A Night At the Oscars – CRU 2 – ATX United 0
And the Oscar goes to….
BEST PASS TO A PLAYER IN AN OFFSIDE POSITION: Chappy, for his wonderful “assist” to Andy for a “goal” early in the second half. Apparently, Andy was offside by a good 15 yards.
BEST WEAPON ON A WINDY DAY WHEN LUKE’S THROW-IN IS UNAVAILABLE: The Peterson Goal Kick, which was cutting through the wind all day long.
BEST TUMBLE: Ciro, for getting destroyed inside the box.
BEST INSULT TO AN OPPONENT NEARLY RESULTING IN A BENCH-CLEARING BRAWL: Ryan Willis, for his timely comments directed towards a not-so-skinny ATX player at the end of the game.

BEST COMEBACK GOAL: Steve McKenna for his wonderful second half strike.
WORST COMEBACK MISS: Steve McKenna for his sitter.
BEST COMMITMENT TO WORRYING ABOUT THE FUCKING DEFENSE: Danimal

BEST USE OF SHOTS NOT RESULTING IN A GOAL: Adam
BEST SIZED SKULL FOR OUR TIGHT-ASS BASEBALL HATS: Derik
BEST PLAYER WHO ACTUALLY RESEMBLES A HONEY BADGER ON THE PITCH WHEN HE PLAYS: Chris G, who was running around like a tenacious beast all day with cobra’s blood on his fangs.
SPECIAL LIFETIME ACHIEVEMENT AWARD FOR SHOTS DIRECTED RIGHT AT THE KEEPER’S HANDS: Ciro, in a landslide
