All,
 
Yes, we did it again!!! We showed all the teams in 30C division that we
were the Champions and we still are the Champions.
 
Wow............. Wow........... Wow!!!
 
Congratulations to our team, to all our players, forwards, backwards,
middlewards, starters, backups, goalie(s). It was a very tough and very
very challenging, yet extremely exciting season for all of us. Team
Dragon went all the way through, to the point where we got a Champion
Trophy in this very special 30C division for Fall 2001 season.
 
Despite all the economic downturns. Despite all the layoffs, threats.
Despite all the injuries. Despite all distractions from LA tournament.
Despite all the resistances from family. We, as a team, overcame the
burdens and stood up proudly one more time as CHAMPIONs. Thanks for the
supports from family (yes!), from x-Dragons, and friends.
 
Much thanks to those 13+1/2 players who showed up on Sunday, 11/18/2001,
fought really hard for the team, and brought the trophy back to the
team!!! And my special solute to Li Huan who took over the team in the
difficult situation.
 
Go Dragons! What a dream coming true!!!
 
Scott is honored (yes!) and well-deserved (yes again!) to host the
famous Celebration Party at his NEW house this Saturday. Thanks, Scott.
So please try every of your effort to make it. It is going to be fun. 1)
BinBing has offered to make 'IT' up during the party; 2) Bai Qing's
proposing 3-peat; (to be honest, not quite sure if he could show up for
the party, even though BQ may say big YES; 3) I bring a bottle of
Chinese wine to the party. 4) Wang Qi will show .......
Like Li Huan said, "What a thrilling and memorable experience for all of
us". To add more memoriam to it, I have already ordered 21 trophies of
14' tall for all the players. Please look for your name in the
attachments for detailed infomation. It would be shipped today and
arrived next Monday. I am sure every player would love it.

Again, it was a great season. I love the team, and I love you all. I
have received constant support from most of the teammates. I apprecite
that very much. I could not do it better with that kind of support. So
enjoy the off-season, have a good rest, and spend more time with
families on Sundays.

We shall get ready and come back next Spring 2002.

Go Dragons,
