We have two things going for us that the Vikings don’t however -

We are not and have never been coached by Dennis Green or Mike Tice -

that’s a big advantage -

Chris - you and the MN contingent need to make me a sign saying “Whiskeytown’s Seat - ETA 10:45″ - make sure the SC guys don’t let them pull my chips from the table - I think Felicia will make sure they don’t pull my chips after 15 min or seat an alternate there…

if it goes as slow as most Aladdin Tourneys the first hr, I should be in there with no less then 5% of my stack gone - hell, I’d probably lose more if I was playing.

I suspect some sort of Vikings-like performance….start strong…lead for awhile and then total collapse.

SC will win.

change of plans…

due to constant needling by Felicia and your faith in me, I’m coming to Vegas to play -

I’ll arrive about 45-50 min. after it starts - asked CJ and Felicia to make sure they buy my seat and don’t let my chips get pulled - or else I’ll be a terribly sad, out $600 bucks camper

so let’s rock and roll

Knock the team “requirements” down to pairs and the Washington State team of Scott Bush and Easycure would probably participate, uh, after I talk to Scott about it……heh.

It is my sad, sad regret to inform the MN bloggers that because I was stuck on the waiting list till a week or two ago, I didn’t take the appropriate steps to book a flight/schedule a day off to come to the WPBT in a week - I didn’t wanna take a day off work, cough up 200 for a hotel room, and not get in the tourney -

I have given assurances that I will plan ahead better for the next one when it comes - but this one slipped by me.

Remind South Carolina how we kicked their ass in the Civil War - that’ll put them on tilt…

Chris: It’s all about playing the players, but I might as well warn you that I won’t be playing the players OR the cards until about level two. 10am is EARLY! Even if I happen to make it on time, I highly doubt I’ll be ready to play until I’ve shot the 5th cup of coffee directly into my vein. =)

Drizz: Hehe…I agree. See, I’ll just sit back here and play down our chances. All the while pumping them up, letting them think they can cruise to the win and in the end our paleness blinds them to the fact that they’re getting their asses kicked.

It’s all about playing the players. The cards don’t matter when you’re at the level we’re at…

I did take 2nd at the 2nd Annual Grublog Classic… /flex Now I’ll crawl back into my hole.

I think a good prop bet would be “Will Drizz actually win a coin flip during the tourney?”

I see the SC boys going down from New York Yankees like overconfidence. They will lose and lose badly while we sit there with our farmer tans and smile with the Minnesota nice we’re known for.

SKOL VIKINGS LETS GO!!!

BB: Cool. I’m up for that.

I’m just glad I wasn’t involved in the setup, because if I had been I’d be missing a big chunk of time somewhere and I don’t drink _that_ much

Man, I can’t wait…
