Hope you are right but this is a tall tall order and Mark is going to have his hands full... When you take demographic that is me me me by nature of them living hand to mouth and attempt to make them into a team it's going to be an uphill fight...
I wish there was more sponsorship for the US Team so that they could afford to do the team building and training that it is going to require but the truth is this is a several year project...
IF the US was the size of Europe we might be able to pull it off in a year but the players are strewn to the corners and there are very few opportunities to have them all together... A long weekend plus airfare is gonna run 5k easy...
Hell if I had it I'd pay the tab for them to come to Knoxville and let me put a team of locals together to do some joisting but I don't... Unless some folks out there that do have the capacity and interest magically appear Mark and the guys are gonna be up against it come December.. And per Mark's words they are done taking charity anyone that wants to help should expect the help will only be accepted if it's a 2 way street.. Be it charitable events, entertainment or good old competition...
I have $500 to throw in to the hat and will travel 4 hours to be on a team to play them... Knoxville is dead tho which is why I will travel... KK9 and Pinky how's the water in the Carolinas????
