Hey guys, i started a new web board because the other one was getting to big. For all the new guys, this board is for everyone to use to get a hold of me or doug. If you are going to miss practice, or you phone number or anything like that changes, then you can leave everyone a message about it, and i will check it before each practice. If you have a chance, look around on the website, i updated it and added a few more pictures. I am not that computer literate, but what i did will have to do. Well anyways, see you guys at the Rec.
I am also going to add links on the roster to all of the new guys pictures, as well as a get to know you type thing, with different facts on it, somewhat like what is already done, so be looking for that. ALso for all the old guys that used to play, i will try to keep the site updated all year so you can check how we are doing in every tournament that we enter. Well laters for now.

Kevin

Hey guys take a look at the upcoming events part of the website, there is important information about what is coming up, along with dues information.

You took my picture off the website. No respect for the old folks, I guess. No, that's cool. I'm glad to see somebody is finally doing something with this site. Good luck this season. Moffitt, make me proud.

Later

I am sorry about that picture thing. When i was making changes, it deleted some of the existing pictures. If you have any pictures that i could use, i am thinking of starting a past players section on our website. This goes for any guys that look at this website, if you would like me to post a picture, information of what you are doing now, i would be glad to add you to our past players section, just send my an email with the picture, and information on your family, job, and anything else, when you played, graduated, what you played, etc.

Thanks

I want a new picture on there. Also I am aware of how to leave messages on the board.
WORD

Found the site.....and know how to use it. Lets get it on!

Just checkin in.

Hey, just lettin u know that i made it to the site, see ya all tuesday.

i have traveled the depths and found my way...oh what a feeling!

hooray for volleyball

Found it! Now it's all gravy.

Have no fear guys, all is worked out with club volleyball and we are practicing at the men's gym tuesday at 9pm, park in the holden hall parking lot or the lot right infront of the gym. Don't be late, and bring your 25 dollars.

why is kevin the only one that gets a star by his name?

WHAT UP PLAYA'S I FOUND IT I SHOULD BE THERE TONIGHT IF I AM NOT CELEBRATING MY B-DAY SO YEAH!!!!!!!!PEACE OUT

Kevin i want be able to make it to practice tonight. If you have any questions call me on my cell 441-6622.

PRactice will be at the men's gym tonight, right next to holden hall and the big bubble. Enter in on the south side of the building, there will be signs.

Look for the map under the practice link if you want to know where to park or where the men's gym is.
See you there.

Hey it was a great practice, word. see you thursday, dont be late.

Great practice. Way to work.
WORD

Holla back on three....1, 2, 3...

Ditto, on how great practice was. See everyone on tuesday.

Way to show up at the women's vball game. Jesse Herrera, the libero on the vball team said thanks for everyone coming out. Way to represent...See you tuesday

Kevin Martinez

YES, it has been found...
http://pinkyworld.virtualave.net/pondering.html
...just go and enjoy!!!

I read it all........I don't know why, but I did.

Doug will be at practice tommorrow. The girls chartered a bus, and are leving wednesday. So every get out to pratice tommorrow, and be ready to work.
Laters

We chartered a plane....and I will be there on tuesday also.......no big deal.
Geez, no love for the old guy.

geez, no love for pinky and the brain

Can't make practice.

Good practice. Keep working. Everyone is getting much better very fast.

Hey guys, great practice! Keep up the work. We still have a lot to do before the UT weekend.

touché touché

Hey guys, ditto to what has already been said. Remember also that next tuesday, $25 more of your dues need to be turned into me at the beggining of practice, unless you have already payed it all, or have talked to me.

Laters

Austin Rester.......7'4" Outside Hitter
Needs to be added to roster.
WORD

He is a tall man!

Yes, yes he is.
Can I just get that picture taken off?
I'm engaged....I don't need a bunch of groupies hangin around practices. That could be distracting for some of you.

I took the picture off. Also, we will try to take new pictures this thursday or next tuesday, i would like to have them up there before we leave for UT.

Guys be thinking about your dues. If you havent already talked to me, i need another 25 dollars this tuesday or thursday for your dues, which should bring everyone to 50 dollars, unless you have already paid it all. Talk to me if this is a problem, but for us to have the money to travel, we need dues.

i want moffitt's groupies in my picture!!!

How are we on jerseys? Unless you already got some we need more. I call number 11 even though it is silly that I should have to.

I think that we are good on jerseys. we might need to get a few more, i dont know how that works as far as cost. We will talk about it at practice, i will find out which numbers we have and how many we have.

so back to the groupies in my picture...i hear no objections, hooray!!!!!

whats up with spelling my last name Trevino...I thought i spelt it Gomez, LOL.

Zach...what part of I'm engaged don't you understand? The groupies are fair game. You guys can fight for them.
J.P. that was one of the funniest posts ever to grace the web-board!

Sorry abot the mix-up on your name J.P. i got it fixed.

I knew the groupies were off-limit for you, Moffitt, I was waiting for objections from everyone else! Kevin, I'm a sr., no soph.

Sorry guys for all the mistakes on the roster. I made up some of the things when i was updating the roster because i had not gotten that information from you guys. Now that i have it, i just havent had the time to update it.

Hook me up with one of those Nifty Mens Vball T-shirts. Can I pay in installments?...lol

Great practices guys, see you at the girls game on Saturday at 1pm.

Awesome practice! Keep workin'!

hey just wondering if its too late to start playing with the team?

only if it's too late to call myself 'Massive Right Forearm'

be my guest =). so would the unambiguous answer be yes it's too late or no it's not too late?

Now I'm just confused. So, is your left bigger than your right and why? We already have a lefthanded guy who needs a date. But we can always use a guy with a clever nickname for himself.

ha, well if you want a righthanded guy that needs a date and has a massive left forearm and can think of a clever nickname, well that's me? in the meantime, i'll let you ponder your own ponders on the nickname

oh by the way, i just finished making a whole message board for tech students only at www.ttuforums.com/forum check it out and give me your opinions please. just fyi, there are no members yet because I haven't had chance to promote so it's kind of dead in there but give it a look anyways?

Alright, i am confused as well, but i think that you want to play, and no it is not to late to play with the team. If you are interested, we practice on tuesdays and thursdays in the men's gym, 9-11. if you need directions look at the practice section of this website. Hopefully we will see you on tuesday at 9.

For those pondering what I'm pondering...how exactly do you teach an elephant to set a B?!?!?!?

Hey guys, hope you will all be there tonight, dont forget to bring you money.

my what??? ... how much?

nvrmnd....dues...

Hey Donovan, or if anybody sees Donovan around campus, i do not have your number to call you, but i am wondering whether you are still wanting to play. Leave a message on the board or send me an email if you still plan on playing.

Hey guys, lets have a good practice tonight. We are only a little over a week away from the Texas Tournament. I also got it approved to play on Nov. 8 vs WT at the Arena!!! Following the women's match. See you tonight.

Doug

Hey guys, sorry but i will not be at practice tonight, this is my only chance to go see my little bro play football. good luck and have fun, see ya tuesday.

Hey Kevin, can you bring a medium volleyball shirt to practice so I can buy it.

Hey Kevin, I saw Donavan and he said his knee was giving him some trouble so he was going to have it looked at yesterday. I didn't see this posting until now but he didn't say he wasn't going to play. Maybe he'll show up tonight.

We have a lot of old shirts left over from past years. I think that i will just bring them to practice and let you guys take one. I dont know what sized that i have, but i know that there are a lot of large and xtra larges.

Hey guys, especially Tech 2, great practice. Have a good weekend and dont do anything stupid, because we need you on the court.

Laters

Go Tech 2!!!!...

Kevin,

Call me on my cell phone!

Doug

Hey Doug, i dont have your cell phone, so call me, 441-2801.

Hey Mr. Martinez-Ochoa, are there any sweatshirts left over from last year? I never got one of those (gray with Double T on front).

Sorry there are none that i know of. Moffit would have those if we had any left, but as far as i know, he gave everything to me, so i am going to go ahead and say that they are all gone.

Hey Doug, I will be an hour late to practice on Tuesday the 14th. I'll be there as close to ten as possible.

Saw intramural volleyball signup flier today...what are the rules about club guys on the same team? Is it two per team? What up with that?

Edited by author 10-13-2003 02:25 PM
hey if you are going to the practice tonight make sure to wear a black shirt (if you are the libero bring a different shirt as well), the sooner we look like a team the sooner we start to play like a team. lets beat the old guys

I agree guys, lets get going. i am sporting my socks eddie...you do the same.

yeah zach,only two guys.

blasted rec tyranny

has anyone seen caleb?

not since last practice

Caleb should be there tonight, he talked to me last week and told me he was not going to be able to make it last thursday.

Jerseys are in! We will give them out on Thursday. Also, you guys all try to come the women's game tonight. Be loud and have a good time. They need our support!!!

Congrats on winning the Pizza last night at the women's match! Thanks for the support. See you tonight at 9 PM.

Pizza esta muy buen!

I am eating pizza tonight before practice!!!!!!!!

I didn't get any pizza.

oh, i see how it is....now you have a "real" coach. just kidding. just wanted to say hello. sky and i love it here. good luck this season!

ps-nice web page!

Hey colleen, it is good to hear from you. Hope that everything is going well. Clyde says whats up as well. Also, where are you girls at, and are you two playing on the same team. Anyways keep us updated.
Look around on our website later for results at our tournaments, i will keep it updated with how we do as well as pictures.
Laters

Moffinator
Congrats on the job with the womens team. The teams website looks great. So, is Jamey still coming to practice with his video camera. (LOL) Good Luck this season

Great job guys at the tournament...especially Tech 2!!! awesome playing with you guys!

just thought i'd break up the silence

Z! where's my theme music at?!?!

bom chica bow waw

bow chica wow waw, or at least that's how i say it.

hey J.P. I need you to give me a call ASAP either on my cell, 210-382-8932 I have class from 1-4 call me after 4

Lets have a good practice today guys, keep it positive!

Hey guys,
      Just wanted to apologize if I seemed a little intense the other night at practice. I like to have fun when I play just as much as the next guy, just in the right context. We need to be more disciplined and more serious during practice. I'm saying all of this because I see great things for both teams, and unless we become more serious, and have more discipline than we have right now, we will never reach our potential. I am not suggesting that we not have fun while we scrimmage, we just need to keep the focus with the fun. Feel free to respond to this and let me know, and the team, what you think. I agree with JP, let's have a good practice tonight.

Me and Kevin have actually talked about this before and we've talked about keeping the same amount of fun while we play, but we did think we needed to up the execution. That doesn't mean jumpin' all over each other when we make a mistake, but it doesn't mean accepting the mistakes, either. First step is tonight at practice!

Hey guys, sorry if i was pissed on thurs, just things got to me and i blew up. i am always positive. i just think we need to work more as a TEAM, and work on stuff as a TEAM, NOT pin piont individuality. I love playing with all you guys. sorry if i was hatin' a lil bit. i got mad love for everyone

JP,
I'm sure that I speak for the rest of the team when I say that you don't have to worry about Thursday night's practice. People can't always be uppity. Everyone gets in a funk everyonce in a while, and thats excusable. Let's have a good practice Tuesday,........Thursday forgotten,.....hopefully by Tuesday my ankle will have forgotten about Thursday's practice.

I was looking to see if you still have a team and if you still only have 2 good players. I heard you lost to DBU at UT.
Damn, Do you guys ever practice or just sit and cry like a bunch of 15 year old girls?

Well, we do say HOLLER a lot...so that moves us up to at least 17 years olds, right?

I mean DBU, come on. You guys need to just give up 'trying' to play, because all you guys do is bitch on this stupid web page. Go paint each others toe nails

Damn, is all you do just sit on your computer and whine like a little 15 year old girl trying to prove yourself through a keyboard to a bunch of people who don't really give a damn what you have to think about our team? Yeah we don't want to lose our games, but at least we have fun and stay optimistic about it, which is more than I can say for you. If you're trying to motivate us, try building us up instead of breaking us down. Because right now your current tactic couldn't motivate a turd to drop. Take your pessimism elsewhere, because if you're going to talk trash like that, you're not welcome here in my opinion. Go prove your pithy internet dominance somewhere else.

WORD!

Can't we all just get along?

Edited by author 11-04-2003 12:18 PM
Hey guys in case you did not know Mike and I will not be at practce tonight. We have to leave for Oklahoma tonight with the team. Practice hard for our match this weekend vs. WT See you on Thursday night. Kevin give me a call.

Doug

Easy Lefty. You were one of the good players I was referring to. Don't be so defensive.

Edited by author 11-04-2003 06:09 PM
Haha me? Ok whatever you say, but no matter how good a player is he's nothing without his homies beside him on the court.
CAN I GET A "WORD, BROTHA!"? ;)

this is hilarious!!!

but seriously, did anyone pick up my watch after practice on thursday?

Edited by author 11-04-2003 07:31 PM
Who is massive left forearm?
And which Baylor Bear is this?

WORD BROTHA

Edited by author 11-07-2003 10:53 AM
   I'm real excited about playing this weekend. Let's play well and enjoy playing in a real arena. It's a little different than the wonderful practice gym that we use. Let's have fun and beat West Texas A&M. Holler.

how great would a new, warm hooded sweatshirt feel right about now?

DINNER AT MY APT AT 4:00 FOR THE TEAM!!!!! IF YOU WANT TO COME, HERE IS DIRECTIONS. IF YOU CANT UNDERSTAND THEM CALL MY CELL 806-535-6605.


Directions to my house:

Get on 19th going West (towards the inside of the loop) - turn left on frankford (at the dairy queen) - go down frankford and turn right on 32nd (at the storage units) then take an immediate right on Genoa. (its the 3rd drive way to your left)

I live in Summertime Villa Apts - APT K K 2 (not K2, KK2)
My apt is in the back towards the right!

won't be at practice tonight...this whole school thing is kickin' my bootay right now

Hey doug, if you are reading this then i am guessing you escaped from Iowa. Anyways see you at the game on Saturday.

Hey, if anyone wants to come out to the Rec tonight around 8pm, my intramural team is practicing and i wanted some real competition, so if yall can come out see you there.

Hey guys, we might have another game planned for this semester against Abilene Air Force base teams. We are still working things out, so keep coming to practice, Doug will be here this week, and if you owe me money, pay me this week. we have to have all of our dues in before we can even think about getting sweat shirts for the team, plus we are going to require every guy to sell at least 5 t-shirts, we need to make money on this so that we can travel both teams next semester.

hey kevin are we going to have any games or tournements schedualed for the weekened of Dec. 6 can you get back to me on this asap

can't make it to practice tonight. word

Hey, I can't make it to practice tonight, sorry.

Hey i dont know if i can make it to practice tonight, I have a test. I will try to be there. Thanks

two tests and quiz tomorrow...gotta study so wont be there, =\

hey i dont know about when the scheduled game with the abilene teams will be, i will get back to you when i know more. i will let you guys know dates as soon as possible.

Will anyone be available to ball shag at the game on Wednesday? Call me 742-7545 asap.

Practice tonight at 9, @ the rec. Practice will be on the court in the upper level of the rec. Practice not mandatory, yet it would be great if everyone showed up. See ya there.

Hey guys, hope to see you at practice but if not have a great thansgiving.

nevermind

I messed up my ear today, and have to go to the Doctor tommorrow, so I will not be able to be at practice tonight. Sorry for this, but I can not hear out of my right ear, and the Doc told me to be carful until he can look at it tommorrow.

Oh no way! Sorry to hear that, Coach. (no pun intended) If it makes you feel any better, I broke a toe today and my legs are so beat up I can hardly walk, and I got my neck wrung in jiu jitsu, its so stiff I can't look below the horizontal, so I wont be making practice tonight either. Should be fine by thurs i hope.
Hope you get better!

What is the deal with tonights practice? I heard that it was canceled. Let me know.

Hey yeah, let me know too.

but who can cancel besides coach?

< replied-to message removed by QT >

Hey guys there is a tournament st WT on Jan. 10th. Let me know asap if we want to attend. Kevin call my cell (806) 543-1977.

Doug

Hey guys, sorry i have been busy and havent checked the web board in a while. We will not have practice next tuesday, but if you want to we will just play at the Rec for anyone that needs a break from studying for finals.

Also, the tournament on Jan.10 at West TExas A&M. Just so that you guys know, we dont start school again until the 17th, so if you will be in town and want to go, i think it would be fun, and it's close.

Hey guys, also look on the tournaments section, i will update it with next semesters tournaments, and their locations so that you can start opening and saving those weekends in your schedules.

Has anyone seen Zach, or did he just fall of the face of the earth.

i haven't seen him around, so i'm assuming the latter.
< replied-to message removed by QT >

i saw zach coming out of class the other day and talked to him for a while, he just said that he had some work to get done this week and that is why he was gone so... he lives.

and i would be interested in going to the tournament on january the tenth fyi.

Tis true, all is well in the world of Zachdom. Other than the extreme amount of work I have and the lack of sleep I've been getting, I'd consider myself in pretty great shape. All for the Jan 10 journey to the tourney!

Doug call me back. Also, unless there is enough guys that want to go on Jan. 10th then we will not go. Also we will be playing at the Rec anytime after 7:30 tommorrow instead of practice

Edited by author 12-09-2003 01:56 AM
Also, we will practice that first week that we return. Guys we are now into conference play, so we need to step up, and start making it to practice, and playing to our potential. So have a good break, and when you return be ready to play. And unless you have school work, the team expects you at practice next semester/

I'm up for the tourney too. But I'll have to meet you there unless you have practices planned b/c WT is only an hour from home for me. See you at the Rec. later.

I have not heard from enough players that say that they can make it to the WT tournament. I do not think that would be a good start for us this spring since we are having a little commitment issue as it is. We need to have a few practices with everyone there begining the first Tuesday when we get back from break. Meet at that time and figure everything out.

Kevin email me doug.babington@ttu.edu make sure to leave a contact number. Doug

I'm not sure if I'll have enough time to fit volleyball in with my schedule. I'm taking 16 hours so far next semester and depending on certain events that might increase to 18, on top of that, unless my parents loosen their chokehold on my financial throat, I'll probably have to get a job. We'll see what happens.
< replied-to message removed by QT >

Brad and I are down for playing in the tournament at WT. I speak for Brad in saying that we are always up for any practice, match or tournament. I hope that everyone has a good break and please be safe.

Hey James, you do what you have to. We would like you to stay with us, but you have to do what you have got to do. Just keep me informed about your decision whenever you find out more definite your plans.

Hey all of the guys that want to go to WT. I am going to be calling all of you within the next two days seeing if you are still interested in going. And for anyone else that might want to go and has not said anything else, call me at 441-2801 in the next two days. Me and Doug will be deciding whether we are going on the amount of people that i talk too and that say they can. We need at least six, so if you see this message before i call you, call me. If you cant go please do not say that you can because if i costs anything, we cant afford to waste any money on false promises.

Kevin, I dont think I am going to be able to make it to the tourney. But if something changes and ya'll are going I will let you know as soon as I can

I'm all for going to the tourney that weekend. All i need to know is what times, and when do i need to be there. but ill gladly go

Oh yeah Kevin, my cell number 832-687-1256, and my dorm number is 724-1092, so now everyone can get my digits!

Kevin, Get with me next we before wed. I am leaving in a few min to go to a family thing for the weekend. Then Leave Wed for convention. Talk to you then.
Doug

Hey i have two finals tomorrow, one at 7:30, and the other one is at 1:30 so i can come after the 1:30, so that will be around 2:30 or 3:00. If i need to come earlier then i can, but i would rather just study in between.
Let me know and i will see you tommorrow.

Hey guys, look at the tournaments link, i updated it with all of the tournaments that we will be traveling too next semester. Look at the schedule, and mark those dates, and let me and Doug know if you cant attend one as soon as you know.

Chase, as far as i know we are going to the tournament, so if you can go just let us know. For all of those that know they are going, we are going to be practicing as many days as we can before. I will know dates after i talk to Doug, but if you plan to go, you need to plan to go to practice, i dont want to go down there and not do well. So make you can make it to the practices. They will be no earlier than the tuesday or wednesday before we go (Around January 6,7,8,9,10-tournament).

For all of the guys that wanted to go to the tournament, be checking on the website in the nest week. If by Christmas they dont get back to us, because they havent emailed me or doug back about whether they are still having it, but if they dont get back to us then we are not going. I will leave a message up as soon as i know what the status is, and when we will practice.


Everyone have a good holiday, and safe travels

Kevin, you left me off the roster dude! I'm just joking it doesn't matter. But i am interes
