    For me, anything that breaks on a racket and you cannot use it anymore is a broken racket.

    Fixing the handle was not that easy. I took it to a couple of experts and they said it beyond fixing, the handle on my Cab 9, basically sheared off at an angle, in about 4-5 pieces, was not really fixable, nor do I want to fix it (myself).

    Dinkalot I think you need more follow through if your actually snapping handles...

    You definitely should try to get a game against Trisna, his defense is A+.

    You may need a stronger partner than Don, get Chris or Ba Su or Alex.:D

    I'm organizing the first ever GGBC POT this Saturday. Many of the A players from Bay Area will be playing. $20.00 per player. So exciting, finally some challenge.:D

    I don't know, yesterday Don and I beat Alex. I got lucky and defended well...enough. :p

    I've beaten Alex the last 4 times I played him now. :eek: :eek: :eek: ...:p ...:D

    My secret: don't hit it to Alex. When I do hit it to him...I lose. :p

    Don is good enough, no complaints. Besides against Trisna, I'm not looking to win, I'm looking to learn, have fun and get run (the last I'm sure of). :p :p :p

    Off topic..

    wah, that looks like a pretty tantalizing lineup, esp. for a reg. pot gathering-$20/person x 14, that's already $280 in cash for the winner(s), not too shabby...;) ah, and maybe it's time for kwun to go back and bring out his "weapon" of choice...;) :D
    man, they should have a N.Cal vs. S.Cal competition every yr...More like a World-Cup style, 10 vs. 10, but within the state of California & winner takes all...But then there's already the U.S. National tournament every yr..$100 a pop x 10 people, that's already $1000 for the winner(s)...:rolleyes: :cool: :D

    ok, ok, enough, we're going way off topic now..sorry Dan..:p
