On we go.......
So Trogdor was not triumphant in all his majesty this weekend, but he was represented well. For the worst game you ever played go here - http://www.homestarrunner.com/trogdor.html

So let’s talk about me…… my Lady wife and I had, for me, a wonderful weekend. She accompanied me to Crown Saturday and she worked her ass off with me Sunday laying 2500 square feet of sod in our front yard. The woman was kick ass!!! I had a hard time keeping up. That’s what I get for marring a young woman……

Crown… well, I affected the list as I wanted to. Personally I wanted to do better but…… good clean fighting this time around if not the best crown I have seen in Atlantia. I know it’s not my place to judge but listening to the remarks off the field everyone felt the day went well and was won by a well deserving and honorable fighter. Sir Jason.

My hat is off to the Sir Sinclair and Kari for the emphasis on children’s activities. My kids had a blast and feast was fantastic for it. My kids literally cried when I told them it was time to leave. Thank you!!!

Now back to me,,,,, my lady says I’m too nice. To honorable. Sir Bryce says I quit my fight with Duncan, “if he wanted an 11 I should have given him an 11””your shoulders slumped and you quit”. Never truer words. Duke Cuan comes to me at the fence line after my fighting and tells me to watch Duke Logan and the way he lines up to load his shots. WT comes to me and asks “why didn’t you pick Ragnar?” Logan comes to me after the fighting and says “we need to talk” “privately”. On the ride home my lady tells me I’m more suited for service, it gives me more pleasure, she tells me I like the artsy fartsy crap more. She asks me why I go out there and hold myself to a standard clearly not shared by others.

God I LOVE THIS GAME!!!!

Bryce, I was honored to have you close by. Your Lady and child are wonderful.
Other than John you are the only other person I know that seems to see into my soul. I took special care in maintaining my bearing after that fight as not to demonstrate how I felt but I did quit that fight. I hit the man about the head, neck and leg cleanly at least seven times by my count. The last blow to the off side head jarred him backwards. When I struck him, he paused, looked at me conceding in his eyes, and then readdressed me to continue. At that point I failed myself. I did concede the field. There is no other way to say it. My Lady says I should have “hit him harder””if that’s what it takes, then hit him harder”. I was not upset with my opponent, Duncan later came to me wanting to talk, told me I cracked his armor from hitting his so hard, and blab la bla……. The entire time I’m talking to the little guy in my head asking “well if I broke your F*&^($% armor, WHY DIDN’T YOU TAKE MY SHOT AS%#&%$!!!!”, but I didn’t say it. I smiled graciously and said it was a good fight, hope to see you at Sapphire. Blaaa blaaa……. Now, don’t mistake my words. Duncan is a good fighter, he did nothing wrong. I simply failed myself by not giving him the fight he wanted. In that, I lessened his experience in Crown.

I need to rework my mindset. He came to me for a good, clean, high level fight and I got my panties in a wad when he didn’t bow to my majesty. Shame on me.

Cuan, I do watch Logan. Logan doesn’t like to share to much, what he has shared with me WORKs and I use it. WT, I picked Logan for my first fight because he is one of the best fighters I have ever seen take the field and losing to his mastery is no shame. Last Tuesday I went 9 passes with him and won one. If that “one” happened again at crown I may have had a different day. And honestly, I just like fighting the guy. I really don’t know him off the field.


More later……….
