good call, that's what I've been trying to get at, just my ability to
articulate isn't that good.

>>Farrell,

>>My point was essentially that always being "on the bubble" for the amount
>>of guys we're going to have makes it important to have the right amount of
>>players coming out. For future reference, if that ever happens I am not
>>going to play with some dudes from the other team. In Dan's words, I
>>think there's a middle ground. I caught an air bag with my head back in
>>October and wasn't out for football for a few weeks, but in that position
>>I would welcome someone who was reasonably athletic to come out and take
>>my place, especially if we're sitting at the 5-7 mark for players showing
>>up and people tend to forget or be late for games. Anybody I've brought
>>out knows we're in this with cash, and they have indicated they are in on
>>any kegs as well. Shawn (for example) offered to pay $10 per game, though
>>it seems kind of strange to ask someone for $10 to play when they're the
>>6th player and it actually looks like we should be paying them to show up.
>> This may be out of context, but when I played college ball, if I had
>>told Frank McCrystal I was too busy to make a game, he would've told me to
>>beat it for good.
>>
>>Derek and Shawn are both great guys although Shawn tends to try to run a
>>few weird ring-dang-doos and hook-and-laddy type stuff which gets
>>annoying. I think this is because he thinks he's paying $10 a game and
>>wants to get his money's worth. I dunno.
>>
>>Regardless, I will be bringing both Derek and $10 to give to Dan in lieu
>>of "fees" so that we can put this entire affair behind us and focus on
>>winning a couple of games and then intoxicating ourselves at a windup. I
>>don't think you actually agree with me 100% because the other part of my
>>point was largely that (for example) I don't remember what you look like.
>>Introduce yourself the next time you come out.
