AWVP

That's big boy day...

Small ball worked poorly today, and it has to be very on to win. Chemistry missing. I blame a couple phantom players--Backtome could not be found, and Datbeyou was everpresent!

Which means that the bigs were loose upon the land--Triple D quadruple dominated--Dub, Dan Dwayne were rarely stopped at the net, although Dan's turbo palms were out of calibration today--no psalms for palms!

Johnny football, I mean volleyball, aka Attorney Scott, showed up late and in rare form. Added to the pound town earthquake.

It's about time the bigs ran rampant. I salute you--now get off me!

Wrote a song about it--wanna hear it, here it go:

We were able to count to 12, today. Enough to fight with, and a nice start to build a league on next season:

Nice robe, Cyrus! I had one of those once...

Since Jess keeps trying to tell me how he is superior to me and my opinions in water volleyball, I hereby declare myself as the worst player in the history of the universe.

From now until eternity I shall be considered the worst performer in the sport of water volleyball and I wish to never be considered in an analysis of the skill level hierarchy of water volleyball players.

I have seen the fnord and may the panda be with me.

Great! I received a barrage of nasty texts from Jess last night.

Apparently I am a hater and a fag wanna be ball hog. I need to get with with times. He rules. Every time I play him he wins. I should get used to it. I must kneel to sod. He is the supreme. Like it or not.

I'm not sure if I'm a fag who wants to be a ball hog or a ball hog who wants to be a fag.

I guess this is all because I said I think Mikey is the best player, and I won't let Jess drink in my car. Oh and I think we shouldn't push it at Deerfield anymore this year.

So now I'm a fag.

I demand to be known as the worst player in the AWVP.

I suggest a new award: LVP

Don't even try to say I'm not the worst, or Ima gonna go ape shit on yo ass!

Oh no, look what you've done. Made me agree with the gist of what the Lip is saying once again, and disclose the philosophical secrets of Zen and the art of watervolleyball.

Once the Mexican Lippy mask is removed, LJ is one of the wiser commentators about this game--so was T2, so go figure...

His persona is offensive, but his comments are generally correct. I would agree that Jess needs to make some alterations in his game--don't we all, but he's been stepping up quite a bit when it comes to the playoffs. One thing LJ didn't mention, he doesn't tolerate scrubs very well, and loses interest when you got a day full of em. That can take the stuffing out of just about any player. Moving on...

This is the reason I was able to exist, and can still exist in any fashion on an obstacle:

There are different rules in water than there are on land--some land rules can be bent, others can be broken.

To get to the particulars, water is your friend. Gravity is less of a factor, if you do it right--don't step like you're in peanut butter, lay out--fly, be free!

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=k9Nh0Fvoe9k

And, you know what happens to me when I use my water skillz on land? I look like I have bad footwork and hit the ground with a giant thud!

But we're talking about water here, people. I just saw Tbone do a diving fallback hit today, and he's not going to be confused with a ballerina.

Some people do these moves, many do not. I'm one of the better tiny dancers out there!

Let's go to weaknesses. For many years, I wouldn't try to go up to block at all. I wasn't good at it, and would just turn to try to field back row digs. WRONG! Even if you can't jump, you gotta go up. Makes the hitter think, may take away at least one lane, and every once in a while you get lucky. Something I had to learn, and take shame every time I fail, which is like 80-90% of the time. But I keep running the jump program, dammit!

So, in terms of my longevity, don't listen to LJ--he's a poopy head, who doesn't like cheese!

But, for the good of your game, and THE GAME, and the league, DO listen to LJ--play every down, and be willing to jump, fall back, and dive on any play that requires it.

Because at least some of them do, and if you don't, ball hits water, and the play is over. That's not something anyone wants to see, am I right?

Last night was 4 on 4 except for that first game with Misty and that other dude.

Dan, Chief, T-Bone, Dwayne vs. Lip, Lloyd the Tin Man, Jared, Mikey

I think that other dude, who exited the game to take a phone call, was the same dumbass who showed back up and grabbed the volleyball and wouldn't give it back (during a game...burning limited daylight). We started getting out of the pool and coming at him. Eventually he gave it up.

Never seen a jackass quite like this guy that takes the ball from us.

that was weird.

i thought 4s was fun. i enjoyed the open lane to spike. it was hitters paradise!

dwayne, dude, you gots to chill. you argue more than anyone. everyone just basically let you have every call towards the end as they were tired of hearing you yell. i won't consider that a noble accomplishment.

i am game sunday, assuming it isn't raining all over this mug

Actually we have seen something like that before, at Argosy.

There was one day where a guy showed up in street clothes wearing a backpack(!) and started insulting a pool full of 20 people.

Never seen him before, didn't know him or owe him--not a resident that I was aware of.

WTF?

And yeah, people didn't much appreciate his opinion and started getting out of the pool.

I did what chiefs have to do--I thanked him for his input, and encouraged him to leave. He figured out I was the "cooler" and told me to F off extra. My answer, "Thank you, keep walking...."

I'm not crediting my abilities here--no doubt helps when you've got don't mess with big dudes backing you up.

But I do remember what I told Jethro, which he didn't understand, but maybe does now:

A confrontation that leads to violence doesn't help anybody--us pandas least of all. I'm going to this guy as the cooler, hands down. That's a risk. If he pops me, feel free to drop him. But we gotta try my way first.

We did the smart thing at the end of WW and all left together, because those fools were still lurking in the back corner.

I'm nothing if not careful, and so was Tbone.
