From Argosy to Faggotry-the Chicken Man saga continues...
Hey, we didn't exactly show up with our best team and they wanted to squash us. Repeatedly. They were pretty much able to do so until JB showed up.
You know my technology--after around 3 in a row on the beatdown factor, I tend to begin to suggest mixing things up. I don't think I've ever played on the same side as the best guy at Marquis, and asked about that--I was told to "get my loser ass on the other side." There was also plenty of taunting about play calling ("inside out/outside in," etc) No problem, part of the game, and these folks have perfect justification to take out a little vengeance now and then. But it did make me a bit saucy. Let the house determine the sauce factor. No problem, but when they turn up the heat, I will start to simmer.
I have a counter-proposal, Doc. I think we can go back 1 day next week and gift them with a new net, which they're starting to need.
Hope all went well at Cap Rock. I look forward to the AAR from there.
I'm wondering when the local news is going to pick up on the rash of drive by defilings being perpetrated by a gang of water volleyball hooligans at apartment complexes throughout the city?
I showed up 5 ish at the Riata on Sunday. Apparently Crawfish cooked himself and was unable to even make an appearance. But pretty much everyone else was there.
Good times. Full pool with full squad waiting. But really, can the net get any lower? You guys are gonna get me killed. Scott almost took my hand of on about my third play of the day. From what I saw, Jess and Scott share player of the day honors, because they really put on some dominant hitting performances.
Edub seems to have temporarily lost his serve, but Cory gained his official watervolleyball nickname--Get Some, because that's all he could say yesterday, with increasing volume as the day went on.
I think I went around .500 on the day, which is still good considering the strong temptation to pull a Crawfish myself and not play at all--thanks to Thomas for the motivation. Beating the rest of you to the punch, I was spiked on by a girl, twice. Acommodate the residents, that's my motto. I did manage around 5 blocks on the day and a 6-0 serving run (in a losing effort), and even had 1-2 spikes that managed to get through the tall trees.
Dick was asking about the awards ceremony, so start thinking of what a lifetime achievement award would look like.
