Hilarious. I’d add an informational pamphlet that explains the difference between a fire up thread and a game thread along with mandatory disclaimers we can add to avoid any confusion.

Is this on a Zoom or in-person? I can’t do a Zoom that long. Will there be a Cliff’s Notes version available? I’m tired. Good day!

Also, we should probably touch on the parliamentary procedures for selecting a poster to create a game thread (based on season, opponent... current status of poster, etc.).

As an administrator in public schools, it sucked a lot. In mid March, the weekend the tournament started we always had an Asst. Principal/ Athletic Director meeting from Wednesday through Saturday up at the Grand Traverse.

Banquette was Saturday. Bull shit conferences were Wednesday through Friday 9 a.m. till 5.

I was doing the admin thing for about 12 years. How many of those meetings from Wednesday through Friday do you think I attended? Same answer as how many points we scored in the first 10 minutes of the second half last night.

Mix in a little real estate and you got yourself a “free” seminar at a hotel by a major airport.

Tournament time swillers. 

We've had a few mental lapses this year. Time to focus. To make things easy, we are shorting up the playbook. No pregame hype threads. Many get confused and it fucks shit up. No 2nd half threads. We win as a team in one thread and one thread only. And fergodsake if you don't see a tOfficial Game Thread, start one. Don't post in some rando thread. Other than that, if you're feeling it. Start it. Simple as that. One thread. 

If you have any questions, please refer to the tOfficial Swill Game Thread Manuel located in your welcome packet, which you received from tGreenway when you registered. Or refer to your seminar notes.
