One word: Trivia. For those of you who have never played, the general premise is that teams compete in order to win a montage of prizes and or free bar gear. They answer a wide range of questions, and the use of cellphones is strictly prohibited (unless it is to text a bittie. See rule 6) Tonight in Old Town was no exception. I was amazed at the ability of other teams to crush the team of David and I in random trivia. More than the other teams, I was most amazed at the ability of this one guy who clearly defined his life by the fact that he could answer random trivia questions on a Tuesday night (he was flying solo at the bar). From a coaching standpoint I feel as though the best way to succeed in Trivia is to have numbers on your side. I think the more people you have, the better your chances will be. That aside, and the fact that we came in last place, we still got some free shirts from the bar. I don't know if they felt bad for us, if we were that good looking, or the fact that the trivia only rolled 30 deep. Either way, it was a pretty sweet deal for the entire night. Note to self: A dog was the first thing the Russians sent to space. Her name was Laika.
Mark, you are using aggression to vent your frustrations here. Obviously you wish you were as smart as the lamo loner who got all the answers right. Personally, I think you need to take a step back and think of other ways, such as running, to release this aggression.
