🎙unclejimmy release log

eeeeeeeemma, corbin, nikkigirl, and I had dinner with corbin's parents to discuss the possibility of him moving in with us in the fall. The plan is for him to join the apprentice program at [redacted] where I work, to move in with us to be closer to the job, and save some coin while avoiding student debt.

No matter how many people end up leaving here, we always seem to keep finding people to replace them. I'm using the term "we" very loosely. lol

We ended up at Draft Gastropub, and had a nice meal with some nice folks. Personal ratings:

• nikkigirl = 7.5
• unclejimmy = 7.0
• eeeeeeeemma = 7.8
• corbin = [pending]

5-5, 13:8, 17:11, 25:18 W, 25:17 W, 2-0.

welcome back for day two everyone, a bit of a rocky start for cross court as they get into their groove, but it looks like they’re picking up speed! With a game winning point from Noah Ray, cross court is on fire! 2:0 win against Mamba, continuing our momentum from yesterday.

Match winning hit from jeff meff himself!

10:14, 17:18, 23:19, 25:22 W, 19:13, 21:14, 25:19 W

The boys were on Fire this game it started off a little rocky, but we pulled through and I’m always here to hype up my boy jeff meff, but special guest appearance for number 27 who made us so many points during his time to serve. 2:0 win against MVP, guess they aren’t so valuable after all…

Alright everyone it’s time to lock in. At 4 o’clock cross court will be playing against inferno for first place in our bracket. Get your party hats on, it’s gonna get rowdy!!

LOL, our correspondent eeeeeeeemma's phone died. That didn't stop the bois tho! They ended the weekend undefeated and won the tournament championship!

It's been a long year, and more of a struggle than last year, so it's nice to see them pull themselves together and grab a W. Great group of kids.

Follow the team's Instagram for more fun!

Sorry for the wait folks, but we’re back with our final game update. After an undefeated tournament it was down to inferno and our boys. the game started pretty close, and I was on the edge of my seat, but they secured the win. the final round was fast, and you could tell the other boys were a little defeated on the court. Ours however were having the time of their lives and closed out the day 2:0 and went home undefeated and first place in their division.

New chronicle section type. table schema, AKA places we eat when we roam the planet.

I didn't think about this one until after we left, otherwise I would have taken a few extra photos perhaps. Anywho, here's nikkigirl's review:

I rated it a 7.9, thus the average score below.

Meanwhile, jeff meff is in Milwaukee dropping a lil sumpin sumpin on they heads. At this point, we'll turn it over to our local correspondent, and guest mage, eeeeeeeemma......

9:9, 17:12, 20:16, 25:16 W, 10:5, 17:6, 25:14, 2-0 W

this is your announcer eeeeeeeemma with you this afternoon, the boys are fired up on the court today i must say. It was a close game against Cross court and the illinois juniors but ultimately cross court picked up the speed and won the game 2:0.

Welcome back folks this is your announcer eeeeeeeemma, we’ve got a crazy start to game two With cross court leading by 10 in their first round. Multiple special appearances from the star of the show Noah Ray have scored us at least 4 points and the odds are looking good for our cross court friends. It got a little tense there in round 2, but Noah brought home another W for the team. 2:0.

10:3, 13:7, 15:9, 16:12, 21:14, 25:17 W, 4:2, 11:8, 20:12, 22:13, 25:16 W

the team is fired up tonight, already up 11:3 in the first five minutes! Things are looking good for our cross court pals tonight, which is great. Because your announcer is getting tired! Noah Ray was getting the bench fired up as usual with the occasion play time to dominate on the court, and that wraps things up for tonight, with a win 2:0 against the mambas (our sworn enemy (iykyk))

How 'bout that from eeeeeeeemma, our #1 guest contributor? Nice to hear the boys kicked some ass for us. Thank you eeeeeeeemma!

Let's close with a dumb joke:

And with that stupidity, we'll close with some more ball:

Day two of the tournament got off to an early start and we got into the building shortly after 7am:

First up:

R U Ready?

The first set against UNION B17 Black was a pretty close match throughout, only to see it slip away in the end, 19-25. 0-1.

Next set we got out to a 16-12 lead followed by a tie at 18, a four point deficit 18-22, another tie at 22 & 24, just to watch them take the last two points 24-26.

0-2. Game, set, match (bad guys).

Let's look at all of the fellas that served today:

Let's get this party started:

Next villain to slay: OPVC 17 Purple. Once again, we jumped out to a lead, this time 8-4, just to get run pretty good, 17-25. 0-1.

The second set made it to a tie at 11, a four point deficit at 14-18, extended to 5 at 16-21, cut to 3 at 20-23, one at 23-24, and we ran out of gas again, 24-26. Bummer. 0-2.

Game, set, match (bad guys).

Our boi jeff meff got some good action across both sets of this match:

Birthday weekend party people stand up:

Day one of the tournament went pretty well overall. Large facility, long line to get in, but generally speaking, nice accommodations.

Here was the schedule:

The first match against Academy 17E Black got off to a bit of a slow start before the boys took it too them. Dominated 25-15, up 1-0.

While the second set was much closer than it should have been, the boys pulled it out with a hard fought 25-23 victory. Game, set, match: 2-0.

Check out ya boi:

In the second match against MVC 17-Brad it looked to be evenly matched from the beginning. After building up a decent lead I thought to myself, self, maybe it isn't all that evenly matched. Well MVC came back, made it close, but couldn't pull it out in the end. CCVBC victory, 28-26, up 1-0.

The next set got off to a decent start before we let go of the rope, helping them get out ahead, and even though we fought back at the end, we couldn't quite pull it out. 20-25 loss, match now tied 1-1.

After giving away the first two points and making me nervous, the bois finished strong to pull out a 15-13 victory. 2-1 match win.

The last match of the day against Cinci Attack 17 Gold got off to a strong start, only to lose 17-25. They really lost their cool and did themselves in this set. 0-1.

They started off the second set strong once again, only to hit another rough patch where they were their own worst enemy. This time they fought back, but couldn't pull it out in the end. 23-25 loss, 0-2. Game, set, match (bad guys).

Woah, jeff meff can ref? LMAO:

On the way out I found out that they are ready for spring training here in Indiana. 42 degrees and ready to ball.

Respect.
