Oh, long break. yeah yeah exactly yeah yeah but usually we don't take breaks we're just on to the next one yeah uh tell everybody all about it yeah so this was i think maybe like a year maybe year and a half of just us playing volleyball um season after season straight we've it's it's been really fun because when we first started this long run of volleyball it was me and a few friends that has grown into such a strong team where we met a few people we met keenan we met bella we met kaylin right who how quickly did snowmike mike flake on the whole operation because he

Blessing Adeoye Jr. 1:49

He was part of this. Oh, that was years ago. That was years ago. No, that was like when we were first, that was when we were still playing soccer. Kickball, yeah. Yeah, yeah, yeah. That was when Leanne's a broker leg. Yeah, I remember. I remember. That was so long ago. Mike's not been a part of it for a very long time. It's just been me and the homies, and now like.

Greg Miller 2:02

Did you meet the homies through the original kickball?

Blessing Adeoye Jr. 2:05

Yeah. That's the thing is when we first started soccer, the first season of soccer, met our friend Kyle. Kyle is a dude who had started playing rec league sports because he heard us talking about it on the podcast. That's cool. Signed up for soccer. We hadn't been doing soccer. We were doing softball at the time. And then he sees us on the soccer view. He's like, oh shit, I signed up for soccer because I heard you guys talking about rec league sports. You know, I wanted to get into it. So we met Kyle through that. Over time, we meet other people. My friend Asen gets involved in it. Asen, of course, you know from the marathon stream as well. Of course. And then, like, when we start playing volleyball, that's when we get, yeah, Kaylin, Bella, Keenan, people who are just dropping into the team.

Blessing Adeoye Jr. 2:42

Like, they come in. We start to gel. We start to have, like, this chemistry that allows us to play better and better. And over time, we go from being... We go from like having a losing streak and never winning a game of volleyball to then winning some games of volleyball to then winning like half the time. And then for about, I want to say four to five seasons, we've been getting into the finals. Yeah. And the last season, three seasons now, like the previous season and the season before that, we've met the same team in the final.

Greg Miller 3:12

And they beat us. This is a cinematic journey.

Blessing Adeoye Jr. 3:14

Legitimately, they have beat us both times in the finals. And we look at that team as these are our rivals. They're the Cobra Kai. They're the Cobra Kai. I've not seen Cobra Kai, but I assume they're the Cobra Kai. And I'm like, we're all like we got to beat them like we got to beat are they nice are they assholes there's that's the problem is that they're so nice they're the nicest team one of the guys the best player on their team who we assume is the captain he after after you play them he'll give us snacks like last night he gave us these fruit snacks and like these granola bars like great smiling the whole time meanwhile our team anytime we get a point we're like fuck yeah like giving each other high fives actually like spring champagne in his face yeah
