So games would be on Sundays for sure then? If so, I'm 95% sure I'm in.

Played in the new gym at NSD last night. It is about 40 feet longer than the old one and 15 feet wider. Surface is crap. Big cracks and the ball jumps when it goes over them.

I'd be interested but I told myself I'd never play at Currie Barricks again. It's like playing in an elementary school gym...from 1965.

However NSD is a different story, does anyone know for sure which venue it is at? I know sometimes its multiple veunes.

I played in the GHL last year and our first game was in a full sized arena in the NE, every game after that was at the Currie Barricks Gym.

yeah, played there last wednesday. There's these diamond shaped things (about 3-4 feet wide) in the floor that had a different surface on them. Slightly dangerous if you running fast.

Floor is a little slippery as well.

We need a confirmed roster in the next couple days and start collecting fees so we can register. If you can make Sundays and roughly 80% of the games we still have spots.

So I've heard back from papi and he's got other commitments, so he's a no go for this team.

We also need a team name. AC, BurningYears and I joked about team names, and keeping our team logo simple with as many straight lines as possible. So far we've come up with Team Pound (#), Team Meh (=|) or Team Extremely Exciting Line (-).

So if any of you have suggestions for team names, let us know.

Not that I'm aware of, I just think it'd be hilarious to have something really, really dumb.

Why not just be the Puckers. I'd be proud to wear the CP name. It would make us unique instead of just any other team.

In the vein of the various punctuation marks we were joking about, I present the best one of all:
