It was his quick thinking that overcame a potentially severe delay to the West Court 1 pm game that would have set back the start time for all games like dominoes. Whoever was in charge of ref scheduling had an epic brain fart by scheduling two Megas to ref a game before theirs on the opposite court. Brady proposed either having the 1 pm refs take over the OT duties or subbing in two refs so his Megas could get their game going. That\u2019s the out of the box thinking and compromise that this league needs. Hero.<\/p>\n<p>Also, his lone goal was scored from inbounding the ball from his own goal line. A couple of lucky bounces, maybe, but still that&#8217;s impressive.<\/p>\n<p>Oh yeah, and welcome back <strong>GUNNER, the Super Raspberry<\/strong>!<\/p>\n<p><strong>FIRST STAR<\/strong><br \/>\n<strong>Cherie from LBS, Inc.<\/strong><br \/>\n<em>by #Richiepoothang<\/em><\/p>\n<div id=\"attachment_13663\" style=\"width: 310px\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\"><a href=\"http:\/\/www.btsh.org\/bruise\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/09\/cherie.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-13663\" class=\"wp-image-13663 size-medium\" src=\"http:\/\/www.btsh.org\/bruise\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/09\/cherie-300x179.jpg\" alt=\"cherie\" width=\"300\" height=\"179\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.miyagimedia.com\/bruise\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/09\/cherie-300x179.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.miyagimedia.com\/bruise\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/09\/cherie-768x458.jpg 768w, https:\/\/www.miyagimedia.com\/bruise\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/09\/cherie-1024x610.jpg 1024w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 300px) 100vw, 300px\" \/><\/a><p id=\"caption-attachment-13663\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">Keeping the LBS alive.<\/p><\/div>\n<p>Hey guys, I typically don&#8217;t nominate someone who scores all the time, but this star is more for Cherie&#8217;s attendance. I saw what it took to get her to her game. We were in Maine at Diane and Zach&#8217;s wedding. While others had the good intentions to get to their games, Cherie had a plan to definitely make her&#8217;s.<\/p>\n<p>Before the wedding\u00a0on Saturday, she prepared herself for a quick get-a-way\u00a0on Sunday. When\u00a0Sunday\u00a0morning came, she was busy finishing up the packing and ensuring Michelle could get the exact right amount of chill time. She then gave very efficient, but satisfactory and sincere, good-bye hugs.<\/p>\n<p>I don&#8217;t know what she did with stops, but they also had to be just as efficient as those hugs since Ben tried to make it to his game and failed miserably. Utterly miserably.<\/p>\n<p>Then she scored a big goal in a win vs. Fresh Kills. \u00a0Keeping her team&#8217;s hopes alive of 1st place in the Formerly-Known-As Julie Katz Division.<\/p>\n<p>And she also was instrumental in clearing away the skateboarders from the West Court by rolling up her sleeves and flexing that Arm Wrestling Champ muscle on those miscreants.
