WORLD CHAMPION MASTER KEVIN THOMPSON'S "SHAKILS WARRIORS" COACHED BY AKC

[GrandMasterKC]

[FONTSome may wonder who are they? Master Kevin Thomson has been my Karate Instructor since 1990 and although I stopped competing, his concepts have continued to guide me through life. "AIR"-Awareness-know what is going on at all times. Before, during, and after you enter an enviroment. Intuition-If it feels like something is about to happen..be prepared and dont doubt your gut feelings. React-Proper execution of technique. You may only have one chance...make it count. He is known as the 8th Wonder of The world and competed against men at age 7. He has a history of producing Champions unmatched by many Sen Sei in the world and I was blessed to be one. when I left competition and trained students for 4 yearsI used his concepts and had his blessings during that time. I vowed to always keep The Warrior within me alive and now The Shakils Warriors ar in EF The Rising Sun of hope and possibility is our logo, "SMB"represents 3 elements that must remain sharp. S-Spirit..the way I feel inside. My chi-inner energy M-Mind-Im rested, ready and focused. B-Bodymust be prepared to go beyond the point of stopping. ="Impact"][/font] These concepts have been pivotal to my love ofEf and going on in life when it gets tough That one play in OT, staying focused even when down by 14. Hitting the pivotal pass I want to thank The Legendary RaiderMan for doing my original Shakils "05" and The Incredible Coach Stacey for taking my newest vision and making it beyond perception......

ive often wondered who some of your players were when looking at the many pictures you post(thanks, pics are awesome). ive noticed on your team, i believe the cardinals, some of them have different paint schemes than others. can you give us the scoop on the cardinals you use and why some look different?
i have many teams that way, because my collection is vast, ive got about 29 ram teams that are mostly different, example...shoulder loops or shoulder horns, solid socks, 2- stripe socks, and even 3 stripe socks. throwbacks with yellow jersey, '73 to '99 yellow/blue, 2k1-current gold and blue. most teams have changes in their uniforms, but probably the least changed team is the lions. and to my knowledge, the 2 teams with the most changes are the chargers and the eagles, there are some teams with drastic changes and it makes some people think they changed more, but if you research teams, you can find some interesting stuff. some may know, some dont, the 49ers used to be a gray color instead of gold/tan. redskins had 5 different helmets in a 7 year period. so tell us about your cardinals please.

they are my 4th team based and painted from scratch(not me on the paint..lol) I have figures on the Cardinals from FF.com, BB, HR, F.JBoy, Joey. Fields. paint work by CLM Designs, Joey.F, and The Great Chris Stacey...Importantly I use a combo of athletes from the new Cardinals..when I took on the team in theNEFL in 08..I had to get my team started 2 of my most impactful mentors gave me Cardinals..Coach K-Lo and Coach Ed Roche. I eventualy got the work done aforementioned and 90% of the team was matching. I still use some of the Ed.Roche Cardinals in honor of mygood friend he is still amongst us but took some time away from EF...so while he is away, his athletes still play. I told him that I would purchase them in a joking manner because I purchased my B Jets from him and made them into a highly competitive team 1st season 3-5, 2nd season NHFL Playoffs, 3rd season NHFL final 4, thanks to the various talents of painters, tweakers, and coaches around the USA. Those teams keep me in tune with the concepts Coach Roche taught me about EF and life. This NEFL season and the remainder of the BEFL season..I will go with 100% uniform conformity. The BJets you see are my NHFL team and they have some athletes that blended right in with the Cardinals...however, they too shall be uniform for their perspective season as well. Interesting question Coach and thanks fo asking.
