I'll offer my .02. First, I'll say that I absolutely think it would be the right thing to sit Kyle out for a while. If it were in my power, I'd ban him for a couple of weeks, see how it works out on his return, and then in all likelihood end up banning him for a couple of months. Wash, rinse, repeat...

Thanks to Pete, Jen and Pete's parents for doing everything possible to make this jam great. Pete - I think I left a dark blue coat at your house. Don't care so much about the coat right now, but I think there should be a phone and a key in the pockets. If found, let me know? For all North East Amer...

Umm, thank you. A great to see raw, recent footage of real shred by the champ (no artsy shots, no audience, just shredders). You can almost smell the sweet dank of session sweat.

Your revolution is over, Mr. O'Wheel. The perscriptivists lost! Condolences! Seriously though, drill is a useful word in footbag, and I don't even like drills except as skill benchmarks and as, well, drills, in the traditional sense. When they're used in actual shred it seems lazy, kind of a "I've d...

No worries. I understood what you meant, I just felt the need to express my contrarian view anyway ;) Your contrarian view offends me sir. <:x> The noun 'drill' has been appropriated in footbag and means something specific. <:?v What's ur beef? Next thing you'll be talkin about how blurry that dude...

Post or create a vid demonstrating ugly gunit style. I'm not convinced it exists other than as some sort of guilt trip. Besides, the whole subjectivity thing. I'm pretty sure I'll like the 'sloppy' style better if the strings average to be 5% longer. I've never supported the 'Lavers before Gunits' m...

I'm on a flatscreen and this is just as dark for me as on YouTube. Great video though. I found it funny that Matt had to ask when this was from, since he was there. Thanks for sharing Eric.

Damn your timing sucks. I was the only footbag player in NL for years, but I moved to Montreal a couple of months ago. You in St. John's or somewhere else? Anyway, welcome to the forum and the sport and all that. Lots of good people here, so go ahead and ask whatever. I'll be in town sometime around...

I haven't read the book but I thought it was pretty good. I'm not sure how weight can be given to each of a half dozen characters' individual back stories in one movie. The prison cafeteria scene was fantastic. The characters worked well as anti-heroes. The musical montages about the fictionalized 6...

the biggest travesty in footbag history is that the name gaywalk didn't stick. I don't even remember what it was for.

your vids have, for years, been mind melting, jaw dropping shit. clicking your links is a guaranteed good time.
