Hungry Hungry Beavos

Flippin' A! Doesn't get any better than this! 3 weeks ago I remember walking to work as pumped as Dodgy's Molten after we destroyed the Blue Chips, then again last week again as we held off IAI, having jumped from one peak to another. Poor Snaq has had to put up with my roaring, chanting and chest beating until 2 in the morning (but thats OK- I have to put up with his crumbs on the bench, freakin' capsicum juice on the floor and that pair of dirty socks which only just made their way out of the hallway!).

But then March 26: Beavers (5th) v Jayeyes (3rd) happened.

Talk about heart and the beavers of old! A return to the glory days. We had a job to do and flip me dead we got it done. Like the game v IAI, we were again outsized (which happens a lot to a team with 2 players at 6'4" and Nath at 6"3.5', and then adds TScope and Stats to the mix. Snaq's a 7 footer too) but played like we were all 6 inches taller.

Nathaniel got us off running- purchasing all our first quarter points and playing like a dog with bone for the whole freakin game. Dub and Scope are easily the best 1-2 punch in the whole of the BBBBBL. Stats was so huge on the offensive boards lately that (no disrespect to the Canyon) would see the Mr Boards award a hotly contested ballot. That tip in the third qtr deserves a special mention bro. The backcourt was again sensational! I have the best seat in the house to watch the killer defense run by the Gnomes: Long Mamba and Long Tan (dammit Tangles if you hadn't have had your wisdom teeth out- I could have said Long Tang as well!). You guys create half our offense from your defense. Ed made an enormous statment last night regarding the Mr Hustle Award... and for Mr Defense... and for Mr Injection... and for Mr Intangiables.

After two weeks of not talking myself up, I just want to add a little sumpin' sumpin' on your favourite pair of shoulders. I playing out of my skin these last few weeks. T is in the zone. 17 points to the big fella last night including a run of 8 straight unanswered in the second. I'm trying to keep my attitude positive, and my chin up. Keep feeding THippo and he'll keep eating.

They never let up, and in the dying moments they brought it as close as three points.

Jayeyes- thanks for coming, but there's the door. Beavs 42 def Jayeyes 36.

Payback's a bitch.

Next week the conso final- which'll prob have us down for a match v Electric Boogooloo (6th). Forget about kickin' ass, lets crack some heads. We shouldn't have to hold the ball v these guys, we should blow em clear out of the park.

Roar.

Really big.
