all Canadians eat powdered toast. It's really weird. They call it 'French Toast', but I don't think I've ever seen the French eat it. In fact it looks like something the French would scoff at and ridicule (but then again isn't everything...)
Then they have 'English Muffins', which are basically just 'muffins'.
Back on Topic. - team SAD... Sorry, but I never got it.
@Missy-Q sad are back as a team name now with blakey but now stands for Staffordshire and district paintball club do I remember someone telling me the original name stood for strange alien desires or was I dreaming it
S.A.D was the original team name, derived from a very very drunken debate in 1993, after many many ridiculous suggestions, some funny, some rude, some offensive, and a lot of drunken laughter, the barmaid asked what we were all laughing at, when we explained she said, "well you're all just sad!", we all burst out laughing, and it stood.
Thus followed a long standing team tradition whereby when any asked what S.A.D stood for, you had to come up with a answer. Over the years attending many events marshals would call us to the field by calling Sad.
It too stuck.
A few acronyms from the past
Strange Alien Desires
Shotguns at Dawn
Stand and Deliver
Sex and Drugs
Staggering around Drunk
Steadfast amid Destruction
Shoot and Duck
There are many more, and sure to be more to come.
Over the years we have had some successes, and some epic fails, but always with a smile at the end of the day, united in our desires to play this marvellous sport.
Now we are just happy to be SaD, and play as Staffordshire and District Paintball Club, reformed in 2013 with a current membership of 53 players.
