This is some funny stuff right here... Sound familiar Matt? Oh wait, I am also uninvited and also hoping to get in. Well whatever its still funny stuff. Everyone might not be laughing when I take down am 2 tho...

Before the griping starts, I played am 1 in 2 tourneys in my life, and was closer to the bottom than the top in both. I will be at the table at 7:45, if there is a table at that point. If ya am 2s don't like it, beat me!

Yaaaa, it's true...at least I didn't sit in dog crap at my tourney...although I think you still beat me in that tourney as well. All in all, my playing has picked up towards the end of this season (I blame my poor play in the middle on Dave Feldberg and crew) and I feel comfortable enough to win Am1 tomorrow...

I should mention also that it's not the style that Feldberg did a clinic on that was bad, it was my implimenting it into my game play that took a while to develop...I do throw further and more accurate now.. in my opinion of course...I'll have to prove it tomorrow...

It's because you're used to the borderline gay porn that is MPO smack talk.

But hey, we all need to have our fun and take out some frustrations...

Hey everybody, my dorm at school is having a non-perishables food drive over the next couple of weeks and I'm trying to collect as much food as I can. I would love it if anybody could bring a thing or two. Not asking for anybody to spend any money, but if that can of baked beans has just been sitting in your cabinet and you don't know what to do with it then I would be more than happy to take it off your hands. :lol:


Who let's baked beans just sit in the cabinet? Yummy!!


Ok so maybe not baked beans. How about tuna? Or crackers? Or nuts? Or soup?

It will all go to the Greater Boston Food Bank, not to hungry college kids, I promise. They feed us well here.

It is not going to fill. Paypal to guarantee you a spot, but I think you will be safe in the morning. Any way, it will still cost you $40.

The course is in good shape. We pulled down a huge tree on #9 that fell halfway during Irene. Big thanks to Chauvin,Parslow and especially CoryMort who almost paid the ultimate price when the rope came loose. A large pulley attached to the end of the rope came flying at us and hit Cory in the back..THUD. It looked/sounded bad. Good news, I'm okay.In the end it was Franchi's advice to shake the damn thing that broke it free. The tree top now stands as a monument to Corey. ie; its stuck.

Dave's Dam series is the best thing going, no dues, no drama. Don't be a fool and miss the Big Dam One.

Tough to watch?!?! Tough to keep playing!!!! I wasn't on lead card though because they only had 3 per card but my score was there. If I think back over my disc golf tournament play I think this is my biggest swing ever between rounds (17 strokes). At the Vibram I shot an 82 and then a 68 (14 strokes swing in opposite direction). I can't seem to play two solid rounds!!!!

Great tournament though. I believe Dave runs the best most organized tournaments. He even has water bottles at hole one! He shows all payment info and pays out pretty deep. Great tourney.
