Ahh yes Matt. MB polo...I remember the old days of trashing wheels and watching Dan fly OTB....

Those were good times. Do they still play on a regular basis?

I do a lot of stuff. Primarily disc golf in the summer, as well as a bunch of computer programming projects in my spare time, japanese animation, running, reading, all the usual nerdy stuff. And of course watching a bunch of football and baseball!

Get anything this year?

Ended up with an 8pointer with a 20" spread, oh...and a tree, but thats another story! Unfortuately, I am going to miss IL's second season this weekend.

Other than RC I rollerblade and bike, occasionally ATV's, bowling, and hunting.

Yea, but did you get it with a rifle or a shotgun, and did you get a clear view of it in the scope?
