It wasn't that they were a tougher team like we thought,
It's just that many of our guys just didn't show.
We played one guy short and after an injury we were
2 short. Yet we still managed to lose only by 5-9.
Knowing we should have won with our full roster
only stings more.
But the excitement for the night was on the field
next to us. The Brazilian and Salvadorean teams
who are also in our league were duking it out.
Throughout their game we could hear the very loud
supporters for both teams. Then hell broke loose
and it escalated into a full blown brawl. Their supporters
stormed the field, shirts came off in some kind of
fighting intimidation attempt, punches flew everywhere.
I saw 2 bloodied Brazilian guys limping out off the field.
They were outnumbered by the smaller and
more verocious Salvadorians.
One the guys on our team who grew up tough
in South Carolina likes to say that you just don't pick
a fight with someone who is poorer that you.
