Beales is trying for a 32 player tourney and he has already signed up 20, nice work.
I don't see a Brad Bell listed
I don't see a Gary Ledonne listed.
I'll be signing up... BOOYAH
I might play, $100 is still pretty steep to pay when you think you have little to no chance to cash.
I'll probably sign up tomorrow, it'll be nice to have some dee-nee representation.
Ya hear that JOEDIRT!!!
who is this Mark Bridges character? RBI is really not all that popular in Arkansas.
Mark Bridges kicked some serious ass in C-Butt.
Nice guy too.
Either him or another guy had their grandmother die while at the tourney.
I'll probably bring brand new sequentially #'d 1 dollar bills again to pay my entry.

Im planning on attending again. whatever joe dirt, mark bridges and whoever else thats elite has in terms of RBI ability, i can say that i dont possess the same stuff. and ii havent figured out the missing link to be that good either. so im fucked in an even bigger tourney.
You should fly this tikme, there's little chance that you;ll hit a deer, and unless Payne Stewart is your pilot, you'll pr0obably be safe
I may have to sign up if he has trouble filling spots, though I may be in Ohio that weekend...
i hope your recent vicotry at my expense has boosted your confidence. (i'll also take any credit if you happen to win)
i noticed there is a guy from california competing with the name of gineris.

It would be better if his name was "Gineritis"

Is Gineritis some sort of oozing disease of the giner? Or maybe it's an insatiable desire for giner? Or maybe, just maybe, it's The Gineritis, the overwhelming desire to fall asleep after giner.
did joedirt really stop posting because i called him a cheater and an asshole because he was cheating on Golf? or was there another reason?
EDIT: looks like he also got really pissed at attabobble because he misunderstood the "joedirt - idiot" comment.
attabobble, what say you and i both show up announced at the COTUT and give him a big hug?
Works for me!
I've actually talked to JoeDirt a few times since he left here, I still have no idea what the reason was.
actually i couldn't even go...i have a wedding in michigan to go to that weekend
JoeDirt is gone? I thought something was amiss.
was dee-nee not feeling unscrupulous enough for you as of late?

Are you going to Payne's wedding?
that's jory's wedding, that weekend.
i don't know if i am going to make payne's wedding. the drive will be like 11 hours for me from bloomington...doing that and back in a weekend is a risky venture (not to mention it will cost me like $250 in gasoline)...jory's wedding is a lot closer and i can car pool with people...unless you have some idea to meet me in chicago and then we drive it together...
I'm probably gonna take a megabus to Milwaukee and rent a car from there. Payne chose a wedding destination pretty fucking far from any airport. Worst. Destination wedding. Ever.
seriously, that is a terrible destination...i have been to the upper peninsula before. it is a disgusting place devoid of worthwhile human interaction. take note that i am saying that, bearing in mind that i live in central illinois...
let me the first to say, Someone is going down in a month!

When I lived in atlanta, I was trying to get in the pants of a hot bartender from the upper peninsula. We hooked up once or twice, nothing serious. So when her little sister showed up a month later to visit, I made sure to nail her in the pool at the bartenders complex.
This is all I know about the UP. Hope it helps!!
god bless mike d...
i figured since i entered the COTUT this year, it was about time i hopped onto the forums. who else on here is entered in it?
Unfortunately no current Dee-Nee regulars in COTUT, though many occasional posters are participating
5 days away! I got 1st reserve slot. Going to chicago on friday to hang with Dirt amnd Riles next weekend. Belaes says that every year someone backs out at the last minute. And by backs out I mean hits a deer with his car.
Reminds me, I gotta make a damn CD wishlist. Metal Haven had a decent selection from what I remember from dee-nee fest 06.
I can guarantee you some side action if you don't get in TBT

Tell JoeDirt I said "hi."
im staying at beales spare room if ultimate/gantry or anyone wants a game later or whatever. 847-296-8900 is the hotel #. The room should be under beales or bandur. My cell is five one five-five seven zero-four seven four four. Wont be in till 8 or so. Dirt arrives at 6:30 am saturday.
My schedule kind of blows this weekend, but I'll see what I can do. Have to work tomorrow, plus the Good Brother's beer run to Kenosha, plus a bday party in the south suburbs plus a bday party in the city proper. If I have any chance to get there I will but I wouldn't count on it.
Shit is it this weekend? I thought it was next, I might be around some but I'll have my daughter with me. I'm home tonight but I've got to stay here, if anyone wants to come by you are welcome.
Mike Lobianco, tearing shit up.
So JoeDirt gets drawn with Mark Bridges his first round.
Yikes.
how good is bridges?
and whos better, beales or riley? I gotta root for my boy.
Bridges DESTROYED all comers in Columbus.
I'd have to say that Beales probably has a bit of an edge on Riley.
Did TBT get in?
Talked to TBT, he might have a spot in the late half of the bracket, but sounds unlikely. Also sounds like Riley is about to win the early half of the bracket and will be in the finals.
Riley wins over LoBianco.
riley has gotten to within a series win from playing for the title. he beat beales on the way.
beales is a series win away in the loser bracket from playing for the money.
joe dirt beat previous champ mark bridges in rouind 1. mark is now facing off in the loser bracket. he should win this round easily.
the entrant in question is arriving soon, so i dont have a spot. hung with dirt and riley today and played both at rbi. also dropped 85 bucks at metal haven-woot.
what's the word on dirt's hiatus from dee-nee?? just got tired of it, or what? i want the "dirt"
Quote from: Todd Blythe Time on 06/21/08, 05:51:14 PM

Stocking up on copper, eh?
I just can't make it out there, my wife is out of town this weekend, if my daughter had taken a nap today we would've headed out there for a couple hours around 7:00, but instead she's in bed now
dirt is inching closer to playing riley for a spot on the championship round.
beales and bridges also appear to be on crash course in the 4th place series.
TBG, Dirt quit dee-neeing because of your face.
Well at least he had a solid reason
joe lost game 2 to ronnie cook. riley and joe are creaming thier panties in the elevator about how good this guy could pitch. i swear they were both hard. joe had scored only 2 runs with boston/detroit combined.
game 3 he 10 runs the guy cal over sf?????
dirts up by a run in game 4 right now.

yep, can't blame him there.
sorry guys...s
dont have the compete details as i left at 1pm today, but thru texts from dirt, heres what i got.
Bridges ousts beales in the loser bracket.
Riley send dirt packing to the loser bracket.
Dirt sweeps(!?!?) bridges in a 5 game set.
Riley then beats dirt 4-1 in the championship round.
Joe Dirt has officially buffalo billed it up 4 years straight. poor fella.
Mark bridges extends a warm hello to all in dee-nee land.
Also a shout out to the guy who kept calling him "arkansas" last year. at 1st i assumed it was Gojim, but then thought that sounded more like Malnu.
Definitely Malnu.
Was Ronnie Cook the guy who had his mom die during the tourney?
That makes Riley the winner of 3 of the last 4 national RBI championships, doesn't it?
Poor Jim Kelly JoeDirt.
Dirt second again? Speechless...
This needs to be a main page update, I think, and/or a new banner (although the 6/2 posting was a great achievement).
Poor JoeDirt. You have to wonder at what point he starts hating Riley's guts. I know I would.

No fkn way. I love Riley...he's like a brother to me. Riley was my best man....and I was his. I am the godfather of his oldest child, and I am honored to be so.
Riley is a very good RBI player. I will still go on record as saying that Riley and I are 50/50, although I realize nobody here will agree. That's okay with me, though.
Just wanted to clear the air about the possibility of me hating Riley...such nonsense!

That's great!
Now, why do you hate dee-nee?
I don't. In fact, hanging out with my boy TBT inspired me to check in here. Love that guy, too. He's good stuff. Minus the jar because that's just weird.
for the record, its an old milk jug.
Hey Dirt...you been dancing much?
Because you can dance if you want to.
Well, I have and I haven't.
when it nears time for the 2009 natl tourney in colmbutt, can you not recyle a thread that will be 4 years old.
new threads are free of charge around here, unless you are gino.
Why didn't any dee nee people show up at the tourney? Not even Gantry? For shame. The Godfather of RBI, my ass!

I didn't feel good about it, my weekend was a bit busy. The 120+ miles of driving on Sunday was most dah nah. I should be at C-Butt come hell or high water though buddy...
so does this mean that lara the robot is going to start posting again as well?

I didn't say you hated the guy. I know that you two are very, very close and that's great.
I'm saying that I would hate his fucking guts.
I'd fuck his guts.
well, i havent been on the forums since before the tournament started. but i just remembered vividly now about the tournament ( amazing what a few brews will do to you, especially when youre gettin smoked by OSU). the tournament was awesome. beales had everything organized extremely well, with giant brackets posted on the walls, and flawlessly working games. it was much appreciated. the nature of the tournament was awesomely good spirited. bolda, kranz and I all went out for a couple beers in between games ( even though i beat them!). kranz even gave me a ride. Riley is a ridiculous player. easily the toughest guy Ive ever played against. I got swept, 3-0 by him, but even though two games were determined by one run, they weren't that close. he positioned each pitch perfectly so that i couldnt touch it, but it was still a strike. i got lucky the first game against beales in the consolation, thanks to mr. burks, but after that, i let him slaughter me in the second game after he destroyed me. though he hit a wallzie in the 5th, he nearly no hit me with houston. i don't know how you could show your superiority at the game any better than by beating any team with houston. this was my first tournament, and also my first competetive experience in straight pitch, since my friends at home (like lara501375) usually stick to the straight pitch game, drinking or not. (usually drinking). anyways, cant wait til the 2010 tourny, and if anyone in the chicago area has any doubts about entering, don't. though i didn't place in the money (took 5th), the experience was well worth it, and i had a great time. mark bell sported some sick RBI and Tecmo football tattoos. and also, those previous posts knocking mark bridges? the guy is the nicest guy in the world. had nothing but a handshake and a smile for everyone he met.

I find this hard to believe.
unless I'm mistaken, he was the only reserve, and only one reserve showed up to the hotel. i have pics of the tats on my old cell phone. lemme see if theyre still there and ill upload them. tats include:
all the tecmo super bowl team logos
RBI stadium
RBI start screen logo
If I cant get them off my old phone, have him take some pics and post them

just reread this thread and there is absolutely nothing negative said about bridges, as it should be. he is highly respected on dee-nee and the entire rbi community in general
Quote from: ryno on 02/15/08, 03:08:39 PM

i guess in my drunken state, i took that as somewhat fightin' words towards bridges/ the state of arkansas. my bad.
On the subject of big tourneys... does anyone know whether JoeDirt is planning another Columbus tournament this year?
whether he is or he isnt, I think we are all still planning on partying in Columbus for a weekend.
I know I am!
