Back in Paris now, after a nice weekend.
a few points (I like bulletpoints):
this was the proof that Bike Polo tourneys should NEVER be affiliated to messenger champs. 40 or so teams registered, only 15 or so bothered to actually be there all the time. Saturday games were a joke. NO GOOD POLO was played on that day. Plus there were tons of crusty dreadlocked people around - yuck. Just kidding. I was happy to se Pikey Wayne even.
this was the proof that even germans can fuck up at organising something. SUCH A MESS. No scoreboard, weird rules abandonned half way through the games (no riding through goal??), no proper table chart, no one to give countdowns, shoddy courts, the infamous "food break" during the dry spell on saturday, the postponed finals, etc...
this was the proof that London polo is still more exciting to watch than munich polo
this was the proof that london polo needs to improve its team play. How the fuck did tres amigos get beaten by a probably less experienced team??
this was the proof that "old" players can still kick ass! Thanks bill for being a great teammate.
