If what you say is true, the Wu Tang and the Shaolin could be dangerous

More Magic stuff today. We had about 30 people show up at Broken City last night for everything from standard tournament play, to EDH, to casual "Magic," (a term for using cards from anywhere, regardless of format). It was a riot. Some of the players were very new (one guy I played against said he'd started playing two months ago) and some of the players had cards from the very first Magic set. It was so much fun and such a great vibe. I met at least five people last night that had never come to Broken City for Magic before, and there was another group that I didn't meet, and they were a half dozen in numbers. There was EDH talk and talk of ideal and desired generals. There was deck tech for noobs that were playing cards like... well I won't knock his cards because his cards are his cards. He stands by them, and that's really the key. There was deck tech for Jared's main standard deck, which is now minus four Lotus Cobras, bringing the value of the deck down to only $700. It was a great time, and was really what playing Magic is supposed to be about. Getting together with like-minded folks, playing a silly game, and enjoying each other's company. And the Mirror combo went off (tee hee!) Just to reduce the geek quotient just a little, Pete Carroll will fail in Seattle. He's a college coach. And while I understand the need to constantly challenge oneself, and particularly to challenge oneself to accomplish a previously-failed task, I don't see this going well for the Seahawks or for Carroll.
