    'Course, HCP didn't actually bring up his job or any stories from his military service; simply said that while in, he was trained to work through injury, the minimum level of information relevant to answer the question he was asked.

    Oh was this aimed at me? I just answered dviss’s question. I didn’t realize I was “bragging”.

    That is an interesting reply. My post was in response to what Tortured had said, concerning war stuff. Did I reply to HCP? Did I say his name?

    I did ask HCP a couple questions two hours before that, that he partially answered. He was a MP. That's cool. I even liked his reply, before I made my post.

    TBF's post was about players talking about war; you switched the focus to vets talking about their service. Considering your prior post in the thread was responding to a vet who had mentioned his service, and that you deplored those who brag to boost their egos, my inference was fairly reasonable.

    Why aren't you on an elite bracket team?

    Same reason I'm not. It's more fun to represent the forum and even if you were allowed to be on multiple teams there is an almost certainty that there would be time conflicts with game schedules.

    Ok, with $1000 to the winning team that would be all the incentive I would need.

    You have to pay a decent amount to enter that division though whereas the media division is more about having fun and representing who you're playing for. There were teams last year that all 4 guys had played D1 in the elite bracket. We could hold our own in that division but probably wouldn't win it as it's really tough. I know the guys from several teams in that bracket most of which are around my skill level and they got their ass kicked last year.
