Bump

So here's the deal. I have 110 posts on the bboard.To my knowledge i didn't know there was "post stuffing." I mean isn't anything written in a forum to some effect post stuffing. I understand that if someons is just saying "k" or "hahah"or "lol", then they're just bullshitting posts and their total count, but as far as i've known i haven't been that ridiculous. There are maybe two that i actually think i have to take credit for, and one was because Brad asked if there was a cost difference to our two spring break choices, and i came along and just said "Jake says they're negligible." I realize now that he probably could have read the forum to find out the answer to this silly question, but i responded. Another one i did just in spite of this nonsense, the post i responded was the following:

Ben_Ristau wrote: It's polite and cuts down on bboard clutter.

David_Lionetti wrote: But then how can you possibly expect to artificially inflate your post count?

David_Vatz wrote: Good point

To which i eloquently responded "bump." I mean come on. HILARIOUS!

Alrighty, now that i've got that off my chest. I've been kind of aggravated considering i haven't been able to run or do some of the leg things with the team. I've realized that i need to heal up and that i shouldn't push myself just because i want to do something. Meaning, i shouldn't force myself to run, if i know I'm going to hurt myself, just because i need to get into better conditioned shape. So i've done a vast amount of abs, which is doing my good and i've been throwing plenty. The ladder is great. My backhand has finally come to be a respectable throw and my huck is actually really nice, both backhand and flick. Needless to say i've been working my ass off. I do the nine minute abs routine a few times a week and i do push up regularly. I don't know how everything is going to fall into pieces, meaning my season and my workouts, but i know that if i just keep working throw, rehab my groin, get to full speed, that everything will workout one way or another.

On another note, i've had this reoccuring... sort of... horror moment. I don't know why, but i know that it's not true and it's literally never going to happened. I have this ridiculous idea, possible because of my lack of playing in along time, that i am going to suck REALLY, REALLY bad. It all boils down to me being like completely incompetent, the horror scenario. It plays out something like this: D-line, running down the pull i am totally out of breathe and can barely run down, my man is fast, deadly, and smart, and i can't touch him, and to top it all off i get lay out d-ed a whole bunch. The thing is, the last time i played was at the UNC tournament, i was injured and i couldn't run, i was half dead, and was not prepared for good defenders, so i just got wiped all over the field. Me and weasel had talked about it after the game; i told him that i felt like the rookies that got to play all the games on Saturday (of the tournament) and contribute in some minor way gained an abundance of experience and knowledge about how good the teams were. When i jumped in half way through the quarter final game on Sunday i was totally out of my league: and we were playing some chump team... I've realized i just need to scrimmage and play my best and hardest during practices and tournaments (for the few points a may play).

Finally, jerseys. I'm a big fan of Nick's designs. I loved the Pitt man in the block lettering, i thought it was a really good idea, but apparently it's "too busy." Well at the moment our jerseys are too boring. The deal with the colors, as i had told the Bird, was i was going to vote for blue or gold, it would be together, and if i was going to vote for white and black, i would once again vote for them together- but to my surprise it came out half and half, which may or may not be bad. We're also taking a big page out of the Sockeye book. Currently it looks like we may have numbers on the front too, which i am a proponent of and think looks very professional; along with that there are the sick shorts which also seem vaguely sockeye-esque. Overall i am a big fan, and i can't wait to see/wear them.

It's like i told Charlie, i feel like we're a team right now, but when we get our jerseys we ARE a team.
