to rock at 10 A.M.( Always Morning? Awesome Monkey? I can never tell with abbreviations, ftw). There is a need to have everyone there live and in color to prepare for the next game on the 20th of March at West Pot.
That's it for today on the news front, now to the weather, Jim? O right I don't have a weather department, I think that issue should be voted on in the next team meeting.

This is going to be a quick one as I am busy as ever, now there will be practice Wednesday night at Hutchinson Elementary. Be booted and ready to go by 8 P.M. Directions can be located below.
I did however find this and thought it would be worth a mention Rugby player making a great playing then booting all over the field. Reminds me of my college playing days, except without the great play part, just the booting lots and lots of booting. Gotta get back on the grind, unfortunately I will be missing practice tomorrow during the nicest week of the year so far because of class, but I will be there in spirit.
O and for those not heading to Savannah, any thoughts on touch Saturday?
Barge
What seems to be the cause of all this?
Tomorrow there will be a SCRIMMAGE at Panzer's Pitch, named for Fred Panzer a really lovely gent. SO, bring you teeth and bring guards to protect said teeth. We start up at 10 in the AM and hopefully the BEA-U-Tiful weather holds up.
O yes, Now for directions which can be found right about, wait for it.... BAM! The directions to Panzer's pitch are listed under the "Directions to the "Panzer Pitch"" section.
On a final note, we need to get some more props, not from like rappers, but props as in forwards.
Mad Props ( see what I did there?)

Due to inclement weather and the field being covered with ice, practice has been canceled. So instead there will be friendly get together at the Home of chicken arms(House of wing) in Herndon at 11 AM. Also the England vs Ireland 6 nations game starts at that particular time as well. There will be an attempt to get practice up and running (pun, booya) on Wednesday so keep checking here for your world wide leader in Western Suburbs news.

O Boy, that's a Bingo!
Practice is BEGUN! Got this little update last night from my favorite President (outside of Andrew Jackson of course). It reads:
"Here is our practice plan for this spring. We will start this Saturday at the Panzer pitch at 10 am. There may still be some snow but we will attempt to get some simple running and drills in followed by a nearby social hour. Please do not park in a resident reserved space-parking space designation may still be obscured by snow. We have Hutchison Elementary (a lit turf field in Herndon across the road from HOW) every Wednesday in March from 8-9:30pm. This will be our only midweek practice in March. We will focus on rubgy, not fitness, so train on your own. April 1,6 and 8 we will be at Panzer from 6-8pm. We pick up Poplar Tree #1(grass) with lights from April 13 thru July from 7-10pm. Everyone is expected to show up on Saturday to kick off the spring season."
Very well then practice at Panzers at 10 in the morning on Saturday. Directions and a preview of Kris.
Step tap step tap and Spirit Fingers, now bow.

Wow, I am about as good at this webmaster thing as I am running long distances. The site should be up and running just like it was before I decided to switch the style up. And since the end's justify the means (Thank you Niccolo Machiavelli), and the site is now fixed, I am a hero. You can all thank me with a beer at the bar.
Super Barge is up up and AWAY!
As you can see the site has gone through a little facelift, some of the pages from before are missing and will be replaced. There is still some work to be done and I will be working valiantly to finish it, so fear not.
Looks like the season is about to pick up and there is a search for a reliable field and time to practice on said field. If anyone has input just shoot me an email. That is all from me for now, would like to thank the Beastie Boys from bringing me in on this post(They said I was welcome), such nice manners on the Brooklyn trio.
Stay Fresh y'all

Gents, a million apologies for my lack of educational and yet somehow sensual posts.
I have just started a new position (raises roof motion) and have been completely
swamped. Hopefully however from here on out I will be able to make more frequent
posts.
On to the news, we have added a game for May 1st at Blackwater. That is it for me on this side.
Barge out
Two days, two posts, I might have to take a break after this.
Same news as yesterday, there is practice on Saturday at 10 down to Panzer's Pitch. There
may be a venue change and you will hear it hear first, or on the message board,
or from somebody on the team, but my point is that you will hear it here.
Fun little story hear about a Rhodes Scholar who took a year off from college football
to go to Oxford to work on his thesis here. Spoiler alert, the story is not about me even though
we kinda look alike. Hope to see everyone there on Saturday.
He gets up before he gets down.
Barge
It's official, practice is on for Saturday.
Starting this week 10 am at the Panzer Pitch we will be running touch despite the
temperature being... wow, nevermind. Practice is ON so lets boogie. There is a possibility
of it moving to a turf field so keep an eye out on the message board and your portal
to all the news fit to print What's New?.
The field can be located on this handy little
page and if there are any questions just shoot them this way because remember,
there are no stupid questions, just stupid people asking questions.
Happy Friday
Greg was looking to get a game of touch together on Saturday at noon down to Poplar
Tree park. If everyone who is interested would please raise their hand, o wait nevermind,
if everyone could post a reply on the message board that would be great. I plan
on being there so you got that going for you. I guess that is all.
Colts and Vikings are going to win this weekend, so BOOK IT! Barge
