Default Still buzzin'

Here it is Thursday already and I'm still buzzing from Miggle. I miss all of your ugly mugs already.


It's becoming more and more like a family reunion to me. We gotta do whatever we can to keep this event going.

Until next time -

Default Me too

I was sittin with the family watching Big Bang Theory and said "You know what i was doing exactly 1 week ago?"

My daughter goes "i know daddy, electric football".

RIGHT!!!! But i was thinking more of the happy hour that night.

Go upstairs and i get a text from one of the coaches...
"Man, last week this time we were at happy hour".

ITS ALL STILL FRESH IN MY HEAD!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Thumbs up Been talking about it all week at work!

Expecially 207 for my homies!

Every year I come up to the convention and party harder than anyone else if I can. I play and have a wonderful time. I must say that thanks to Chris Stacey I was able to show up at Miggle without spending Friday building my team or borrowing Butch Carter's extra team from last year.

My friends from work have been coming to this site recently and they are really starting to dig this hobby. So now it is my job to provide them with the proper environment and support.

They are asking how much is Bruce Watt's teams all the time!

Good thing they work a lot of overtime.

I love Electric/Miniature Football and coming close was the icing on the cake. But even in defeat how can you not be happy knowing someone is exulting in victory. Especially if that person (Jamel) is from your league.

Pulled my trophy out the box on Tuesday. Yeah! Short, but not empty-handed.

Thanks to everyone I came into contact with especially my Great Lakes crew. I'm there for you brothers always, unconditional!

Sha!

You know... I barely made it to Miggle this year with all I have going on with my family and work. But my "brother in EF," Don Lang, and my man John Stamm convinced me to "suck it up" and I made it there late Friday. I missed the dinner but I flew in with a vintage 620 and got to the hotel about 9:15 PM or so.

After getting a bite, to eat, chatting it up with Karim and K-Lo, and then hitting the Miggle store I started scrimmaging into the wee hours with Don, John and my new friend AC. The next day I hit the tourney, showed some love to the fellas selling their wares (big ups to my boys Ronnie and Warren for taking care of me with some choice items). Later, before I knew it, I was in a late nite tweaking session with Vince P., followed by a scrimmage to about to 3:00AM with my main man Karim.

The next morning I get up, have breakfast with some other coaches, check out the tournamnent, hit the stores again, and watch the finals between Ken and Jamel. Ken, you know I was rootin' for you man! Wish it would have worked out... but that return was a back breaker. Congrats to Jamel for playing a great game. Hung in there even after being down. Ken was all class as usual and gave a great congratulatory speech to Jame following a tough loss.

Before, I know it I'm back on a plane to Texas and I'm asking how did I almost allow myself to miss such a wonderful event and a chance to hang out with my friends????

Neddless to say, it was the best convention ever and I was sorry it was over so fast. The EF crew has become like a second family to me in such a short time. It's amazing how one hobby can have such a great group of guys.

I agree with Don, we have to figure out a way to keep his thing going.
