Bryan Bedell's Layer 10 Commentary

Castrated?

I guess it’s my fault for bringing up Gary’s balls, but we’re all lucky there’s no time to explore that theme further.

Aaron brings it home with a typically fantastic final volley, as mini-Gary loads up the mother of all paintball guns. Did I ever tell you about the time I got shot point-blank in the neck with a paintball gun? Well never mind, because the match is over and you all need to go vote. #lyt plus #mrdraplin or #mrhubacek. Deets to the right over there-->

Aaron's right, it certainly was a good game, and as they jump the goalpost to shake bats or whatever mixed-metaphor what have you, I gotta say this one is going to be super-close.

Our other qualifier to make the playoffs, Aaron Scamihorn, who was eliminated by Shawn Inman last week, just answered my Volley 9 question via twitter: "If Greg wins for using Draplin's style and imagery, something is wrong." I'm not entirely sure I agree, but it's a good argument.

SOUNDTRACK:
Dang, I was going to use the Decendents after all, because I always wanted to use "Theme" as a theme for my TV show, and this gig is as close as I'm ever going to get to having a TV show. But I can't find that on YouTube, and Jackass played out the SST-theme-song thing, so here's a nice live Coolidge because this match was totally coolidge.

Thanks for having me, thanks to the competitors and fans. I think we all learned something here today, but probably none of us has any idea what it was.

Update: Oh, duh, those are probably tennis balls.
