Underdogs
Some time ago I actually owned and ran my own gym. It was tremendously fulfilling, and the people that came were amazing. All rather unique shall we say (there was one who dressed as a pirate!), but the nicest people you could hope to meet.

Unfortunately I was rather disorganised about the whole thing, and it wasn't really making any money. A huge corproate gym run by a total wanker tried to take us over, and they sent some hottie from the bank to check the accounts. Turns out that I needed to get $50,000 or I'd lose the gym. I was devastated - that gym was my life.

One of the members came up with a plan. There was a dodgeball tournament in Vegas with $50,000 first prize - talk about happy coincidences.

Somehow we muddled through the qualifying stages - none of us had played before. We did get some great coaching from an ex-professional - Patches O'Houlihan - but he got crushed under a casino sign. Bummer. I got an attack of the nerves after that, but after a pep talk from Lance Armstrong I was good to go.

We finally prevailed, and beat the team from the other gym in a thrilling final. I'd made a wise betting investment too, so I was able to buy their gym! Revenge is sweet. Plus I got to bone the hottie from the bank and her girlfriend!!

"I actually owned and ran my own gym"

Now, I know internet the internet geeks that are on this board, but no one who frequents here, would be gym-owning inclined.

Good film though!
