Bob doesn't like to say this but his secret to success is Yuma's spring water.Bulldozers wrote:Vic, it's great to have another old guy in this league—and an Edinburgh resident, no less! I was just in your lovely city for the Fringe Festival back in August. Saw some great plays, enjoyed afternoon tea at the Balmoral, hiked around the Bridges at the Firth, toured the "secret gardens," and finally payed to see the Tattoo. My first time in Edinburgh, back in 1976 when I was in an acting company, I couldn't afford the show. It was great to revisit the UK's grandest city.
Like you, I joined PEBA by taking over a losing club. Took me eight losing seasons (several of them record setters!) to get the Bulldozers into the playoffs. So if you want advice on the long slow process of building, let me know.

Which he’ll sell to any club for a draft choice. Just ask.

If his “spring water” is 90 proof or better, we’ll need to talk ...

In Yuma, what is left of the river, ferments nicely.
