The TRASH Times and Other Stuff

Monday, November 27, 2006:

From the University of Illinois, here's Mike Sorice and Donald Taylor...

Seven teams and a house team competed at the Lower Midwest TRASH Regionals today, and after 10 rounds, there was no clear winner. In the advantaged final, Mike Keenan's Employment Agency, LLC (Mike Burger, Craig Barker, Anne Mitchell, and Joe Wright) came back to defeat Lords of Alacrity (Stan Jastrzebski, Eric Berman, Scott Johnston, Greg Sorenson) in the first game to take the championship.

The top three individuals were Craig Barker (MKEA), Andy Walz (Walz et al.) and Greg Sorenson (LoA), with the neg prize going to Colby Burnett (License to IL).

Thanks to my fellow teammates Steven Canning, Sulee Cao, Alan Cherney, John Dolan, Chang Meng, James Sanner, as well as guest moderators Kevin Olmstead, Roger Cheng, and Eric Kwartler.

First:

My dearest apologies go out to Bill O'Reilly's Tru Kultchur Wariers (Brian Hight, Mark Richey, Jeremy White), as due to the statistical tiebreakers, they should have played the final instead of Lords of Alacrity. I miscalculated and didn't wait for the stats to be entered.

Second:
