Good .. thats one whinger gone

.. now how do i get Ashley to remove himself from his own thread

Yeah that sux, why was I the only trophy hunter banned from C/D grade - just coz I won D grade singles/doubles and C mixed, doesn't mean I can do that 2 years in a row hehehe!

We have set a precedent, time to move on to another state

Well Yum Cha was the highlight of my VIC OPEN weekend

.. and in future also me

... after winning the C single Loke Poh, shook and held on to my hands, pull me closer, gave me a stare and said "Congradulation, BUT Never email asking if you can enter in C or D again"

P.S. I'm having Yum cha tomorrow with my team mates from WSBA, you can join us if you want.

Poor Vien got picked on so much - I barely got one whinge.

The trick is I am old, only allowed to play once or twice a week and don't take the game too seriously win or lose.

I threw my first game against some kid so I didn't have to play A grade singles. Then what happen? I lost my next game in B grade against I guy I have beaten before

Its all karma, one day you are a C grader, next day you are a B grader, I am in a type of badminton void

Waiting for the Veterans competition, only 4 years to go

Seriously, I agree with Shy, Vien played some tough matches in C singles and Vincent lost in the semis, and he beat me at Ballarat, so Vien FULLY DESERVES the C grade singles trophy - well done Vien!

Now on a lighter note, Vien and I will challenge anyone reading these posts (except those Monash girls) to a match for $$$. That is right, you pay us to either win against you, or lose against you

Just when it look like there was going to be a trophy drought in July .. along comes the 4th Titans Vs Southern Star interclub comp ... and this time its personal

... and with so many of the SS players recently falling for the trappings of marriage and/or parenting hood .. Titans got the advantage this time round

... and if Ashley be a little good organiser and put me in the section 4 team as he was told :P .. i might be able to get my sixth trophy for "09 ............. and for the record this can not be considered "Trophy Hunting" .... even section 4 in a Titans Vs SS must be considered B+ grade .. so i better not read about any one whinging

**ashley** · 07-07-2009, 07:54 AM

I won't be giving you clues which section you are playing. In any case the nice shiny steel trophy won't be too easy to get hold of. You will have to earn it.

**vienb** · 07-08-2009, 09:31 PM

You're right it wont be a easy trophy to get hold of ... since there's so many trophy hunters on both side, and both the organisers are trophy hunters themself

.. i swear Ash .. if you and Soul both put each other in a lower section then me ... i will be giving the ultimate almighty Gorden Ramsey spray

..and for the record I have earned and deserved every trophy i've won

**Robbo77** · 07-12-2009, 01:31 AM

GOOD NEWS! My mixed doubles career is back on track. Just got a call from Bek saying she is giving up her capoeira and returning to her true sport - badminton

So watch out Lok Poh, I am entering C grade at the Monash as Bek has been a retired vic junior state player for a few years now

**vienb** · 07-12-2009, 03:02 AM

Its done ... the challenge has been posted in a new thread .. now we sit and wait for the challengers

**ashley** · 07-12-2009, 05:08 AM

I think you can sit back and wait for verbal abuse from the veterans (I don't think the juniors will respond as most Gen Y's are a bit shy or lazy)

Thats why I've outsmarted all those geriatrics by framing one of their own .. Carl

.. its a known contrive fact that old people are afraid of the internet and even more afraid of web posting ... so I'm safe

.. otherwise i will really have to renew my passport so that i can fly and hide over in Brazil till this all blows over

Oi, I'm Gen Y!

See what I mean, only one response out of thousands of Gen Y's at Badminton Central.

**anjoooo** · 07-17-2009, 06:22 AM

Well this Gen Yers voice is a loud one, so I'll respond for the other thousand or so of us here at BC

**vienb** · 07-18-2009, 12:09 AM

Lazy one line postings ... yep that really sums up generation Y, lets pin all our hopes on the next generation, Z or what ever generation come after that. Cause Y is a write off, a generation humanity will quickly forget and forever denied ever existed for out of embarrassment

**Robbo77** · 07-19-2009, 03:57 AM

haha! that is funny, we can laugh as we are the productive and complaining Generation X

Don't worry guys, it is roughly time that Generation X are producing mini-X generation, so that will make up for the lazy, always using spell checkers, twitter addicted, do nothings Gen Yérs
