DRAW: 1-1 vs Jugglers – CRU Are CHAMPIONS!
Needing one point in the final two games to claim the Over 40B title, a short-handed CRU took the pitch against the dreaded Jugglers with dreams of another title on their minds. It was another week of “next man up” as half the squad was either injured, out of town, battling COVID, or raising a…
DRAW: 1-1 vs Old Boys – Short-Handed Badgers Grab a Draw and Ryan Willis is Alive and Well!
This was gonna be a tough one. The Honey Badgers were in desperate need of 11 players not injured, out of town, or missing in action. Luckily, no small thanks to Chris Peterson’s social media blitz, 11 players showed up and took the pitch to face the Old Boys on a beautiful Sunday morning. The…
WIN: 4-0 vs Travis FC – Badgers Inch One Step Closer to Title
In a rematch of the season’s opening day loss, Cameron Road wanted revenge on Travis FC on a boiling hot Sunday afternoon. Way too hot for April, but so goes Texas. The Honey Badgers had a lone sub on the sidelines and Travis FC showed up with none. The Badgers are on a roll with…
WIN: 3-1 vs ATX United – Badgers Keep It Rolling
Gigi remained unstoppable. A new Bald Dome of Power took center stage. Andy had white socks.
WIN: 1-0 vs Balcones – Badgers Grind To Stay Top Of The Table
On a glorious, sunny day, Cameron Road set up shop on field three to protect their lead at the top of the table. With the Jugglers tying before them, the Honey Badgers could build up a bit of a f-up barrier with a win against Balcones Fault and their boring green uniforms. The troops were…
WIN: 3-0 vs Jugglers – Badgers go Top Of The Table!
It was sweet sweet revenge for Cameron Road today as they leapfrogged The Jugglers to go back into first place on Jefe’s birthday. Jefe was there in spirit, as his physical body had been consuming mushrooms and margaritas since 6am as he received a day off to extend the celebrations. #sakibomb It was a (shocker)…
The Brians – Reboot!
Big News from the network as The Brians has been renewed for another season! This year, Brian Parks (original Brian) will be replacing Brian Thomas (Brian) as Schwarzy’s (new Brian) zany new roommate. Can’t wait to see all the trouble the’ll get into this season!
WIN: 3-2 vs Old Boys – Badgers Back on Track
It was a typical Texas weekend. Saturday was miserable and rainy, but Sunday was glorious, sunny with a chill in the air. So much of a chill at the wee hours of the morning that Jake turned up with a jet engine to keep everyone nice and toasty….. with the slight possibility of burning down…
LOSS: 2-1 vs Travis FC – Honey Badgers See Red in Opening Day Loss
Three months off and the Honey Badgers kicked off their season with a tough loss on field 10 out at Onion Creek. The numbers were solid with four subs. Derek was back on the pitch, Chappy was still not ready to suit up and Ciro was (presumably) cold somewhere. New Brian, who is actually original…
Ciro Escapes Ice Bath!
In either a moment of growth as a human being, or a complete lapse in judgement as chief CRU entertainer and jackass, Chappy decided to spare Ciro a hoodie-soaked ice bath on Sunday. But then, he learned that Jeff Z and Ciro were plotting his watery demise earlier, so 2022 might be a wet one…
The Brians – Lost at Sea
“Michigan, how could he move to Michigan? What does it all mean? Where will I find another Brian? Will I have to make one myself? “
DRAW: 1-1 vs ATX Untied – Photo Extravaganza vs Pesky ATX
Last game of the Fall Season and the last chance for the Badgers to solidify first place heading into “the big sleep” of the winter break. The Badgers were hoping to avoid the Elephant Hangover after smashing them to bits last weekend. What would Badger Town look like on this early Sunday morning? A cold…
All Hail Gianluca and His 6 Goal Game!!!
Yeah, it’s on the website, so you know it happened. Wow. Gigi is not so quietly obliterating all CRU scoring records this season. He’s already got 17 with 9 games left to play. Today, he netted 6 goals and 3 assists.
WIN: 14-0 vs Elephants – Honey Badgers Barely Squeak By Elephants
Hopefully these Elephants do forget, because they’ve been beaten 24-0 in two games against the explosive Honey Badgers. When you lose two games on the trot, the Elephants are the perfect medicine to make all the pain go away. With one sub at their disposal (what a treat!), Cameron Road hit the pitch on a…
LOSS: 5-4 vs Balcones Fault – Haunted Balcones Fault is All Tricks and No Treats in Halloween Thrilla
Thanks to Jefe for the mostly coherent recap….. Dateline: Austin’s False Fall, Sunday, October 31 – Halloween. Would last week’s slip-up with only a 7 man squad still haunt the Honey Badgers, or would they turn things around and get back to their winning ways? Would their be a victory feast of quality candy inside…
LOSS: 2-0 vs Jugglers – The Magnificent 7 Badgers Go Down Fighting
Now that’s a headline baby! Like the 300 Spartans at the Hot Gates of Thermopylae, the severely outnumbered Honey Badgers faced an onslaught of Juggalos, fresh from the Gathering. In a perfect storm of vacations, Covid restrictions, injuries and previous engagements, only 7 Honey Badgers were available to make the trek to Manor on a…
WIN: 4-1 vs Old Boys – No Tent, No Subs, No Problem
As summer continued to cling to Onion Creek for one last weekend, the field was sweltering like a Cinnabon oven. Badgertown was unusually tentless and sub-free. But there was a cool spider sighting. Usually, a lack of subs could pose a problem on a hot day, but as the Ol’Boys gathered up on the sidelines…
WIN: 2-1 vs Manchester United – There’s a Headline You Probably Never Thought You’d See
That’s right, you read it here first. Cameron Road defeated Manchester United’s Over 40 squad on Sunday afternoon at Onion Creek. Austin promised several inches of rain this weekend, but instead delivered a hot, humid, ragweed infused sweatshop of a pitch to do battle on. The Honey Badgers were welcoming back most of missing post-pandemic…
WIN: 4-0 vs ATX – Badgers are Back!
Field 10. The Treeline. A slight dew on the field. Jefe nestled inside Badgertown. Late players. Toddlers. A Jeff Z sighting! Ol’Schwarzy! Sweltering Texas heat. The scene was set for game #2 in this young Fall Season. The Honey Badgers were looking for a more competitive game this week and they got it from a…
The Brians…. New Blood!
Well that didn’t take long. Sorry BT, but in his first game back, Brian dropped you like a bad habit and chose his new screen partner for the fall sweeps.
WIN: 10-0 vs Elephants – CRU Takes Down Some Elephants with the Big Guns in the First Post-Pandemic Match Since March of 2020!!
553 days later, the Honey Badgers made their glorious return to the hallowed Onion Creek pitch to write the next chapter in their epic footballing fairytale. With the memories of Over 30 receding like Chappy’s hairline, the Honey Badgers started the new campaign in Over 40 with an 8am showdown against the Elephants. They say…
Another Player Entered Into the Dragon Relocation Program
Welcome the third former Dragon, and second signing of the new season! Guillermo has officially entered Badgertown to join forces with the dark side. We are stoked to have him and Nasty Nate for the future, and look forward to their first post-game ice baths.
