A few resolutions and the 2007 Big Balls Awards

Happy New Year to anyone that reads this blog and those who might accidentally stumble over it while surfing. Last year was a decent year, i did a lot of great fishing and camping with my daughter and wife , got drunk and started a league at wordsteal one night , and did some other crazy stuff that doesnt need to be gone over lol. For 2008 i just have a few resolutions...

1. Cut down on the drinking binges on the weekends if for no other reason my health.

2. Become a better player. while that is fresh in your mind let me just say that no matter who you are and how good you are sometimes the tile fairy is going to take a dump on you and there isnt anything you can do about it ;-)

3. Get more exercise... again health

4. Coninue finding new and fun things and places to share with C.J. and Cyndi.

Now that thats out of the way lets move on to the awards. Before i start though let me say that if anyone wants to add to the list email me and i will give it front page attention.

Admin of the year...... TheMummykins at Interleague. Mummy is crapped on week in and week out by T.D.s and leagues that are supposed to be supporting her yet she continues to persevere and keep Interleague going. If the people that arent supporting her but should be are offended by that, good!! Mummy ya got balls!!

T.D. of the year....... Lainy at FSW in the hoyle cases ladder room. Wow This lady is the IronTD of wordox, she is at this writing only 7 tourneys away from # 2500 personally hosted by her!! Can we get a Holy Shit chant going for Lainy??? WTG Lainy!! you got balls!!

Player of the year..... Me!! Kes/Perrin After thinking a lot on this one im gonna toot my own horn , toot toot. Wherever i go to play, whichever of the 2 names i use, i come to win. I will ladder with anyone that asks or anyone who knocks on the door whatever room im in and i dont back down from man or machine. Wtg me !! I got balls!! (save the sarcastic comments for someone who cares :-) lol i don't)

Most improved player/s of the year. I have to give props to 2 players this year , First is Just_Fancy aka Pammiek . She has cranked out multiple wins on me, Dorcas and Wordman this year and i dont care what anyone else says she has come a long way. Sharing this award with her is Debbers at wordsteal , she is new to the game but she gives it her best every time, In 2008 i expect to see her crack the top10 at steal. Wtg PammieK and Debbers ya both got balls!!

Best new TD/s... Redberry SneakyPete Bambiella and OxtailSoup. You ladies have taken to tding like wildfire, i appreciate everything you 4 have done to make our league grow , and all the tourneys you have hosted. WTG , all 4 of ya got balls!!

Now for a little fun

The His Bark is worse than his Bite award goes to OldShep.... After the few email communications we had I understand shep a little better. He is like most players , he comes in to relax and get away from stress. Wtg Shep, ya got balls!!

The Failure to Communicate/CoolHandLuke Award goes to Wordman50. After his clash at Extremeox and his initial post in response to his critics he decided to let the rest go drop the matter and ignore his detractors . Wtg Richard , ya got balls!!

RudeSkank of the year award goes to Ceedie. Normally i wouldnt concern myself about this but... When a td takes time out of their personal life to host a tourney, if you join that tourney and the TD puts aside personal differences and congratulates you on individual wins and on winning the tourney if you do, the least a player could do if he/ she is gonna skank up my tourney is thank me for hosting. My opinion of course may not be everyones but im the writer here so its what you get.... WTG Ceedie you smell like balls.

Once again if anyone has anything they want to add to this like categories they want to award on or resolutions they have or award categories they want me to comment on just shoot me an email, i will post just about anything for anyone.

Cya at the tables
