OK. So I left early on an interesting fire mission. I've heard some of you pandas are literate, so you can read the website.

Can you also write? Because the telling of the tale is not mine alone...

I was there for 3 hours, but, because we slacked into Riata mode, I only actually played game for about an hour.

On Tazzy B day, a superior team I was on with him went down 0-6. Then 10-4, good buddy. I get ridden pretty hard by the up and comers, Tazzy and Ford, about how I don't do things right in their system.

I did manage to get my hands on 4 Mikey hits when mismatched (note--not exactly a block, but I got up), and did manage to serve the last 3 points to victory.

Jess set me nice today when the play warranted and within my strike zone. I tried to pay back in kind.

Dub's serves were absolutely frightening. Don't let Jefferson warm up:

I counted at least 6 bird baths. In one game!

Make it stop!

I've also learned I don't play well under time pressure. Thinking about doing something else does not feature my breakaway speed.

Tried to do the best I could in the games I played, but I gotta say, I fit poorly into a Jethro system. I just don't get it.

the key is serving a looper that hits the back center. it appears many pandas are attempting to master this phenomenon.

games really struggled i thought. i just ended up giving up and packing it in. the rhythm just wasn't there. still not recovered from BBG ball. all ball now just not as good. i must do better.

i am on the IR for today, back is jacked. going to try monday. can't do early monday either.
