Let's have a little bit of Cold War espionage in our neighbourhood. The Seattle Sockeyes are happy (and a little bit terrified) to select Elizabeth Jennings, AKA Nadezhda, as our team neighbour.
I choose my brutally stupid, out of the loop, mindless, soulless, unobservant, socially inept, marionette of a boss, WD.
This clown goes by his middle name. First name? Warren. I'd probably use my middle name too. The best thing that happened to this guy was COVID, because for a time it made us all wear a mask- that small mouthed, big lipped, patchy stubbled panface deserves every second of mask covering possible. Jesus Christ. Ugly, stupid, and clueless. Truly exemplary traits for a fearless leader
"Carolina and CBJ both built winners without tanking."
We start the day with @pit on the clock, @ajgoal on deck, @Asnito on the lido deck, and me on the lido afterdeck.
Have you noticed that you don't really need a calendar anymore? You just have to wait for the pigeons to start thrusting out their chests and flapping their wings and shitting themselves with misguided, arrogant satisfaction, and you immediately know that the New Orange Jalopy has taken off on its annual pointless early-season heater. They never, ever, ever learn.
I know two things about WW2 airplanes: diddly and squat.
So I am picking this one:
And why you ask? Because it's name is the Focke-Wulf FW-190. And to me, that reads a whole lot like F*ckwolf said in a bad accent, which is a pretty sweet name for a plane. A caption on this picture nicknamed it the Butcher Bird. Awesome.
Also, this article says it's the best plane from WW2 (The Focke-Wulf FW-190: Best Fighter Aircraft of WWII.). Well, the title says it is the best and I hardly read the article and researched no other sources. It's this kind of Fletcher-level competence that will surely serve us well once we leave this wretched place behind.
Team WW2 Airplane: Focke-Wulf FW-190
@ajgoal Did you know there is a band called F*ckwolf? Neither did I until right now. Don't think they are my cup of tea, but maybe you'll dig them.
I can't say there's really anything about this time or the place that makes it our choice. Kringelmarkts, local fests, the local breweries (including Kloster Kreuzberg, go there if you go there (@Rebels57)) are all still there. Even Rockfabrique and the Labyrinth, the two main clubs we used to go to are still there. But the buildings we lived in have been repurposed and the people that made it special are gone. But this time and this place fits with our second team album like a glove. Because like the album, the place is all about the memories and the people that it was experienced with. So we're going to lean into nostalgia one more time and head back there.
I've loved this guy since the first time I saw him.
"WAC-47 was a modified DUM-series pit droid who served the Galactic Republic during the Clone Wars. He was a part of D-Squad along with several other droids on an important mission, serving under Colonel Meebur Gascon and piloting his ship. WAC-47 was programmed as a pilot, but felt he was capable of more. He repeatedly referred to Gascon by the incorrect rank of Corporal, apparently as a part of a 'program glitch.' He did not get along well with Gascon at first, as he treated the droids as property, though they eventually came to understand and respect each other and WAC was promoted to Corporal by Gascon."
IF YOU WANNA HEAR STONE COLD MAKE THE NEXT PICK FOR THOSE TRAILER TRASH JACKASSES, THE JACKSONVILLE METHGATORS, GIVE ME A HELL YEAH!!!
Alright, so, we need a President of our hockey operation. That sounds pretty damn stupid to me, so here’s to ya!!
So, since Stone Cold needs to pound down some Steveweisers so lets get this crap over with! The President of hockey ops for the dumbass Methgators is…a former tag team partner of mine and an all around idiot, DUDE LOVE!!
And that’s the bottom line! CAUSE STONE COLD SAID SO!!!
"The owners of the Halifax Galleons are not as deeply invested in most of the legendary games that represented the huge advances in gaming activity. But we like what we like. Thus, we are choosing the Boss of our current favourite multiplayer game, Lilith (Diablo IV).
"Lilith takes her name from Jewish folklore, in which she is described as Adam's first companion who left him and elsewhere as the worst example of a rebellious woman or embodying problematic female traits. This image is maintained in other sources, with Lilith often described as having children with monsters, manipulating children, and associated with disease and sexual immorality. In its original Hebrew, Isaiah 34:14 refers to lilit, which translates to 'the night creature', although the context points more to an owl or similar nocturnal yet natural animal.
"Lilith of Diablo IV, Blessed Mother, Daughter of Hatred, Queen of the Succubi,
lover of the Archangel Inarius
, is cunning, brilliant, and cruel yet in a calculated way. After Heaven and Hell attacked her offspring, she waged war against both, and was eventually exiled in the Void, but she returned for the current incarnation of Diablo to take her battle to the Prime Evils. It is an intriguing story line to be acting in the midst of this struggle of evil against evil.
Barbarian, Rogue, Sorcerer, Necromancer, or Druid, @Magua?

We start the day with @Magua on the clock, @Hollywood Cannon on deck, @mja on the lido deck, and Rebels on the lido afterdeck. Asnito can make up his pick whenever.
The Honolulu Ghibli make the easiest pick in team history with our Team Pet.......Chloe
Who is that? Well, my childhood dog of course (with my current mongrel, Bella, serving as "Team Babe"). Chloe passed a little over 3 years ago at the ripe old age of 18 but what a gal. She had IBD, epilepsy, and an obsession with bagels.
And here's the day we got her. Ah, we both looked so youthful then!

@Hollywood Cannon -- the real victims of the Flyers disastrous management? Doggos who just want treats.

Too much glare. Not a fan of sunshine. Looking forward to the weird and dim lighting of the Quackverse. Allegedly.
