    @Orion Bailey needs to be there.

    I was thinking the same thing, I'm ready to go right now, and this weekend too! As long as it doesn't make me miss a Blazer playoff game.

    I think OB said he was not available this coming weekend. But still--assuming I've regained use of my legs by then (being old and out of shape sucks!), I could probably run again.

    At least you decided to guard Hoopsjock, being a hobbit guarding a mountain is interesting. There's a reason Dragon's did the mountain guarding.

    My attempts to defend @hoopsjock were both laudable and laughable.

    I thought you did well, he's a tough guard cause his footwork down there is surprisingly good and he doesn't expose the ball much so trying to poke at it down low is hard.

    Don't sugarcoat it. Just say you thought he'd be a mummy.

    What Blazer (past or present) would you say Hoopsjocks play is like, as far as technique, style of play and mentality?
    just for fun.

    Dragons only guard it because the dwarves gave it up.

    It usually is the dwarves fault.

    I think about this question about my own game a lot and I can never really come up with one answer.

    Sure some of my post moves are Z-Bo-esque (mostly because I can't jump anymore) but I feel like I look to pass more than shoot which is the opposite of his game. I can also handle the ball up top and score off of penetration which is something Z-Bo doesn't really do (please no one construe that to me saying I'm better than Z-bo).
