Before you answer (by voting to the right), please consider the following:
- The team fee is $300 bucks, although perhaps that fee could be lowered. Assuming all 8 of us joined, the fee would be $37 per person
- We would be guaranteed three games minimum (plus semifinals and /or finals)
- There are two 18-minute halves per round-robin game
- There are two 20-minute halves per elimination game
- All games are officiated by licensed FIFA/USSF Futsal referees, whatever that means
- Winners and runners-up receive trophies/medals
- Winners and runners-up qualify for national championship tournament, which is usually held in a city with slutty women
- Dates: Jan 16/17/18/19 ... Most games will take place on Sun. Jan. 18 and Mon. Jan. 19 in Brookline (some games may be played on Fri or Sat and/or in Concord or Lexington, depending on number or teams/brackets)
- This is the only Futsal tournament in New England sanctioned by FIFA and USSF, whatever that means
- The registration deadline is Jan. 11 2009
One final consideration is that this blog had promised its girlfriend a long weekend in ski country. I may get in some serious hot water by playing, but that is my dedication. You always see professional athletes engaged in grueling workouts as proof of their dedication. Not once, though, do you see any of these guys getting chewed out by the missus for playing. I'm sorry Kevin Garnett. I don't care how many curls you do in the off-season. Do you need to beg for permission to play in the NBA All-Star Game? I don't think so. Call me when you have to sleep on the couch.
