count, is that you? you can do better than that.
here's one for jerk face alex commenting on my previous post.
'i'm considering which offense to use for my high school team this spring.'
i think i'm going to implement a 2-1 4, with my best player in a german stlye feldrunner iso in the middle. the deep pairs will work to create space for the quick strike from the feldrunner. Also, by placing my talent back, w/ scorers up front, the transition from zone to man will put my best players in an advantageous position, possibly w/ a 3 on 2 initial break, and covered by teams often less skilled deeps/wings.
the intent is to develop dynamic flow and opportunistic breaks creating rapid strike and and secondary break opportunities. the negatives are perceived to be the same as with all high school offenses. skill inequities that can lead to break downs, especially when developing players are given the disc in 'power' positions.
see, i just made that up in like 1 minute. but it sounds just as real as anything else out there. it used the words dynamic, flow, opportunistic (2x), rapid, break (3x!), strike, offense, and w/ a tribute to crazy frank (power position). that just sounds like something he'd say.
but if you get all moist and squishy thinking about stadler and waldorf (alex and jim) prattling on about their quarterfinal escapades, why by all means frequent their sites. or if you want to read about timmy handing over the america's cup to pottsy and the rest of the australians, go for it. i'm a literary genius, dammit, and if you are too dumb to get it, don't come around here wasting my time again. I mean, did you even LOOK at the first letters of each line of that post you so cavalierly dismissed due to the puniness of your brain?!!! did you!

This is honestly one of the best posts I've read in a long, long time!
in the interest of full disclosure, it was not literary genius that i spelled 'too' as 'two'... merely happenstance... but it works, and i didn't proof the post...
Luke,
I TOLD YOU we should have shenaniganed the Count's face at nationals in 03'.
That "dick."
-blaine
yeah, well, Blaine, the pirate's code was a little vague on that precise point, so i felt the high ground was the proper course.
shiv got censored?
and it's "statler"
I think you should stick with the posts posts about how many laps you ran. or at least have that be your first sentence, because then I know I can skip them when I see it on ultitalk.
...the count's SN is "Alex De Frondeville"...
the type of comment you're responding to is really the most irritating to me as a blogger. We don't post to ultimatetalk, and we didn't ask to be on ultimatetalk, so why the hell should we cater our blogs to ultimatetalk? If you don't want to read a post don't click on the mf link. Why is that so damned hard to understand?

Actually, "power position" is one of my terms.
His full name is Count Alexis Werner Lambert de Frondeville.
AJ, if you don't want to read the comments, don't. Geez, the guy makes one post in 9 months and all of a sudden he's blogking again.
Um, Luke, I mean douchebag, I hope that you will now post a retraction. Note from THIS comment that my full name shows up AS A LINK, not just some tool who happens to be named Alex...
alex, what do you want me to retract, the statler and waldorf comment? was it not I who called you the best slowest player, or slowest best or whatever? sent you pictures of my appendectomy on your children's birthday? most importantly saved you from blaine and giora on the eve of finals?! sheesh. props to alex d'count. there i said it. now i need to go drink some mustard and water.
Ahhhh. Now I remember what Blaine was talking about. Yes, I thanked you numerous times back then, and I throw another prop your way for protection services...
Oh, by the way, in track sprints, anything under 40 yards, I was in the middle of the pack at worst. But I'll take the kudo nonetheles...
well i was always last. but i was always the worst practice player. i'm actually a changed man at 27... i'm actually a good practice player... since i have no more good games anymore...
fyi, for the academy out there, shiv merely announced that he had infact gotten laughs from me when i did little more than drink beer and babble. on another day, i probably would not have deleted his comment
