Just confusing because he mentioned Aeneas who is on the SW team.

[Aeneas]

Yes, I have everyone's email address on the SW team, except rubecube and obs. Those to be resolved shortly. When I have them then I'll send everyone an email so that we all have each others. I even know most of your names...weird. I am all for going to Pete's on Friday, though if I am still mad at officials I may get right out of it and need to be restrained from destroying televisions. (do we remember the last time we played Anaheim? Compare what Phaneuf did to get a roughing penalty last night to what the Ducks did all game) Okay I'll stop now, well almost, I had trouble sleeping after that dive by Liles. I rarley get that angry!!

Back on topic. As to organizing payment:

Central team: Firefly, Cowboy89, and Resolute 14 have stepped up to get it organized. Resolute even offered to pay whatever, whenever, if I remember correctly. Shawnski has also offered to let the first payment slide for an extra week since we are just getting organized.

SW team: have been PM ing like crazy. Every player on that list has made the committment to pay, and I see no reason why it won't be done within one week. So Friday at Petes Peanuts pub is the next oppurtunity. Bring $100, and some form of restraint for me.

SW sponsorship pub: We could try Pete's Peanuts again, not sure why troutman didn't get a response from them, maybe he complains too much (barmaids need bigger ...or something). I will ask Eddie Bo Deans if they want to take on another team. rubecube suggested Rusty Cage, so there is another option to try.

I think Firefly suggested a meet for Friday also, so the central guys need to be PM'd or something. I would rather someone from that unit take on that task....

Sounds good except we drink real beer up here, and lots of it! Not sure you'll be able to keep up, and that would make us as hosts feel guilty!
You know the similarity between your beer and making love in a canoe?
They are both f____g close to water.

[troutman]

I can help Aeneas gather $ for the South team. Did not see anyone at the game last night.

I could bring my $ to Aeneas tonight. Not sure I can get out Friday night (unless we meet at my house, or get a baby sitter).

If anyone is in the NW this week (near Market Mall), I can collect your $ at my office. I would be willing to meet some of you in the SW on the way home from work if we can find a convenient time and place (West Hills area)

[Aeneas]

Troutman's house Friday! Bring your own sledgehammer!

Redvan is also saying 1pm Saturday. Maybe at that pub that Firefly and Captain Crunch mentioned...

We could also try the Sno pitch again this weekend. Not sure what the weathers supposed to be like.

I am available to watch the game Friday night wherever, will also meet Saturday as req'd.

Sno pitch (brown pitch more likely) I could do if it was Sunday

I'll see if I can dig up and old cattleprod....does anyone have those leather restraints and ball-gag from Pulp Fiction? Those would work....then we could call him the Gimp!

I can do Friday.

[Rhettzky]

Also, as mentioned before, if you can't make friday's meet-up then I can meet you downtown this week during the day or any evening in the deep SW (Somerset) to collect cash.

[Aeneas]

Okay...

Payment option 1

Friday during Anaheim game. Either at Pete's Peanuts pub or troutmans house. They are 5 mins apart. Maybe you could just pop home during intermissions to check on them? Place to be determined. Attendees so far: Locke, Aeneas, Troutman.

Payment Option 2

Sunday slo pitch. Optimist park. 1300. I will say diamond #5, because if they get snarly and kick us off, then we go to the school adjacent. Attendees: Aeneas, Flameskickass (dude you need a shorter moniker!), troutman, Locke, rubecube

Option 3

PM Rhettzky and meet DT for coffee. Don't let too many people see the money change hand, might get arrested.
Attendees: Rhettzky

Aeneas.

[troutman]

RinkRat is going to try to meet me at my office.

I could also collect $ for the North team for RedVan.

Office is located here:

I should be able to make Spring Training Sunday.

Attendees: Rhettzky/The Authorities

Aeneas.

Team fees shall not be used to bail Rhettzky out of jail.

And Rhett, I wouldnt go blathering to the cops about CP Slo-Pitch....the first rule of CP Slo-Pitch is: bring beer!

.....but the second rule is to never talk about CP Slo-Pitch!

Besides, if you do have to get bailed out, its far easier to do it here in Calgary than in the Ponoka Mental Institute.

"CP Slo-Pitch huh? Sure, whatever you say Captain Crazy, now get in the padded room."

Like I said, I can make Friday, I can probably make Sunday.

Few things about Option 3, I need to keep the money collecting discreet so the "meet-up" will have to take place in the alley behind my work. It would be akward to call me "Rhettzky" so just say something like "Are you Captain Snow?" then proceed to ask me about the weather. I will be giving receipts but the safest way for me to hand them out would be ground up into a fine powder and handed to you discreetly in a plastic ziploc baggy.

That's excellent. I think we will ahve some laughs and not just from watching troutman field!

[FlamesKickAss]

can i have my number as 15 please, thanks

[troutman]

Logo and hat concepts:

I'm thinking a red jeresy, with this logo, and black user names and numbers on back.

Maybe we do a 50/50 to raise $ for hats - everyone puts in $10 - half goes to winner, half to hats.

I'm sure someone with more artistic talent than me, can clean these up.

Locke is right!
