1. How long have you been involved with the sport of Grifball?
I have been involved in grifball since GBWL08. I played for FC-5 for my first half of the season and then my xbox got taken away so when I got back I was off the team. I joined Border Hoppers for the 2nd half and played 3 games for them. In GBWL09 I played for MURK SQUAD THUGZ. We went 10-0 and lost in the 3rd rounds of playoffs.

2. What kind of player are you?
I am an all-around player. I can be a good ball runner. I was used as a ball runner for MST and did pretty good. This season I am going to be my teams leading tank.

3. If you could change one thing about Grifball or its community, what would that be?
People should stop judging people just because they are young or are a squeaker. I was a squeaker and I was mainly harrassed every time I went into games. Even though I was harrassed I still played well and impressed some people with my skill.

4. Is there a player/team that has inspired your style of play?
The player that inspired me the most was hckyplyr20. Even though he isn’t known too well, he was the one who showed me all my stuff and helped me out. Also another player who helped me was crittenden51. He took me on his team and showed me what it was like.

5. Name one player who always gives you fits when you play against them. What makes them so difficult?
Every time I play I CITI I I always get a good match. The times I’ve played him we always kept killing the crap out of each other. Wat makes him good is his skill. When he faces off in tanking against me he usually wins, but sometimes I get lucky.

6. Name one player you think is underrated by most. Why?
ummmmmm.. The player must have to be Di3ng2LIV3. He is very good and he can play very well. Most people don’t know him but he is a good player to have on your team.

7. Name one player you think is overrated by most. Why?
Well II Flowers II is overated in my opinion(no offense). Most people think he’s great but every time I play him he usually doesn’t score that much. He’s good without a doubt but not as good as everybody says.

8. Besides Grifball, what other games/sports do you play?
I play lacrosse and I used to play football. The other games I play are madden 08, NBA 2K9, and NHL 08.

9. In your opinion, do stats matter in Grifball?
Somewhat. If u want to get into the all-star game then yes. But if you don’t really care then no.

10. If you could offer words of advice to rookie players, what would they be?
When you get your team together make sure you get with a high ranked team and play them. Also get in with a good group of people. Make your name known and give a team a good reason to recruit you.
