I'm the only female playing and my first match is against the President and CEO of the company!! He admitted yesterday that he's a sore loser and that he would be humiliated to lose to a girl, lol. Yikes, and did I mention it's his birthday? So, now I'm gonna feel bad when I kick his ass ;) Hopefully I'll still have a job! haha!
UPDATE: Oh how the mighty have fallen, the 'mighty' being me. I lost by two goals :( He got to practice earlier though when I was in a video conference and I had a big crowd cheering me on against the boss. It made me nervous. It was a lot of fun though, I'm still charged from the game!
E-MAIL that my gloating boss sent out to the whole company:

I AM FOOSBAL, I AM KING, I AM MOVING ON. Let no player be left unturned and no goal unjustified for I have succeeded where other failed. With courage and grace, though unpracticed, I have left my mark on the game and on the field. Ryan, put me down for the next round!
-CEO
REPLY: Haha, glad to see it's not going to your head!
Happy Birthday!

RE: RE: tara schmara from another coworker:
A clear birthday gift...it's better to lose at foosball than to have to climb out of a cake like someone did last year...
Lol
ReplyDeleteAww, what a nice birthday gift. I can imagine that he would not have been a happy camper to lose a game on his birthday at all. Come on, I'm sure that you wouldn't? The extra practice time worked out well for him ;-)
