8 PAX showed at Midoriyama on Thursday. This is exactly how it went down. Before we got started we were talking about a move Blueprint introduced called soccer kicks. Picture kicking a hacky sack to yourself using the inside of each foot. Leppard gave it a try and it looked like he was trying to do some slow motion discount river dance. It was like you could watch the information drip from his brain to his feet.

Warmup:

SSH, high knees, butt kickers, soccer kicks-these were cut short after I saw Leppard trying again. It was really to much to handle let’s just mosey.

The Thang:

At the small soccer field we paired up for some Dora. 100 WWI’s, 200 Flutters count one leg, 300 overhead claps. Instead of run do 10 step ups on the bleachers then switch. After this we split into teams of four for some soccer. We are all pretty terrible. Some due to inexperience and others due to not playing in years. Def Leppard didn’t realize that soccer is a very physical game and expected it to be played like some new age ussy with a p sport. He wanted a safe space to decide where he would like to kick the ball. I let him know that it was ok to put some body into it when competing for the ball by doing so. Well this really upset his soft demeaner. Some time later as I attempted to steal the ball away from him he reached directly out with a push. While I’m tough and play that way this didn’t stop me. He continued to grab, hold and lean against me. All still ok with me. We are competing and that’s a part of it. I still managed to steal the ball away and as I made my exit away from him he fell down. That’s what happens when you put all your weight against something that moves. He seemed to get a little, we will say frustrated at this point. Blaming me for the whole exchange. It would seem Leppard has watched some modern day soccer and thought the flopping and crying was just a part of the game. While he has threatened a fight many times this was about as close as he has come. Hate to see it! Any way I think 7 of us had a good time and all the sprinting made me want to throw up. Fortunately team Broke, Blart, Pall Bearer, Freight won 7-6 or was it 5? Doesn’t matter, we won.
