Group Practice Commentary - December 4th, 2011

Standing L to R: Bernard, Gustavo, Dianna, Ileah, Ed, Glenda, Faviolo, Wendell, Jeremy, Erwin

Kneeling: Daniel, Angelo, Greg, Paolo

The Super Bowl should be permanently played in San Diego, hands down... we have the best weather in the Country and this is something we can boast out loud as San Diegans.... the Chargers might suck, the Padres might suck, and thus our hometown has no major sports championships to claim ( other than the Little League World Series a couple years ago), but DAMMIT ALL.... we have the best weather in the World!!! Hint, Hint... - maybe a major FCS Kali Gathering should be hosted in San Diego in the future! So to all our FCS Kali brothers and sisters across America and internationally - throw the idea out to Tuhon Ray ! "wink wink"

So is it getting boring how regularly I mention how beautiful our San Diego mornings are even when the weather is what us spoiled San Diegans call too warm or too cold for our warm blooded tastes! This morning was a brisk but very sunny 38 degrees... BRRRRR! That's cold for us! Today I broke out the sweats and a long sleeve undershirt, Bernard had his thermals, and most of us had some sort of sweats attire. Group Practice has been the same of late, stressing foot work, stick speed and handling, form, and Level 1 curriculum. Manong Rich may want to test some of us out on Level 1 Curriculum, I'm not sure if he's eager to test us out as an end of year goal, or if he's just looking for winter entertainment, probably both! LOL!

Mng. Rich's Level 1 testing has been famously or maybe infamously reputed to be interesting to say the least, for sure it will cover the Level 1 Curriculum, but fellow San Diego Group Crew... please view the Youtube video of Mng. Rich's Level 1 test below, you'll see what I mean. I post it not to shy anyone away but to be forewarned and prepare yourselves mentally and physically, who knows what our Manong Rich has in store for us. FCS Kali San Diego Crew - practice and be prepared! Also before I sign off, San Diego GP saw 4 new participants, a shout out welcome to: Ileah, Dianna, Faviolo, and Greg, we hope you enjoyed your experience with us and hope you all become regulars!

Maraming Salamat,
