Repaying my sleep debt
Thursday, July 05, 2007
As Jason alluded (to?), the team returned unscathed (and unvictorious) from Montreal with a 1-4 record. While I didn't return with any pictures of the event, a good time was had by all, and I most definitely did not come home with cracked ribs or debilitating injury of any sort. So yay for me.
We came out ranked, uhhh... okay, so I don't know what our final ranking was, but we surely did not uphold our bizarre 9th place initial ranking. But since I don't have the actual numbers on the tournament, here's a little weekend math for ya:
- Number of American teams played: 4
- Number of really bad losses: 1
- Number of close losses: 3
- Number of convincing wins by Scotch: 1
- Number of averted blowout losses: 1
- Number of shots of scotch consumed by opponents: 10-12
- Number of gracious moves by our team, which did not result in any manifestations of gratitude: 1
- Number of pasta places* visited: 0
- Number of bacon-cheeseburgers consumed: [suppressed to meet the requirements of the Speak Into the Mike confidentiality policy]
- Number of plates of sushi consumed: 1
- Number of free hotel breakfasts consumed: 1
- Number of bananas consumed: eleventy million
- Number of long, overnight drives home: 1 (includes: 1 Red Bull, 1 gas station coffee, <1>
Next stop: the Canadian Ultimate Championships in Toronto (in August)
*TLW tells me there was one on Maisonneuve, Jason. Right by the hotel. Why don't we ask our wives these things?)
