"Make it Happen" Live Update Thread (Friday)

[Kobachi]

About 15 minutes away from the South Dakota Kid and The Freezer battling it out.

Play by play was fun yesterday, I'm going to give it a go again today for some of my friends who can watch it live.

Again, feel free to contribute...I don't know who's doing the commentary for the first two matches, hopefully Danny D. and WINCardona again, they did a great job yesterday...didn't talk over each other too much, and had had some very interesting and funny stories.

Frosty just finished up practicing, Shane is on the table now...
