hey remind me to pull out my disc out of my car i will put both my
disc in there. they are discraft you gave me a while back, neither one
has been used that much so they should be in good shape. I will
probably not be there Wednesday but will be there Monday.

I just placed an order for another box of practice discs because it
seems like we're short on good plastic at the game.

Discraft has jacked up the price of the discs AND the shipping, so
instead of the usual $5 or $6 I've been asking, the price is now firm
at $7.

Also, there used to be an option for all white discs as well, but they
have removed that option. So we are guaranteed to get some color discs.

I'll post a message on the board when they arrive so people can get
first dibs if they are interested in getting one.

Alright, this has been a topic many of times in the past.

Who is willing  to help host a Tournament here?

What are peoples thoughts on format?

Is Clyde Fant the best place to hold it?

Where could we throw the party?

What should be provided (food/disc/tshirt)?

Most importantly, When?

There is another Hat Tournament at College Station on October 4th if
anyone is interested.

I would do my best to find some player if anyone wants to go. The only
thing is most of the players I know down here are my age and classes
start like the week following this tourny. Just let me kknow it it
looks like we could maybe put a team together.

I should be in town and can probably get a few women and guys if the
degradeables can muster up a crew.

The coed division for Texas2Finger is struggling at the moment, we
only have 3 teams paid, 3 more likely to come, and 2 on the fence.
We could really use 1-2 local teams to come together to convince
those on the fence to make it.
The party will be at Big Jim's Warehouse and we will be serving
dinner at the fields. Get the cleats out of the closet, round up
some friends from your last winter league team, your current
grapevine or Allen team, and a couple of guys from your local pick-
up team and come out to Las Colinas for a good tournament.
How often do you only have to drive 10-20 miles for a good
tournament? This tournament can only grow if the local groups
support it, we have teams registered from Arkansas, Kansas, Alabama,
Texas, New Mexico, and hopefully Arizona and Oklahoma this week.
If you want to see this tournament grow into a South region tune-up
we have to prove we can fill the divisions with teams.

Yeah being there at 7 and starting at 715 sounds good to me. I like
the lights going off at 9 manly on monday because I other places to be
so it is like a timer for me, but I hate playing for so short of a
amount of time. I know also I am one of the latest people to show up
so I will work hard at showing up at 7. and hopefully next week every
one will be on the same page. also I had work tonight so that is why I
am not going out, see yall monday.

Move to Dallas where play starts 5 min after the posted time, you
can play 6 or more times a week, the women are plentiful and young,
the beer is always cold, the sun shines close to me arse, and you
have to woeey more about being last back to get in to play the most
you can before the sun goes down!!!!

Just a suggestion?!?!?

Love Use Guys!!!!

I'm not as worried about the lights going off at 9:00 (shocker!) as I am that
people drag ass coming out. I'm in favor of a 7:00 start time, but shouldn't we

The way I see it happening is we move the time up to 7:00, and then people show
up around 7:30, and we play around 7:45.

Chris says he's one of the worst about coming late, but I feel like he's got a

Well, it is obvious that getting the lights to stay on till 10pm again
might not happen so what should we do. We never get started playing
until after 8pm and that gives us less than 1 hour of playing. I am one
of the worlds worse at showing up on time and I know I am not alone.
This is the main reason we start so late. Starting Wednesday the 2nd I

so i just realized that i forgot to mention tonight again, that I got
engaged awhile back, like in February, i have been bad about telling
people, because i either think nothing much of it at the time or can't
think of how to bring that into a conversation, and i am doing it now
online because i remembered that i forgot and was currently online, so
for those who do not know, i got engaged, sorry i suck at telling
people, just shy about it, all i heard at first was congratulations
but aren't you too young so i stopped bringing it up. her name is
Katee Fontane, and as far as the hey why don't you bring her out to
play, I try but hey. so sorry again for the moth or so delay.
