I am a frog. I neglected to tap Jay Tayloe and Paul McClure for their guest blogging duties. Last week was a blur with all the press that the CSG's have been getting and I failed to keep the mojo going. As a result, the Gentrifiers suffered back to back overtime losses this last week. I am only able to relate what Battle Williford has told me over the phone, but from what I can gather, the last loss (happening last night, 7/30) was especially tough to take.
Right now, we are 3-4 and tottering on the edge of mediocrity. It would be rash, but perhaps not unfair, to compare us to the 1999-2000 Tennessee Volunteers basketball team. We are full of talent, but we have trouble finishing. If we are like the Vols, then Jay Tayloe is definitely Tony Harris and Paul McClure is Ron Slay.
Our last regular season game is this Monday, August 4th at 7:15 PM. We are playing a team that we beat the pants off of last time (Fighting Chandiru) and we need to show up big time to pull out a win. Our wins are directly related to the # of adults above 30 years of age that are playing any one night, so we need you there. I will be posting more as the game draws near. See you there.

Fellow brethren and class warriors, let us gentrify ourselves. If our primary objective, as gentrifiers, is to class up the place, should we not project an image of confidence and superiority? We must learn to finish strong. I have not helped the cause. I figured posting a blog entry could be a a strange and perhaps catharitc way to encourage myself to cease and desist the pwoffing I have displayed in the past several games.
We have a big game tomorrow. I'm not sure if Webster is back or if he ever really played for this team, but I AM sure that they hate us. Come to ball. Tourney time is upon us.
Much love and reverence,
Steed
