    Bags in the Cafeteria = theft.........

    #reality

    Edit: I do not attend this event...but my stance is...We provide coolers for the TEAM....as some under priviledged children otherwise dont eat. So instead of someone going without..our Mothers/Fathers coordinate food for our team so everyone eats and doesnt get left out. NO KID LEFT BEHIND! We are a FAMILY!!!! For some kids..the only family they have!!!

    Zam...while the kids put their bags in the cafeteria...perhaps you should leave your purse out there as well....

    We also provide a food table for the boys. Snacks, sandwiches, sometimes hot food, water, granola bars, etc. which we put in the cafeteria for the boys to eat between rounds. No child has ever gone hungry on our team either, nor have we ever had our food table cleaned out by other wrestlers. As for my purse, I confess I often leave it in various places and have never had a problem. There is no reason for coolers and food items to be in the gym.

    Crock pots are fine. I haven't tested the outlets though!!! Eek. Should be good though.

    In the meantime...

    The Brakeman Report has arrived (no word from ACWR on a due date for the Breakman Report though) and The Cruiser Invitational will yet again have a number of athletes competing throughout the weight classes.

    According to my count, we have 24 wrestlers listed in the "Top Contenders" portion. The average spot is 10 with the highest at #1 Sammy Gross (Beachwood). Yeah... He's pretty good.

    195 is the deepest with 4 wrestlers, 170 has 3, and a couple have two with rest with one. Only one weight class did not have a Brakeman-ranked representative and that was 132. Anywho... Line ups are due tomorrow.

    Can I bring someone else's cooler into the gym?
  • cruiser_96
    Now THAT is possibility!!!!!!

    ps: I'll be the guy in gray sweat pants and (most likely) a black or red BE BETTER Wrestling Camp shirt, running around like a chicken with it's legs cut off! No. Wait. A gander that good to cross the road!? ...running into a glass house with cookies???

    I'll be around!

    2 hours to go!!!

    Come on! #Pickupthepace!!!!!!!!!!
  • zambrown
    Time is up, Cruiser. Aren't those brackets up yet? :p
  • cruiser_96
    At lunch. All line-ups are in.

    I will sort and upload under participants upon return.

    Brackets will be made over the next 24 hours. Again, if posted prior to Saturday morning, they'll be VERY loose.

    A new picture will go up soon though!!!
  • cruiser_96
    Participants are up.

    NOTE: These are NOT seeds.

    Also, changes will occur. Three coaches have let me know of a change or two per team, but wanted to fulfill to noon deadline. One wrestle off, another medical clearance I think and the third... I can't recall the third.

    ps: I love the new weight classes!!! (Kidding. I don't love them. Don't despise them, but don't love them either.)

    Looking good, Cruiser!

    I don't understand why Mays is only 1-0 but is seeded ahead of Guitierez...doesnt make sense.
  • snugglyhippo
    Also, Woogan is good.

    Love it when people respond and don't read the other posts. I don't understand how Mays is 1-0 and number 1 seed. READ above these are not the SEEDS. LOL

    I work with people with TBIs, they have trouble following threads. Just trying to help meet needs. Not that new, just don't post often. Now I remember why.

    snuggly!!! You are killing it!!!

    snuggly's good guys. He's one of us.

    I'm on 170 right now. Won't go to bed until they're done. Each coach will get a copy sent to them tonight. Any last second beefs will be played out through an airing of grievences via email. "Hey, we beat him!" "Cruiser, he also placed higher than us twice... just saying." Deal.

    So is the 1st edition of TCI - Brackets.
