Picking Intercol teams is always tough - with the A's, B's and C's guys getting picked first and then then Captains and Committee picking from the guys from the other teams. There are some great players who we couldn't slot in - we picked for team balance and needs based (shooting, defence, rebounding etc) with some of the veteran guys getting seniority. Also sucks that we can only pick one non-Old Scholar per team - I feel that we are all in this together representing one club but the schools have a different take on that and we are bound by those rules.

We still need people to help sit on the bench, coach and score - so if you are keen please let me know. We want a large crowd to come out and support - come along - bring your partners, friends and family.

Let's crush those hyphenated offensive rebounding robots ... [read in robot voice] "my programming says take a shot no matter how poor or well defended I am .... CRASH GLASS, CRASH GLASS, CRASH GLASS".

After the games we are going to The Maid and Magpie - to drink their beer, eat their food, watch Mike steal their women ... and listen to the silence as they don't sing "When the Saints Go Marching In". We need a song ... Raspberry Beret by Prince?

Bubs suggested "I See Red" by Split Endz ... I used the Art vs Science version in a highlight video here - pretty good one.

A few more are: 
Power ballad - I Saw Red by Warrant
Country song - Ol' Red by Blake Shelton
Red Nation by The Game (feat Lil Wayne) ... as Little Wayne puts it ... we are gonna f the world till the b busts nuts. Ok maybe not
Seeing Red by Unwritten Law -
Red Right Hand by Nick Cave

There really are no good Red songs ... I have said Two Princes by Spin Doctors before. Can't think of much else.
