Sophie's Photo Roundup, Part Six
Sorry for my lapse in posting. Not much to report in the pool world. We just finished our season last night, as a wildcard draw against the first-ranked team in the league. We got two games up but couldn't hold on for the win. So it goes. It's been about 10 months since I last did a photo roundup, so I am definitely long overdue. Enjoy.
Above is a picture of Jeff, who is easily one of the best players never to have played on a Sophie's team. I've tried recruiting him but he's not interested.
This is Josh from a few months ago when we met up for some three-cushion billiards at Space Billiards in Koreatown. This is something that we need to do more often. Josh has become one of the most dependable players I've ever had the honor of playing with. Dependable because he's there every week and also because he's got the chops for when it counts most. He just came off an 11-3 season.
Slima, from a few weeks ago.
This is one of our new players, Howard. I've been very happy to have Howard on our team. Definitely one of the most easy-going people ever, he's got a real genuine southern-Virginia personality. I'm hoping he's able to stick around for at least a few more seasons. This was taken at Whiskey Ward.
My old teammate Freddy from last spring, taken very late one evening. Freddy has a house down in Puerto Rico and is constantly telling me I should come visit. I know he plays quite a bit of pool down there...but at Sophie's, not so much anymore.
Chris and Grace from Sophie's with Julie, our division rep. I have no idea when this was taken, looks like a summer picture.
Caveman, who I haven't seen in quite a while. Still shoots a pretty good game of pool.
My current teammate Freddy from Colombia, left, who has been at Sophie's for quite some time, and Abdi, who is in his second season with us.
Finally, a duo of Englishmen with an Irish guy in the middle. These guys were batting me around like a pinball several weeks ago. Three great players with wonderful personalities to boot. From left it's Jason, Conor and Dave.
