FC WHAT???


FC Hollywood took the floor Saturday evening in Herford after a week hiatus.  Flashing.....lights...wait  FC Hollywood? Who is FC Hollywood?  Well, TV Werne 03 was dubbed FC Hollywood by an anonymous Herford writer who was responsible for putting together the game program.  This can most likely be attributed to the show fans get when they come watch TV Werne.  With such good looking guys like Aaron, Heptner and Manske deep ball of Haywood whats not to like.  Oh, and we can't forget the dribble drive of Freienstein. 

Tonight was nothing short of a best seller.  Multiple dunks, long range threes, and fluid ball movement left no one in attendance disappointed.  Basketball purest saw the execution, the spacing, and the crisp motion.  Thrillseekers got their fill of alley-oops, put back dunks, And 1s, and breakaway slams. 

The week off was prevalent throughout the first quarter.  TVW look unfocused and made numerous  uncharacteristic mistakes.  Simply put, they looked a little rusty.  To be completey honest, they simply couldn't pass nor catch the ball (essential elements of basketball).  If was almost like the ball was covered in this green monster slim that made it impossible to catch, or our hands were disconnect from our brains.  If you cant pass or catch your chances of scoring are pretty slim to none and slim left town a long time ago. 

After a stern warning from Rosic of TVW, they saw the light of Hollywood and decided to give the fans everything they paid for.  FC Hollywood, I mean TVW, would not score less than 30 points per quarter in the next three and call it a day finished with a convincing 111-57 victory.  I will have the game film up soon but it will have a password on it for security reasons.  If you would like to watch just shoot me and email or facebook message and I will give you the password.  I will use the same password for every film from now on. 

Great all-around victory.  I gotta keep it a little short this week as I got things to do.  Check out newspaper articles here, here and here.

P.S.  My men's team got a good win this week as well (without its coach because he had a game in Herford).  Thanks Andre for coaching.
