things have been crazy on the home front. coaching two hockey teams (one is done, my son's team is in the finals on the 26th.), coaching adult women's roller derby (yes, you read that right), both the kids playing lacrosse, and the massive back log of stuff at work from not having a computer for a month...
i think i've only played once in the past two weeks.
Yes, I'm alive and well. I'm really sorry about the untimely disappearance. Lot's of stuff going on in real life. Kids playing two sports each, coaching ice hockey teams for off season training, and most recently...Women's Roller Derby! No, not me...though that could prove to be a lot of fun.
My wife joined a roller derby league. The league is only in it's second season and has been struggling. One of the struggles is having coaches and trainers to work with the women. My coaching background in hockey and skating instantly shot me to the top of the ranks as an instructor and coach. The tough part was that I knew absolutely nothing about roller derby. It consumed so much time learning about the sport to teach these women what they need to know to play the sport. This, along with my basement being flooded by faulty water heater and having almost $10,000 worth of damge.
To be completely honest, I can't even find the data i had collected as it was all hand written since my computer died while the tournament was going on. The only data i still have access to is what you guys (canned heat, double T, Lou Keymia, Achy) collected for me. I am very sorry this has happened and it's very embarassing for me to say that there probably will be no results for this tournament. I feel about two inches tall and hope you all can understand where i'm at and forgive me for this.
I don't really see a resolution to this unless i could locate the papers i had with three of the teams scores on it. I'd rather not release a partial result, as that wouldn't be fair for those that participated and don't get to see their results.
On the bright side, things are starting to mellow out a little and i'll be around more, but probably not nearly as much as before. I'm still instructing, coaching, coaching, coaching, dad, dad, dad, dad, husband, etc. Hopefully by the fall, all will be right in the virtual universe and i'll be back to my regular position as second fiddle to Church Pro in the post count and putting together some cool events for everyone.
I had all teams' results backed up both on my hard drive and in cloud storage. I took the extra step of having them validated by Price-Waterhouse and crunched the scoring alghorhithim through the Spurious-Fact-O-Meter-9000.
Team 2 won.
You may all now continue to suck it.
Sorry to hear about your basement but the rest of the distractions seem like all good things. Flat track? Does everyone have crazy nick names? That's how we do it here in Jersey. Enjoy!
And honestly, I could give a shit about who won. The tourney was fun and thanks for getting the teams together. If in the process we managed to irritate some uber-competitive assbags then it's just gravy. It wouldn't be a 2o2p tourney if everything went as planned.
No problem Wam, as you as you sneak in a camera into the ladies locker room (and filter out the east german-esque looking ladies) and post the vids all will be forgiven...
And I think if you watch the movie Whip it, you would learn all you need to know about roller hockey.
team two won. congrats to the rest.
i finally got a computer last night and got it set up.
i will be getting them posted in a day or so. i have a meeting tonight, so it depends on how long the meeting takes.
it is so awesome to be back from using that phone to do everything under the sun.
Ssssoooooooo, did the comp finally boot up?
yes. the computer is up.
sorry about the delay and being MIA.

Thanks for the concerns, all is good.
Don't sweat it Wam.

It's all good Wam, there will be some extra t-bags for you next clan night, however... ;)
