I posted this a few weeks ago, but the post appears to have disappeared in the thin air... Not sure what is up with that, must be some kind of blogger glitch and backup problem, not sure. Anyway, since my original post I have had an amazing amount of response.
On FaceBook my comment accompanying the link read "These kids put your garb to shame. Shame on you, you have just been beet by a 10 year old." and was apparently quite controversial. And wile controversy gets me the most traffic, that was not my intention, and the title was perhaps a bit misleading. So I would like to apologize if you clicked the link and were disappointed. I still think that some of these kids garb is quite inspiring, blue jeans aside. Simple? Yes, but sometimes less is more. Quite frankly, many of the kids in these photos do have better garb than many of our new people, my hope is that some of those sweatpants, t-shirt wearing fighters will be challenged to do better.
I think what really drew me in to this though was less the garb and more the photography. I love the richness and colour of these shots, and really wish I could see some photos like these for our sports, even only a few good ones like in this peace can go a LONG way. What would be better is if they were made readily available for promoting.
Well thats it, if you haven't seen what all the halbaloo was all about yet here is the link and let the rest of us know your opinion! http://www.rollespilsakademiet.dk/pdf/100000swords.pdf
I was one of the "stick jocks" "QQing" about it. And it's my same gripe from when I played paintball as a teenager. These kiddies get mom and dad to buy them a bunch of pretty stuff and then get used as some sort of standard. It's totally and completely lame.
