From Sheetz:
Brutal write up BKW. It was close, 13-12 the second game! Matro was
worried, I could tell. It was 4am though, and called on account of
sleep.
Looking forward to the Tourney!

From Mike:
Andy, nice Lotus...Boston sports teams still suck. We should go back to that casino just to see if we are on their facial recognition system.
Kaino, Heather and I have had 2 practice sessions and John has been en fuego. This could be Matro and John's year. Look out Vegas here we come.
See you guys Thursday night.

From Field:
Nice pics. When did you get the Lotus? And what was percentage
increase in your girls-bagged-per-date when you traded the FX35 for the
Lotus?
I'll miss you guys in Vegas - but I'll drink some good beer for you in
Germany.

From Wildman:
Field,
While you are there, scope out Germany Bier Gartens as the HQ for an international Beer Pong Tourney... ;-)
********************
From Field:
Ja, vill du. I zink zat's a vondervul idea. Perhaps ve kan also arrange for zome of ze frauleins to keep our biers filled up.

Das ist Sehr Gut. Du Must sprechen mit die Madchen und sagen, "Nihmt dein hand von meinen bein du Hairy Graffe!"

From Field:
Wrong weekend, Wildman. That was just the beginning of my comeback. Besides, I "dumped" the beer (your words) only because it had gotten warm and stale (no one was able to sink me) and I wanted to replace it with a fresh, cold one ;-)
********************
From Kaino:
So what country are you going to go hide in next year Field?!?
The lengths that you and Amish take to avoid competition is impressive. Perhaps a winter pong event at a Schiplatz ist in Ordnung so you guys can regain some honor (You too Mr. X).
I will personally make the calls to the women to see if you guys can get your balls back for a weekend.

From Field:
Memories fade, apparently quickly in your case, Kaino-san. Schedule another weekend, and I will dominate the pong table again (and then promptly go to sleep).
********************
From Matro:
Only a lawyer could interpret the facts in such a flattering light. The truth is that Field needs Baker at every tourney to make him look good (well, better than usual). Since there is a tourney coming up at Amish's sometime in the fall, we all expect the newly resurgent smack talking Field to make an appearance. That is if he can sneak away w/ his balls in the mini-van and get to the airport.

From Baker:
Actually counselor, you have it reversed - I need Field to be at any given tourney to make myself look good...

From Mr. X:
OK, that’s enough… here’s a friendly word from the darkside…
Give me enough advanced planning and I’ll be there Kaino. It’s getting bothersome that folks like Wildman feel the privilege that they can talk smack over superior players because they find the time to fly to Vegas only to lose in the first round (and they don’t even get drunk losing… go figure). And for us married and busy folks, 3 weeks of planning over the summer is not enough time. Soon enough, I’ll re-appear at a tourney to defend my honor.
BTW Herr Field, don’t be sticking your weinersnitzel anywhere around me… god only knows where it’s been. Have a great time in the fatherland.
I know you all thought I’m dead and gone, but on the contrary…. I’m polishing up my skills as we speak. I’ll be seeing Rob Morris tonight and will schedule a little mano-e-mano match before he becomes a pappa in September.
Over and out for now…
Yippee -kai- A mo-fo’s

From Wildman
Mr. X,
You've known about Vegas for years and have had plenty of time to attend since I discovered this Tournament originally existed in late 2001. You continue to diss. Your situation is no different then mine - family, hard work, so we cannot pull out the violin for you. Not to mention your salary is probably astronomically higher at this point. But Mr. X has yet to persevere. To be fair, though, there are others who certainly have a worse attendence record than you, but they have rescinded their smack talking behavior.
Speaking of Vegas... if you attended, you would realize that the game is quite different from our Beta Rules. With no saves allowed and a 30"+ net, I had to evolve my strategy from world's largest & most intimidating paddle to something more traditional over the years. The result is the Hendu/Wildman record continues to improve each and every year. The Kaino/Matro team has also risen to the challenge nicely and does a good job at representing the Betas. This is my 4th year and Matro/Kaino's 5th. When you attend that many times (and not just once), you can resume to global smack talking abilities. The question is will you ever step up to Field a team? (Pun Intended - Or will we hear more rhetoric?) There is no question - - you and Hanna are solid players at local tournaments, but any discussion beyond a local claim to fame really doesn't count now does it?
In light of all of this, you are right about the fact that I will continue to smack talk until I retire like you have.
-Wildman
P.S. In the great words of Jack Torrance, "All Work and No (Pong), Makes (Mr. X) a Dull Boy..."

From Oompa
Wildman - is the Vegas Tourney always near the end of July? Since you are a regular now at the tourney convince them to move it to another month, because as long as it falls around junior's birthday there will be no Oompa making the push. Let's try late Aug.
I read your note about the Vegas rules and how hard the game is compared to Beta Rules.I distinctly remember dominating at Kaino's Tourney in doubles with Vegas Rules. So either the Beta Vegas contigent needs more practice or its not a very hard game. Put the ball in the cup. Even Matro can do that.
Mr. X - I guess we need to figure out how to make this work somehow in the future. I am tired of all the whining from those Betas who go every year and come back with no championship. If they just won once I would be so proud of them, but I fear they lack the proper skills to succeed.
