Usually like to do the pool on a Saturday afternoon, then segue right into NHIC; but whatever, a Sunday could work.

As to the question about Flames games there: the place was crazy. Lots of jerseys and cheering. Even a table of Canucks fans one night! Locke sent them a round of frilly girl drinks, and troutman said we need them here in CGY, someone has to wash our dishes!

Probably cap the pool at 20 players, live draft (meaning in person!), snake format, lots of sidebets, $25 entry, winner takes all*, derision and sarcasm free and mandatory.

Redvan: Most of SW know who Derrick is. He came out and spared for my other team, Swing Baby (champs last night btw) a couple times, and played for SW vs Swing one night. 4x4 would not know, he doesn't know half our names even!!!!!

I would go into that again....although last year I basically donated my money! I had first pick and wasted it on some schmuck in Pittsburgh who couldn't play all 82!!

I would be interested in going in your pool if you have any room left once the regulars have committed. Don't want to take anyone's spot but I could be at least a back-up plan if someone can't make it.

I held Locke's hand, and I liked it

Sunday the 14th - roll call:

I'll be there, maybe as early as 6:30 to watch the Browns game - come on down.

I'm going to do my best...although I have my sisters b-day dinner to attend ahead of this, so I will be after 8pm most likely.

I might come down for a little bit, if you're going to be there by 6:30 then the odds are even better. But I cant stay for long, maybe a schooner or two....

Ahhh...I miss Sunday Petes....

CLE - PIT starts at 6:15, so that's when I'll get there.

It's going to be a long shift.

I might make it down tonight. I'm in recovery mode from a polish wedding last night. My head aches.

Hoping to make it out, but not a for sure. Lots of homework int he first week of university, what is that all about?

But let's be honest, there's time for a schooner or two.
