Burn it Off

my self-inflicted panopticon failed.

yarrrrr

Just realized, i never did introduce you guys to the pirates :) to rehash, this is the second year this team has competed in Hopu, a coed tourney we have here (i think we had twelve teams this year ranging from cali to alaska and neighbor islands). i started it last year because i was unhappy with the team i was on TWO hopus ago because it was too big (21 players) and i didn't get much playing time... instead i just got drunk and eaten by mosquitos 'cause i passed out outside...

so i bean my quest with a core of 4 of my best friends (and favorite teammates) to "pirate" players from every established team we could. we represented them all, some two or three times over. what started as an email subject line became our team name and our namesake. for 3 days straight we play, dress, talk, drink, sing and belch like pirates and it is hiiiiilarious. by far the best time i've ever had at a tournament (sorry uptown local, you are a very close second ;) and oh yeah, i'm the captain so i can play whenever the FUCK I WANT BITCHES!



and just to show you where we play (hopefully makin' a few of you jealous enough to venture down someday...even though i got skied on this disc (tall fuckin' bastards) it's got a GREAT background:



we didn't do spectacular in the tournament...but that's partially my shortcoming as a captain. two games we definitely should've had...but we were playing unlike ourselves and i should've noticed that. true to our namesake, we do best when we're fuckin' balls out crazy, quick passes, swings and a huck. and crazy D. we defeated our deep game thinking we should be "chill" when we should've been anything but. pirates are not chill.....

BUT, now i know. better luck next year.

WHAT BE YOUR FAVORITE LETTER.....?

mine is ARRRRRRRRRRR!!!!!
