Updates and Requests

Today, as mentioned by Mariner Tom, was the basketball match up between the old Attic Quad vs. the New Quad of room 9. The Old Quad feature degenerates such as Ben "English T" Klassman, Harrison "Dirtiest Kid Alive" Leibow, Tom "The Dego" Degarmo, and myself aka Bruce Bowen (I think I play good defense and I love to play dirty and call you a pussy when you call a foul). We were playing a McNugget, a ginger, freakishly tall and mentally impaired man, and a kid who knows nothing about sports. This was their challenge to us and they told us that they would win with ease. Not so fast my friends. Ben did his best Rashard Lewis impression (against the Cavs...not the Lakers) and extended the court with some 3's. Harrison had his gyro ball shot working. Tom broke down the ginger (red heads are not people). I worked my game and helped create offense while hurling up some decent attempts. Overall, Original flavor wiped the floor with them, 4 games to zero. They had us on the rope in game four due to the conversation about "The Hangover". In conclusion, get the fuck out and never call yourselves a quad.

-I have been experiencing an upset stomach lately. Food poisoning? No. White Sox baseball. I think Carl Pavano will win 300 games next...if the Indians play us every day.

-Dougie Fresh requested a Bears outlook. I didn't really want to because it is so early, but he is a loyal reader so I will do it. For the first time in a while, outlook seems optimistic. Sure they didn't solve the defensive or WR problems, but they got a bitchy quarterback. Cutler will be great and they will win hopefully 10 games if the defensive wakes up. The team can win with these wide receivers (I still have my cleats if they are interested).

-Finally, I have absolutely nothing going on during these summer days. I neither travel to the city for work or even work a full day. To kill my time, I have started two things. The first is twitter and my name is joshfeld1 (I am not that creative and toolbag1 was already taken). I am not sure what twitter is (heard it is good for the skin) but hit me up on it. Second is updown.com. This site allows me to virtually trade $1 million and see how I do against the market. I bought Dollar Tree (thanks to Shafal) and Live Nation stock. I will post how I am doing and I would love some competition.

  1. I like how there's a publication that is covering the competitions that are held at Deerfield's Brickyards. Though the "New Quad" gave us some competition, we were clearly a more dominant team. My theory is that we've been a Quad for way longer thus a more cohesive unit. Plus, we're just plain out better at basketball than they are. They clearly didn't know their strengths even though Gingerball-son was clearly telling his team what to do and they still wouldn't. However, I still have to overall announce the PK of the series. Yes, Ben "English T" Klassman was our leading scorer, my Joakim Noah jumpshot was on and Josh "If only I had a 6-pack, I'd be in porn" Feld was putting up some great acrobatic shots, but the PK Award goes to Tommy "Dego" DeGarmo. His leadership ability and stat line was unlike any other. He was the complete player. So, here's to Tommy "Dego" DeGarmo, this year's PK Award Winner. As for the PF Award Winner, that has to go to just the entire "New Quad" Squad. Congrats. Let this be a continued rivalry.
