Well, the match was cancelled, so no pics. However, the whole thing was not without drama. I'm not sure if I can do it justice, but here goes:
1. The Bucks' (the gay team) match secretary sent an e-mail out to both teams at 10:30 Friday night saying they didn't have enough players to hold the match. (Thursday afternoon is generally considered late notice).
2. One of their sponsors, a chiropractor, wrote back to their whole team an email calling them "p*ssies".
3. Their coach, who used to play for my team years ago and is straight (as far as I know and his wife is beautiful) wrote the chiropractor back (not knowing that he was a Bucks sponsor and thinking he was someone from my team) saying that he hoped that comment had been a joke.
4. The chiropractor, who is gay, wrote their coach back saying that what he'd really meant to call them was a bunch of "f*ggots".
5. Their coach went ballistic, copied the e-mail and sent it to my team's coach, captain and me chewing us out for one of our guys sending that kind of e-mail.
6. The final e-mail in the thread was from one of the Bucks' officers to their team telling them that the chiropractor was not one of the guys from my team, but their own sponsor and asking them not to send any retaliatory e-mails to us.
All in all, the drama was more exhausting than the match would've been.
