Yes he {PBJUNkiE} earned the new nick name but when our little team was doing what is supposed to be doing he got the elims. Great shooting, iffy directional skills. We love you RICH :wink:

sounds awesome guys! Sweet, OSC on the East coast! :biggrin:

I want the whole story on this new nickname thing. I'm guessing it had to be good.

[Junkie]

Here's the whole story. The first few games, Grendel, Keith and I were not doing well so we changed our strategy a bit which gave us an immediate win. After that win we had another game and I was on the left beer can, Keith in the middle and Grendel on the right taco.

All I remember is taking the guy out on my left, Keith getting taken out with the flag and me and the other team’s last guy going back and forth within ten feet of each other of which he made the fatal mistake of snap shooting in the same place twice. Anyway after I took him out, I went to keith who was standing in the middle of the field with the flag (dead) and grabbed the flag. With all the adrenaline of the fire fight and Grendel standing (dead) at the enemy’s base, I somehow lost my sense of direction and took the flag to the enemy’s base thereby handing the other team points for the game and not our team.

Basically to sum it up: Remember the pro football guy who recovered a fumble and returned it to the wrong end zone in front of 70K people? Well, I had this direction problem in front of all the spectators at this event.

I'm pretty sure this eliminated us from the final so needless to say I was quite embarrassed and did my best to maintain a smile and try not to be so embarrassed. Of course, my fellow teammates did what I would have done so they commenced too rubbing salt in my wounds.

Hence the new nickname WrongWay.

Now, on a more serious note. This event was a BLAST! I would like to thank DeepFreeze and Brian for planning and coordinating the event, the staff, and field owners for putting it on and finally, one heck of an outstanding REFFING crew.

Brian Odgers (SCBrian) really took over the reins for this event and everything was very organized and ran very smooth. Thanks Brian! Also thanks to Yolanda for watching the chrono all day.

A couple notables on the day. I watched Bluemidget throw paint by hand (marker broke on field) to try and keep the opponents attention to permit his other 2 teammates to advance and he also ran for the flag but was eliminated just prior to gaining those points. I like to see a player try and help the team in other ways when they are suddenly handicapped. Good job Chris.

Team Brass Eagles. I was highly impressed with this team for the simple fact that they were young ballers who were not intimidated by anyone no matter the size. These ballers did not simply stand they're ground, they advanced through the field in every game that I photoed. Very Nice!

Next, the sportsmanship was unbelievable as you will note in the pics I will be putting online here in the near future. I think I really got some awesome shots so stay tuned...

Yes the tourny rocked! I'm ready for another one. I was surprised how well my team did. Thrid place (10-2)...we didn't even think we would get that high up there, maybe 5th or 6th. I would like to thank my teammates Mike and Brandon for their hard work, dedication and sportsmanship. Team ARGUS!!! I would also like to thank Brian Odgers for keeping the tourny running smoothly, PBC, of course, and the great donations (to tell you the truth we got better prizes then the Brass Eagles). The Has beens for whooping our a$$ the first game, but we got our revenge by taking your walkers and oxygen tanks away for the second game, jk, you guys played great and honest ball. we had a great time playing against everyone. The Brass Eagles beat us fair and square that last game, but i know there are people out there that agree there should be a rematch. Hope to see all these teams plus more at the next pump tourny. Pumps forever!!!


Oh yeah i heard about the Wrongway also. wish i could have seen that, but it happens. just dont make the same mistake twice. Peace out
