Last night we had our first intergenerational foosball game (I suspect of many). The Fruit of the Murphy Loins declared that their team name was “The Shockers”; the Murphy Fearless Leaders decided to remain nameless. Despite the confident predictions of victory by the Shockers, they in fact were the ones shocked as they went down to defeat. No victory dance took place as the victors were too old and tired to bother. Play of the game was characterized by observers, if there had been any, as extremely poor in every aspect but sportsmanship.
