Hey,
Kelly Tourdot and I are looking for a couple other players to form an ABD team (which is currently designated Illinois 1.) We're more than willing to write a fair share of a packet. Please e-mail me at [email protected] if you've got a player or two in similar situations.
Later,
MaS
PS: If you care about matching player strengths or whatever, I'd say Kelly's a fairly good trash player who knows TV, movies, "other" stuff and current quasi-rock-type music, while I'm a middling-at-best player specializing in classic rock, old video games, important aspects of popular mainstream sports, and other things that more or less never come up.

In the Final Game: Bill O'Reilly's Second Favorite Foursome beat Moonajuana (Illinois) by a margin of 436 to 125 (I think, I thought I had posted this last night, when I actually had the scoresheet right in front of me.)
On behalf of Mike and myself, we'd like to thank our teams for coming to the 2008 Ann B. Davis Tournament. We hope our teams had a good time and we hope to see you again next year along with any team that may be interested.
As always, we're happy to listen to suggestions and constructive criticism to make our next effort even better. Thank you.
