Regarding last week's soccer tournament (which officially ended today - finals), the AW team had a lot of fun. There were a few pulled muscles here and there and AW's cousin Mo got a little sick (upset stomach & slight fever).  But, they managed to keep on playing and finish the 5-game tournament.  Thanks to Mo for putting AW's pulled quadricep back in shape to finish his goaltending duties in the last 2 games.

The whole day was a lot of fun and the refs were super cool.  Thanks, guys.  Too bad the day had to end on a bit of a 'sour note' due to one team that came back drunk after the lunch break and started throwing around some 'not so' colorful comments - really classy bunch o' winners... not!  Also, off the record, a couple of teams allegedly tried to fix their last game against each other in order to eliminate another team.  DUDES - it's a f$%@! charity tournament!  You guys suck!

Anyways, let's stay focused on the positive stuff - fun day overall and the AW team had a good time (despite the losses and the 768 shots on net against AW ... lol!).  I think the AW team will bring a few more defencemen next time.  Thanks to the gang for showing up.  We'll be sure to bring a lawn chair (and a few more burgers) for Paolo next time - hope you slept enough, dude.  Ur a star! ;)

This weekend (Sunday, May 18, 2008), Anthony Wal, along with the band and a young team of soccer players, will participate in the annual ISSA Summer Cup 2008. This event is organized by Concordia University students (Montreal, Canada) in collaboration with UNICEF in order to raise funds for the organization. The team donated $300 as part of their registration for the tournament (proceeds going to UNICEF).  The event will take place at Loyola Campus in NDG (7141 Sherbrooke W.). For more info, contact: issa.fc@gmail.com or come out to the field to support a good cause.

Presently, the AW-band is in studio recording songs for the next CD. For more updates, come back and visit our blog soon.

Big thanks to Mark Boudreaux of the Tolucan Times and Canyon Crier.

Just thought I'd mention a little something about him.

Luciano Pavarotti - a man with an incredible, powerful and graceful voice... a person full of energy, aspiration, and dedication.  In some spiritual way, he really helped me love and appreciate what I do.  Thank you, Luciano.
