Right on the heels of the Masters comes the Spring's second most favorite golf tournament. Please plan to join in the fun on April 26th and play in Notre Dame's golf tourney to raise funds supporting their wrestling and basketball programs. It will be held at Brown Acres for the 3rd straight year, although overtures from Augusta National get harder and harder to turn down.
Bear Cat and Harry T will be there leading their teams. They have agreed to stick around for photograph and book signing sessions for the first hundred entrants so don't delay.
If you'd like to reserve a slot for you and your foursome, and/or, sponsor a hole with your own uniquely designed sign send me an e-mail for a entry form for you and your team and a hole sponsorship. A good time is unconditionally guaranteed (see Harry and Bearcat for refunds.)
Don't miss out on this fun-filled event benefiting Everybody's Favorite Team. Send an e-mail to lee365@bellsouth.net if you'd like to participate in this day of merriment. Go Irish!

BCB's gonna have trouble not responding to that last line.
First one too.

your post was good, but I didn't know that was a song
Actually, it's a song and dance, which he is wont to do at any opportunity. Then he and Harry perform this most interesting [?] rendition of an old David Bowie song. Amazing...
Be sure to attend our next post-season strategy meeting for an encore performance.

I like this one:
Wrestling is not a nice sport.
-
OK, OK, you win. Sheeesh what grouch!
I forgot about the OLFers. If I can get 'you know who' to propagate', the kid will wrestle for the OLFers.
Just don't reveal any secrets, OK? You win this one.
I yield.
-
Don't forget the Tornado Club. They've turned out some outstanding wrestlers. There's no cost to be a part of this great organization, only nominal tournament entry fees, and the training a kid gets is second to none!
They take ANY kid from the first grade to the eighth. The kids have fun and learn solid fundamentals at the same time.
If I ever have a grand kid (hurry up boy) that's where he'll wrestle.

2:30 it is. Guess I better make sure the ziplock is full of quarters. I invited Mrs. Thornton to join me and witness the carnage that will take place tomorrow at the E.B.E. She has double-crossed me and taken me up on it. She will not , however, be at the meeting.
Harry
Harry:
Leave your quarters at home - Bear Cat and his lovable sidekick, Coach Carter, will supply those. They always have. Don't you remember the procedure? They r a c k, we break - repeat.
-
The quality of the internet broadcast was stunning. I received an excellent image and audio signal the entire time - absolutely no interruption or hiccup. Moreover, the narration of the gentlemen who broadcast the play-by-play was outstanding. I'm sorry I can't remember their names, but they're great. Maybe somebody can post their names because they definitely deserve recognition.
Everyone involved in this fine event between two great programs should take a bow.
Thank you!

Those who missed our strategy session missed an opportunity to meet Big Red Blooded. A hale and hardy fellow, well met.
ijtx (pronounced ige-tix) is far too magnanimous to comment on the outcome of the green felt competition but it went something like: Harry T doing a River Dance on the table.
-
That's an excellent question. He has soooo many. It has to do with green felt and lots of quarters - namely his. He's so forlorn when he loses yet so quick to @@@@ 'em for yet another clubbing.
He just won't take 'run the table' for an answer. Amazing.
-
Bear Cat's nemesis is there.
-
Hmm......I can be bought.......you beat BCB iii /flower.gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid=":flower:" border="0" alt="flower.gif" /> in pool at Merv's on Friday (when I'm there) and I'll see what I can do.
If beating Bear Cat at pool on Friday at Merv's is all you need - consider that done.

Attending my kid's practice sessions has provided me with some of the fondest memories of my life. I attended many, I wish now, I'd attended even more. It allowed me to relate to him in ways that I would not otherwise had. It gave me an opportunity to brag on him when deserved, and to encourage him when he got down. I wouldn't take a jillion for that.
Plus, it also gave me the opportunity to get to know the coaches and other parents. Some, who are now friends for life. In my opinion, coaches appreciate parents who take an interest in their own kid and the program they're participating in. The parent can look for ways to support and contribute to the team, and encourage other parents to as well.
As far as parents, or anyone else, attending the wrestle-offs, that should not be allowed. The best way is for the two competitors to square off with only the coaches in attendance.
All Saints makes a good point about giving the kid his space and time and allowing him the independence to mature on his own. Although, that time will come soon enough. Parenting does not come with a manual, so deciding when to back off is a real challenge. Kids feel secure when they know their interests are shared and supported.

They got any internet at Merv's? I can't make it to see ijtx and bcb but I'd like an update.
Chattcity:
What a great idea! Perhaps we can have a web cam installed for our next competition, assuming Bear Cat can heal quick enough - picture bludgeon. The good new is the docs say his stitches can come out soon.
Other than the green felt thumping, Bear Cat was his usual jolly self. Harry (Mr. Clutch) was in good form which means a double whammy this season for Bear Cat and his lovable sidekick, Coach Carter.
Fortunately, the outlook for this year's Fightin' Irish is much, much brighter.
Why not plan to attend the next event? The web cam is a great idea - Bear Cat might figure out a way to raise some badly needed quarters.
-
Bear Cat:
Your worst nightmare is about to come true. Fast ijtx will be there this afternoon. The word 'repentance' for you will take on a whole new meaning.
Oh, by the way, bring your side kick. He's so classy when y'all lose.

BCB - You've definitely got a claim for damages against whoever placed those ads on your post, but you've got even stronger claims against those posters who've infringed your trademarked spinning flowery smiley face thingy. Sue now and take names later!
Whiskey Joe:
Uh..er...uh, now, I'm not doubting your sage counsel, not one little bit. But wouldn't those advertisers have even a stronger case for damages? I mean, wouldn't you be upset to pay good money for advertising and wind up on one of his drivel, uh, I mean posts?

Surely a sign that the apocalypse is upon us. /rolleyes.gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid=":rolleyes:" border="0" alt="rolleyes.gif" />

Harry and Bear Cat:
As you know, the Irish will hold their third annual golf tournament benefiting the wrestling and basketball programs. It will be held Saturday, April 28th. The tournament has grown since it began and results in a good contribution to both programs. It wouldn't be possible without the participation of suppoters like yourselves.
That is why I'm reminding you two that the Distinguished Official Leadership for Tournament Success (DOLTS) committee will begin meeting soon. You will recall [?] the tremendous amount of planning it takes to put on this fun event where everyone has a great time. Also, the DOLTS committee has openings for new memebers, especially if they like to play pool.
Go Irish!

Harry:
Sounds like we need to convene a Caravan meeting and adjust that attitude. Next strategy session will be scheduled around the golf tournament meetings. Watch your e-mail box for details.

I'll say this in another post, but paagraphs would do wonders for your posts.
Please try to edit your posts before posting. That only takes a second and means so much.

Since this is a light hearted thread, I would like to add to the up coming seminar.
We should add a section on covert cameras and filming. Go to www.supercircuits.com for the latest and greatest concealed cameras. This would have solved all of the recent problems.
All this in meant to be in fun. I hope we can all laugh and move on.
Ron
Dear Mr. Ron:
We spent all aftenoon laughing; and, we moved too. Boy, that waitress was cute!
We welcomed a new member into the fold this afternoon. Mr. Raider 76. A classy gentleman who gave way to the wrong side of the tracks this afternoon and graced our meeting with his presence. He will repent... I'd think.
Let's pull for our Irish!
And my beloved DII teams as well.

I saw it on TV last night. That's a pretty decent shot the dad has. Too bad he used it on a 12 year old kid.
Unbelievable. According to the news, he apologized and said he was embarrassed by his actions. Duh. He ought to be locked up for assault.
Buck is commended for his well-intended remarks that demonstrate a positive attitude and respect for his fellow human beings, his posts, and, the leavening affect they have, present an example we should all try to emulate.
Hey Buck, are you from Chattanooga?

Harry:
Since this NC Cat place ain't on the boulevard, I need directions. Will attempt to get there by round two. If Bearcat tries to get a way, lock the door.

riding a golden cow into church dressed like Lucifer himself then voting Republican
/quote
Uh, hold on. A golden cow? What the heck is a golden cow? What is this? And if it's gold, how could you ride it? I mean, it couldn't walk, could it? Not if it's gold. Isn't gold inert? A Jimmy Swaggert sermon? I can just hear ol' Jerry Lee plunkin' on the ivories. Just don't ask me to handle the snake - or contribute to your hearsay.
Dressed like Lucifer? BTW, how does Old Scratch dress? Pitch fork and a tail? And how does he keep that trident sharpened? Does he use the same trident as King Neptune? Do they share? And voting Republican!! How much more evil can you be!
Wait a minute. Riding a golden cow into church? Bear Cat does that every morning. That's how he gets to the Irish Caravan meetings. Mooooo...

Did I not mention that before? That's during the free tomato juice [?] give-a-way prior to the beginning of the tourney. The dunking both is afterward.
