Another Ultimate Volleyball team

So, we're playing the Ultimate Volleyball Team again.  We played them in the first game of the season, and played pretty well.  There was that whole spirit point thing as well where they gave us a 7; the first non-10 we have gotten in a few years.  However, I noticed in the standings we're back up to an average of 10...Tyler tells me that TUC reset our spirit score from that game.

Last time I talked about my Super Spike V'Ball prowess (which also made it's way into one of The Roman Empire's recent quizzes), but it's tough to compare that to the Top Gun volleyball scene.  Although does anyone really believe that Tom Cruise can spike over that net?

For my own little quiz...what are the call-signs of the 4 players?

A 24 of ale will cover it? Sold!

As most of you know, our old friend and former-Hound Hamid has built quite a reputation for himself as a master-blogger with his site, The Roman Empire. But he is about to become a Toronto-wide celebrity, as his visage will adorn the back of four vehicles in the Sport and Social Club fleet.

For those who have kept up with his site, this is not news. Although, I think it is news that he's going to be on FOUR vehicles...he thought it was only going to be one.

So, why am I bringing this up now, three weeks after Hamid wrote about it? Well, I do have something to add to his story about his picture on the van. At the bottom of his post, he noted: "Hmm, shouldn’t TCSSC be paying me a bazillion dollars to use that photo? What’s that, you say? A 24 of ale will cover it? Sold!"

Well, I showed my director his site (she was away until this past Monday) and she told me to get that man some beer. So, from the lawyers who brought you "The Shinning", may I present to you, Hamid with beer, in front of Hamid on a van.

I'm sorry to say to Hamid though, you totally under-bid yourself. We would have got you at least a 28-pack. Sucker!

Who is that guy?

Ladies and Gentlemen, Dan Thomson, minus 6 pounds of hair:

As we all know, Dan had been growing his dreadlocks for over 4 years, and finally decided that it was time to cut them off, all in the name of some tree-hugging, granola-eating charity. Operation Dreads for Trees was a huge success, as Dan met his goal and then some.

He was finally unveiled on Wednesday as he and the rest of "This is my serious face" taught the Leather Cheerios a lesson in ultimate. It was interesting watching him out there. On more than one occasion, I'd see this guy with short orange hair running around, and wonder who he was. No longer will I be able to pick Dan out from a crowd 200 metres away...

Who do you think is happier: Dan or Lauren?
