what is it with non-US teams?

I do still play with Backlash, 'yes' but the youngest player is like 27 and the average age is something well over 30.
If I had these players in their teens then the team would have been one of the best in the world but there will always be a plateau of achievcement that can never be surpassed when players have been playing for a long time.
I'm afriad it's one of life's little ways of telling you, you are getting old.
This does not mean that a seasoned player has no role in the modern game but the average has to be under 22 with one maybe two (at the most) players older than 30.
The rest of the team roster provide the youthful core of nurtured talent.

Thats DYEHARD out the picture then lol I think we have it the other way round lol but that said I guess it depends what you want out the sport me? I'm having a great time as is! and as I said earlier we've been very consistant of late.....

But as for being at the Top totally agree with what your saying and it is achievable, I think Full-on are looking at somthing along these lines though talk to Duncster, I've probably said too much!

So the recipe is

1x Robo/Bob Long/Ed Poorman

1x 28+ experienced back mid/player who can read the game

12x sub 25-yr old whippets - with the majority being sub 22 - with lots of raw talent and no bad technical habits

Lotsx $$$$$

See, this is where it gets complicated

Mr Big has started to build a degree of animosity betwix Brits and Yanks. With us K2 Ultimate Baddasses being so awesome I suppose any bad comment about UK ball doesn't really apply to us AND we are officially Yanks this weekend (I found a way of getting cash buy the way for the weekend dude) which poses an odd situation.

Picture the scene.

500 crazy brits are foaming at the mouth trying to eat any Yank alive but wait, you see the sparkling blue outfits of the K2 baddasses amongst them?? so you ask yourself, did he fire six shots or only five...hang on, wrong scene....erm....do you (a) be hardcore and start an ole fashion western style bar brawl or do you (b) run like hell 'coz Corossion are big ugly baddasses?? Or do you (c) kiss n make up coz everone loves the Machine™??

By the way, anyone ask Mr. Big why he's got his mountain bike helmet on and looks like a stoopid fag chump and if he shows his face in this town again he'll be eatin' his food through a straw...WOOHOOOO yeah baby, tes-tos-ter-one!!

Irony.

Like when Benny Hill slaps that funny little bald dude.

I dig.

what the hell?

After going through 8 pages of what, on the most part is drivel.
All I can say is calm down!!!
okay Mr Big may have tried to stir it up a bit by slagging down all the British teams. Some brit makes a foul mouthed comment and T.j reprimands said brit. And then robbo comes in and gives his seasoned opinion on the British game. (gotta respect your elders).
At the end of the day the Yanks love the Brits (In a brotherly way of course ) and the Brits love the Yanks( this would explain why we are the first to stand up beside them in every modern conflict)

So after we have decided that lets All pick on the......

Mind you the royal marines invading spain the other day seemed like a good idea
