Okay guys, I have been thinking. Going to play pick up in stl is real fun but I want to take some of our visits to the next level. What do you guys think of doing Missouri Team Play day once a month, where you come as a team and play as a team vs. Other missouri teams? We could do it in stl and hold it on a day that isn't regular pick up to avoid ruining pick up for people who just want to do that instead. Each team takes turns calling a game against whever they want, and we can give eachother pointers, show eachother mistakes, improve eachother.

Fourth place isn't going to cut it for me this year and I think this would be a rad way to take it to the next level as far as competitive missouri bike polo is concerned. I want to fuckin' win and I think if we wanted to start doing this once a month, those five or so training sessions would e invaluable to our teams.

Post if you're interested and get your team ready, it'll be dope!

I am in.

I also like the idea of trying some CoMo/STL team combinations that could be elite forces.

This is a great idea! Can STL come here too? Cant afford to go to STL once a month or I would, for sure. Set up some dates for the next couple months so those of us who have grownup or non grownup jobs can ask off now!

I'd like to plan on doing this on the weekend of February 4th-5th. I'd like to go to STL and bring our goals and play at mt pleasant.

Ben I think you're the only one who reads this so can you ask some of the people with teams in STL (if there are any?) if they'd be down for doing this one day? Also, if you would like to spend some of the day mixing up teams that's cool with me too, I just really want to play a couple hard fuckin' games with charlie and timmy.

Let us know, thanks!

Tim and I will be in STL the weekend before the 4th and 5th. So we will pretend that you planned for that weekend! Cant make the 4th or 5th, both of us have work we cannot get out of. Not positive about Tim being able to make it just for Saturday... Doesnt really matter for my team since it's hard enough to get all 3 of us at practice, in town, on the same day, at the right time... We would plan for STL and all wind up showing up at different courts, in different years, in different universes ;) AIMEE BETTER GO TO THE LOCKIN!

I don't intend on traveling that much for polo this year, but you can count on me whipping you chumps into shape from here-on-out. Make sure to bring plenty of bandages for your blood and tissues for your tears...

If we went up for the day it would be a lot easier I can't afford to take off the whole weekend after being gone a month.

Day trip, for sure. I'm losing enthusiasm about trying to force this though. I don't know... we'll see I guess.

Trying to force this?

We pick a weekend day that works for us and STL each month. That's only one day a month. Twelve days out of 365. That's about 3 percent of the year.

If nothing else I'd love to have weekly matches on like Saturday or something of Lil Wayne vs Jump Farts, just for training purposes.

I would go Sunday morning as well.

While I do enjoy going to STL, getting smashed, waking up late and playing sluggish, nauseating polo on Sunday... it's hardly training.

I want good games, let's go Sunday!

If you can play polo while being horribly hungover, you can play anywhere.

Ultimate training.

(Not seriously recommending this)

It's supposed to rain this weekend. Mt. Pleasant is a sheet of ice when it's wet. I'd recommend skipping the trip to STL this weekend. We probably won't play on Sunday.

Also, we only have cones at Mt. Pleasant. So if you want to bring goals, go for it.

WELL, if it works out this weekend I'd be able to attend as i'm off from bar tending all weekend! hooray!

As for mardi gras, I'm planning on driving in no matter what, and I "think" Jess is tagging along with me. Ben, would it be possible to set up a night or two of housing with one of the stl dudelymen? do you think you guys would be up for playing saturday and/or sunday and raging with us ladygirls?

Screw this weekend. Precipitation forecasted, superbowl/BMX video parties, etc.

How about the weekend of Friday, Feb. 10? Or Friday, Feb. 17?
