Double Chief birthdays was the call. That's not entirely true... Real double Chief birthdays are 9/20. That dovetails to an event I'm told is called Big Thursday, so maybe we get double secret double Chief birthdays.

I certainly hope so, because, the Birthday Twins had a pretty good day...

It's been decided TBone gets to be Arnold. He's the philosopher out there, after all...

Chief blocking Sand George, and New York? Yeah! Tbone digging, spiking, and killin! WHATT??

We started out with Quad City Djs double Chief Mikey Dub vs 5:

Added LJ, who said I wouldn't say this. We were down 0-8 against George, Gonzo, Scully, Marcetto, and New York.

He went 11 straight on serve. I added 3 more. That's 14 straight points...

Guess who won that game?

I won a lotta games, so did Tbone. Maybe that was our birthday due.

Special appearances by Navy and Kent...

But here's what I really liked. When the ranks thinned, some folks stayed, and learned more about how to play 4s in a big pool.

If you're experienced, as some players were, or have some skills, as other learners were, you CAN do it!

Also, gents, 4s and 5s is not where you let off the gas pedal. Quite the reverse--cover more ground, work harder, move faster:

Oh my goodness, all the bad words I'm spouting on this AAR...

We're teaching a certain player our bad habits. Now he says bad words, and drinks beers! Welcome to the league!

For the new people who played today, I have nothing but encouragement. Let's dance! Get me the next time!

If I can have a good day, at my age, it should be open to everyone to be a God for 5 minutes!

From this Chief's perspective, today was a day of fun and joy, which didn't suck:

Also, the season is drawing to a close, so let's do this as much as we can, before the cold makes cowards of us all.

And thank you all for playing today!

My gift to the early bday boys was my presence on their team...9&1 on the day...Thats a lot of winning as usual...And when I am a Captain the record overall is ridiculously high...Captained vs MarSeto...Destroyed that team...2 more Dynasties to add to my record which has the most by far...

But what Im most proud of is stuck around for 4s, and Captained vs a big, and not any big, but the Grape Ape Eduardo Dub Server, and he got 1st pick...Needless to say that after a two pt loss, and a two pt win, we demolished them in the rubber match to 15, and then extended to 21...Scully, TBoney, New Indian, and me w/ the match win vs Edub, Chefy, Kent, and MarSeto...

I only have one wknd left to play this phenomenal winning season...No mo Dynasties til next season...I might go back to sand again tho after ruling the winning % this year, and give some of yall a chance to win more next season...Many should probably spend the off season really analyzing how I make my teams better even while Lipping, and learn to advance our level of play going fwd...See yall BT, and this wknd...

for whatever reason we got drafted to the same team. that was odd.
