Yeah, other than the taste of chicago, i don't have much to look forward to this weekend. Fuckers.
Don't worry Roogs, you are the front runner to host next years tourney in chicago...
I could be up for a tourney in Chicago.
I think it'll happen... Beales hosts the COTUT every two years, hopefully he plans to do it again. This is all assuming that Internet friends can actually be real friends. If I end up crying more on Friday night than during my grandma's funeral, don't expect the dee-nee house to be open for business... Except for CurtFlood's dog
i too, wish i was there with CurtFlood's dog
I'm hoping for something west of the Mississippi.
How about St. Louis? That's as far west as I like to go, I fear change...
New York is west of the Mississippi. Really, really west.

Remind me to never ask you for directions. ;)
fknmclane and I were discussing some sort of a Vegas location for next year's Dee-Nee convention. Maybe it won't be a formal tournament like this, more of a chance to get together and get in trouble. With CurtFlood's dog.
I do make it a habit to mislead tourists who ask me where stuff is. I'm a horrible person.

I do make it a habit to mislead tourists who ask me where stuff is into my torture chamber for some freaky S&M shit before I skin and kill them. I'm a horrible misunderstood person.

Nah, I usually just send them to 170th street and let nature take its course.

Of course, the classic New York joke is when someone asks you how to get to Carnegie Hall.
The proper response?
Practice, practice, practice.

I've performed in Carnegie Hall
It was with a high school honor choir - we did John Rutter's "Requiem"

Remember when Mr OJ corrected me on this? That was sorta ghay.
well, while you fuckers are playing RBI, fucking whores, and drinking craptons of booze, I'll be drinking lemonade, eating winnie the pooh birthday cake, and playing with starwars figures, cars, and trucks.
Happy birthday little ryno.
Chicago would be the ultimate spot for next year, being that by far the most Dee-Neers live there (or near). However, a trip West would be more fair to those out West who had to make the trip eastward this year (or weren't able to). I'm sure the planning will begin soon enough...

Oh my, I can just imagine now. This would be the time of all your lives. It would be a party with chicks and guns and firetrucks and Hookers! and booze and firetrucks!!
it should be in the midwest. If not the tourney, just an annual gathering. And since Gantry started this whole mess, he should be honored on his home turf. It needs to be in a big fun city. There are too many deeneer's around here for it not to be in chicago!!
We'll have it during the gooonyfest weekend!! hahahaha
I'm still trying to figure out what type of music Jack Tripper wrote for a choir. Are you sure you weren't at Carnegie Mall?
Jack the Tripper was a bad assed mo'fo cereal killer.
chicago should be the place to have the annual RBI championships.

Fuck Chicago. Have them in Boston so I don't have to go anywhere.

My wife heard me laughing at a post this morning (fnkmclane's post about the phone call from malnuboy) and asked me what was so funny, so I explained the whole deal with the Columbus tourney (since I knew I couldn't go, I didn't even bother to mention it to her before). I found out from her that a coworker of hers that I played city league basketball with is in Columbus this weekend to visit some family - if I were able to go, I'd have had a ride there.
I didn't enter into any negotiations about attending next year's COTUT... I still don't think it's likely, but I may see if I can swing it next summer. I have an uncle in the Milwaukee area, so perhaps if we can correctly time a trip to visit him, I could drive down to Chicago for the tournament.
I seriously doubt I could make it at all, but if it's in Chicago (or New York, obviously) I'd give it a shot.
