Tonight was Nellie's first hockey game of the season. Actually, ladies F league is so prestigious, that most of the game was playing this morning. I enjoyed myself and had a good workout, but part of me can't help but think, "fuck, Adams, you really suck." I'm so new/bad/pylon that I can't even describe it in hockey terms (No dangles?). I'll relate my lack of skills to what I know best...ultimate.
My defense: I'm that player that doesn't realize who their check is until the disc is at least half field. Then I "mark" - wave my hands in the air frantically (like the "signal") and count steamboats.
My offense: I'm that player that runs a lot, but never anywhere where anyone might care. A decent defender can cover my every movement with just a few steps. And then I get tired. And, heaven forbid I get the puck, I'm a total ATM (Automatic Turnover Machine). I think I had 27 turnovers tonight.
I'll just drink a beer, where a cape, and put more effort into the cheer than the game. I suck, but I'm having a great time doing it.

Only 27 turnovers? That's pretty decent! Did they bench you for the third period or something? Just wait till you score your first goal and you'll be saying-"I'm Heather-freaking-Adams, which way to the Saddledome?"
