Since tax season the workload in our office has increased exponentially and we are just now getting caught up.........football season is just around the 'corner and that means the RC will awaken from it's mid-summer slumber and the activity around here will get back to what everyone is used to......
Slicer has been holding down the fort quite admirably and everyone here is grateful for everything she does here...........the pay is bad (actually nonexistent), the hours are long, but the rewards are many......the friendships gained here will last a lifetime and she really shines when it counts.......
We've got some new ideas that we're kickin' around and we hope to have them up and running by football kickoff. This social media craze that just recently became popular and it seems that in just the past 6 months it has taken over the internet........I just heard that Facebook now has over 500 million members and that number is spirally upward with no end in sight........ YouTube has gone viral and the new, next best thing hasn't been dreamed up yet.......if we are going to remain relevant we must adapt to these changes and if anyone has suggestions..............please share!!
Thanks for sticking around and we promise to "mash the pedal" in just a bit to bring you more of what you're looking for from the best High School sports website around..............Zooom

uhmmm...you can cut the crap! lol. .... I've been here just a tad more than you, or any of our other mods this summer...not to mention, members!!! ....Just the way it goes at this time of year, I guess....but, thanks for the acknowledgment.
(btw...as you've stated, the rewards are many!! the friends i've gained here are ABSOLUTELY PRICELESS!! )
Do want to throw a shout out to all those that have been keeping the baseball/softball forums going! I'm not a bsball/sftball fan, so, like anyone else, it's hard to keep my attention......
been keeping up on the local sports reports though & wish all our still active teams, best wishes! Wrap it up & take it home!!!!!!!!!

Would love to have more ppl getting in on our new adventures, especially on our weekly conference/team rundowns & adding pix from the games you are attending each week.....If you have any ideas on how & if you can assist, please let us know....One of the 'perks' that I know of is getting into the games for free with the RocketCorner Media Pass...So, please let us know if you're interested!!
SHOW OFF YOUR LOCAL ATHLETES!!!!

Just write the check. No need to put that into gas cards, as i could quite simply skim that amount worth from the Gulf.

So, what you're telling me is that if I get one of these passes, I can get into the female roller derby here and take some pics of scantily clad chicas on wheels throwing forearms at each other? Does this get me locker room interviews, too? I dunno, but I think the "Sicilian Slicer" may be our own "Slicer" in disguise. Hmm. But her and "Crusher" don't always seem to get along in the roller rink. Oh, the horrors!
RM, you should have heard Slicer's whining while you were gone. All she could talk about was how nobody was answering her posts and how all of her creativity was going unrecognized (yes, ALL of it, not just occasional illustrations of it...every last bit of it now GONE. Absolutely no more creativity left for her). I received SEVERAL phone calls from her. It was creepy. I haven't opened the blinds in my residence for fear she will be hunting me down.
Baby Slice, deary, our wedding may be off. Your mom is just too nuts.

You're just bragging now.....
I complain every year at this time about not enough posting, as I rely heavily on my 'entertainment' from this site! I'm well aware of how scant posting is between bball & fball....and no, I don't like it! But, I always survive it and my anticipation grows as August arrives......
And any lack of 'creativity' that i may have ever had, is not due to anything 'round the 'Corner....It's been a couple difficult years for various reasons 'round here....Nothing to do with the RC.
'nuther thing.... calls i don't 'member, don't count!

I had heard that one before yes
Oh and promise rings? Soooo basically they were invented by an ugly guy too cheap to buy an engagement ring to make his girl PROMISE she won't sleep with anyone else because she's hot and he's afraid of it happening.......just my take.

The only guys I have ever known to buy a girl a promise ring are ones who are possessive and want to "mark their territory."
Then again, I won't say what a girl wearing a "promise ring" has said about her! Your poor daughter and what is probably being whispered behind her back!
Oh the fun I can have with this one!!!
