Refunds On Other High Stakes Games

Post by Greg Ambrosius » Fri Jun 04, 2004 2:18 am

Dyv knows I'm a huggable kind of guy. I hugged him in Las Vegas before our National Fantasy Baseball Championship, but was surprised to find out that Dyv was just four-foot-one. Kinda hurt my back to do it, but it felt good all the same.

James, that expo seems like a lifetime ago, but it was great to meet guys like James Serra, Charlie Wiegert, Emil Kadlec and many other veteran industry guys out there. The idea for the Fantasy Sports Trade Association grew from that first expo and here we are six years later with a strong, vibrant industry. Let's hope the trend continues. See ya in Vegas in early September.

And stop telling people we hugged in Vegas. What goes on in Vegas... STAYS in Vegas.

Based on the previous posts, I'm seriously considering instituting a "no hug" policy for those in New York.

New York? I wouldn't hug anyone in New York, either - that's just a safety issue.

Marshall, MI - population about 7,459.

Don't think you'll find it on any ranking lists...

NYC - 'a really safe big city' ;)

6th Safest among 31 cities... very impressive.

lol - giving you a hard time New Yorkers - don't take it personally. Your city is far more dangerous than mine. Here in Marshall you have to fight boredom ;)
