As some might already know, the Nixa head coach had a heart attack; so, are they still holding a tournament?

Isn't their coach a (relatively) young guy?

Apparently, they are still having a tournament, because Viburnum is going. I should be there as well. Too bad we won't have a chance to repeat the awesome match we had there last year.

I would hate to see us go up against Savannah because we would be killed. They may hold me to 2 tossups.

If you have to run into them, make sure it's the finals. At least you'll get a trophy.

Quick trivia point: all the gold medals in Athens were actually silver medals painted gold.

Yeah, but Savannah kills just about everyone they play. It would be a good learning experience for you.

True but it isnt a good way to learn when you get killed 500 to 120. that just flat out sucks.

That's someone I haven't seen for a while. The man, the myth, the legend... Suebee.

P.S. "Suebee" is one word.

Oh well. I may go anyway just because I don't have anything else to do. You've got to start emailing coaches a little sooner.

The email about "Have Mrs. Raulston email Bill"

And as the list of emails was like 5 pages long, I don't plan on typing the entire thing up.

I don't think we even got an invitation to the UMR tournament. I'll have to ask my coach.
