Day 30 (off day)

Today's Notes:

I spent today getting a bit of rest and mainly being under-the-gun with work that's backlogged. But that didn't stop me from checking in, yet again, on the announcement of tryouts by the Georgia Force.

Nada. Not yet, anyway. But I did find this page which lists all of the tryouts for all of the teams this year, as they are announced. So that's cool.

I also did a bit of research on the tryouts from years previous. And judging from what I've seen, I think that I can at least walk into the tryout and not look like a total scab... I just don't know how I'm going to look compared to the actual athletes that are going to show up.

I also did a little research on the tryout process of various teams. For Tampa Bay's open tryout last year:

"In 2007 three players, John Capel, Hank Edwards and Khalid Naziruddin earned an invitation to training camp from the open tryouts. Naziruddin went on to earn Storm Rookie of the Year honors for the 2007 season."

That's kind of encouraging. As far as the Force goes, they have signed players from open tryout 3 of the past 5 years. That's pretty cool, too.
