Vacation is over and it is time to get back to the grindstone. Phil and I had our first practice with another team. We practiced against Aaron Watchfogel and Mark Williams. This is a new team with a lot of fire power. Both of them can bring the noise and both are exceptionally good passers too. They have very potent jump serves and can diversify their offense with both of them being able to hit on two. Aaron is playing the left side and is right handed and Mark is back on the right side and is left handed. Reminds me a little of when Dax and I played.
It was a good first practice for Phil and I as it was good to get some of the rust off. We sided it out a bit with them and played 4 games to 21. Phil and I won all 4 but they were good games. Everyone was a little rusty and it showed in all the little things. All in all I was happy with how we played but recognized we need to improve on some things and continue to just get back in the swing of things.

and the journey begins.......
Todd,
I've been hearing the rumors, and I read Rester and Jewell's message they sent out. How likely is it that the AVP really is going to cut down the teams and split the tour? And if it happens how would new teams go about qualifying?
All right Todd..Take Care of Business!!!! You need to keep Phil motivated and should remind him that it can all fall apart at any moment if you dont keep working extremely hard all the time (see 2007 New England Patriots). We want to see you guys on the top of that medal stand this year and will be pulling for you guys in every match. Here are some movie suggestions that you can show Phil to keep him sharp before big tourneys:
Vision Quest
We Are Marshall
Hoosiers
Dodgeball
Youngblood
The Fish That Saved Pittsburgh
The Natural
The Longest Yard (original version)
Yes it does.
Tim- Will blog on this a bit. I think it is now very likely they are going to cut the tour down to 16 or so teams.
Will do Scott. Just saw Vision Quest last week. My wife's favorite movie soundtrack of all time. Right now Phil is looking very good and very motivated. Everyone is always motivated about this time of year. The trick is to motivate in June and July before the Big One.
