Alright Gents,

I just wanted to update some people on the pass. I have it :-)
I went through everything and updated the list of puts and takes, guys, it is very important we are updating the list each time we take and put to make sure everything goes smoothly.

This is not intended in anyway to call anyone out...purely meant to make sure we are updating everything accordingly, so keep up the good work brothers :-)
There are two sticks that are missing from the pass:
-Montecristo No.4 (the 2010 Monte 4 from Scott's original put is still in the pass, however BeerAdvocate added another and I don't see it)
-09 H. Upmann Magnum (46 or 50) Coach, do you know if you took the 46 or 50? we are missing the one you didn't take.
-A 2006 AF Don Carlos Robusto has been added to the pass, not sure who this is from?

Also, I wanted to let everyone know that I made an Excel file that has the entire list of puts/takes and every stick that has came through the pass. I have highlighted each stick that is no longer in the pass and put the name of the person who took it beside the stick. The reason why I did this is to give people another form of updating that may make it easier than the Notepad file. If you want to update the Excel file feel free (I will be keeping it up to date on my computer as I see puts and takes with each person on the thread) but please, at a minimum, make sure you update the Notepad file with your puts and takes.

This pass is going well, and I'm excited to be a part of it, let's keep it up guys.
I will be shipping tomorrow morning to Jkim05 (Jeremy) and will post the tracking info when I receive it.

Good luck to everyone this week!

RGIII is on the table for anyone interested. I could use a good tight end or wide receiver.

Any bets this week guys?

I want to make a "I'm calling you out" bet to Matt (Mattso3000)...

This is a 2-week bet for 10 troop sticks:
I bet that my team will score more points than your team over the course of this week and next week combined. (Right now, we are closely estimated in points)

Want a piece of this, Mr. First Place?? Huh, do ya!?!? Come on, Punk!

.... :-) (all in good fun bro :-) )
[Reply]

Based on Shilala's last entry update post(5 players paid, 5 haven't) entry sticks posting 106 from entries
Plus bets to date (if i recall there weren't any bets last week) 95

...which means...Current Troop Sticks to date:
201 sticks! (plus at least 30 outstanding from entries 5 players x 6 sticks each)



Woot Woot, let's keep it up guys, I think we are on pace for beating last year's total!!
[Reply]

So the box is apparently at my house, but I will not be there until Saturday. It is being taken care of, I didn't want it shipped to my apt in DC. Any case I'll get puts and takes up on Saturday or Sunday and have it shipped out by Monday.

I'm mounting my comeback from last place, lol, so in honor of my first win, I'm open to all bets, troop sticks or otherwise. Bring it on.
[Reply]

Ohhhh Yeah...you're on, Cole!
