2004 California Open kendo Championships

[Inouye02]

Thats right , heard it tonight at the SCKF board meeting , Plans are in the works to hold a Tournament around October 24, 2004
up North in Fresno,

So it looks like the SCKF, SCKO Federations will be invading the North....

[M.K. Kawai]

An Open Tourney :D

Did they say if it was open to everyone? If it is, I wonder how many people on this forum would like to participate?

Why wait three years for the next WKC.

MKK

[Inouye02]

All California Open tournament...

I will try to keep everyone updated as more info comes along ..

[M.K. Kawai]

Maybe my good buddies from outside the US will join us :D

MKK

[Inouye02]

the Canadian chick ?

[M.K. Kawai]

:D

We can make her an honorary SC dudette so she can be one of us :rolleyes:

You know... no longer lonely....

Hahahahahahahahaha :D

MKK

[Inouye02]

sit around afterwards and smoke cigars too..

[misterkurukuru]

man why even bother! everyone knows that the sckf will crush everyone! i feel sorry for the cckf because they stuck between two strong federations(and one gay one...scko). Well i would like more people to beat in shiais so that ic ould warm up some more...soooo bring it on!

[Hongsermeier]

Fresno??? Last I heard that was the murder capital of the US. Is there a dojo there? All of that said I do miss the chance to beat up on some old friends from up north.

[JSchmidt]

"man why even bother! everyone knows that the sckf will crush everyone!"

Or more likely...you'll come back here, whining about the refereeing, FOB's and whatnot when you didnt win.

[KhawMengLee]

Jakob mate, you don't need to be psychic to predict that one;):D

[Inouye02]

you forgot them eating bento ..

[misterkurukuru]

I am glad that guys that have never done anything in kendo are soooooo great that they can tell me how i am going to act...hmm..atleast i have something to whine about...I get far in tournaments. If i lose, i want to get hit by a clean point, not some crapy point. When you get to semi finals and finals, you dont want to lose by crap points. but at your level (the two mates...i hope its not time for you to mate), i guess most of the points are crap! gahahahahaha if i lose by i good clean point , i always say, "man i got toasted!" I just tell it like it is!

[KhawMengLee]

Hehe, from what you've posted so far Kurukuru it seems you are all talk, no substance.

Telling us how you smack down lower ranked students in your dojo is pretty hollow/shallow, when you seem to lose your tourney's.

'nuff said.:D

[nollaig]

I would say
“All talk and no trousers”

[Inouye02]

hey , wouldn't that be something SCKF winning both times next year .....

1st for revenge..

2nd for total domination..

yabba dabba dooo !!!!

[KATSUJIN]

well ...it seems mrkurukuru's linguistic skills are going 'sky-high'.....

[nodachi]

Hey kurukuru,

Winning doesn't give you a right to boast, boasting in general makes people sore losers or crappy and obnoxious winners.

The reason you get so much flak on the forum is that all you do is talk trash and never post any advice or threads that contribute to the learning of kendo. If you posted useful advice or comments or even useful questions, then people would be able to tolerate your constant boasting because at least part of the time you offered some comments that were worth reading and that benefit the forum. But you don't write anything constructive, hence, I will continue to find you as obnoxious as everyone else until you share some of that vast knowledge and experience you claim to have.

If you have useful knowledge to share, please do so, but all you have shown us is your big mouth, and nothing else...

Looking forward to learning something from you should ever feel the desire to post something useful,

sincerely
nodachi

P.S. Sorry for my rant, but many threads have gone into boasting tangents and many threads of no educational value have been created recently. It has been awhile since I have read something useful on this forum because of all these tangents.

I will go back to silently lurking now, just disappointed in the direction the forum has been heading lately...

...oh thanks, but no more please. One round of baloney sandwiches is all I can take.:D

[Inouye02]

well why dont you tell him what you have won then ? or is it nothing ?

[moocow65]

just here to confirm what kurukuru said. seems like KML doesn't believe him. i guess baloney sandwiches means he's lying? i don't know. anywho, i was there when kurukuru won second at nationals, i took a crappy-ass fourth, but whatever. go waynebow tigers!!!!! WUUUUUUAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAYYYNNNNNNNNNE!!!!!........ and you should know how the rest goes.

[M.K. Kawai]

Someone should bring a stereo there and play "Bohemian Rhapsody" when the Waynebow Tigers are out :D

MKK

[misterkurukuru]

I have a Queen CD in my car!

[m_french]

Kurukuru....... QUEEN ....THAT I WOULD NEVER OF GUESSED:beard:

[M.K. Kawai]

I got the Queen DVD at home!

If someone wants to set up a big screen there, I lend it to ya guys for the tourney :cool:

You can play "We will rock you" and "We are the champions" too :D

MKK

[m_french]

Kawai-sensei, i thought you grew up in Gardena....you're starting to sound like you've spent some time in the Bay Area.:beard:

[M.K. Kawai]

I grew up with water all around me and not a drop of it I could drink :D

I lived pretty close to Pearl Harbor when I was kid... it ain't the Bay Area, then again you guys did have Alameda nearby :cool:

BTW, Queen was a big thing during high school. During the assemblies in the gym we would stomp and clap in the bleachers to the beat of "We will rock you"! I can still remember the look on the admins faces when they tried to get us to stop :D

stomp, stomp, clap; stomp, stomp, clap; stomp, stomp, clap...

MKK

P.S. You can play "Under Pressure" to try and psyche out the opposition ;)

[Inouye02]

KISS for me..I just wanna rock all night and party every day ..

quay ludes and acid hits ...no wonder i'm all f...ked up ..

[Hongsermeier]

Must agree with Inouye2. First concert I went to in my life was KISS.

[m_french]

For me it was Led Zeplin or was it Aerosmith?!?!?!?!?! It seems like a looooooooooonnnnnnnggggg time ago!:beard:

[Hongsermeier]

french....yes a loooong time. You are sooooo ooooolllld. I'm suprised you can even remember names.

[m_french]

What did you say steve?:beard:

[Hongsermeier]

It will be ok big guy.( As I pat you on the head and feed you your soup)

Hehe... Are we going to do "basketball" type introductions with lights and music? :D

Tim

[M.K. Kawai]

Don't forget the Pyro too! :D

MKK

[yoonc88]

Oh my buddha, don't let Hongsmeier talk to you like that. Have you already forgotten about Yoon 3:16?

Stay massive my damie.

Yoon

[Hongsermeier]

yoon yoon...bring all the massivity you have, you will need it all to take on the south.

[Hai_hai]

2004? That's almost a year and a half away. Did you mean 2003?

[Inouye02]

no hai_hai ...

2004 is the planned year...

Yay! My achilles tendon would be healed by then and I'd be practicing full blast by then. I hope I take some people out before they take me out. :D

What? "The Yoon" is in the forum? haha. Brad don't worry about Yoon. He'll handle "so-cal massivity" with some special "yoonerooni" waza that he conjures up during practice. :D

Tim

[yoonc88]

Don't worry Brad, my massivity has become strong like a black hole. So dense that light can not escape its pull.

Then again, that can also backfire as it probably pulls the person's shinai more rapidly to my kote!

Yoon

[Hongsermeier]

Tim...It will be fun to have you back on the court by then. To bad were in different divisions.

Oh. Then, what's with all the hub-bub to generate 4 pages of replies. Is there no 2003 California Open?

[Inouye02]

[Hai_hai]

No need to do that. I'm not in California or near it. I don't have bogu yet either. I do look forward to competing (although I do know that is not the be all and end all of kendo as a certain Englishman in the past in a different topic mentioned) and hope to come out to California for a competition. Not for fun, learning or experience but to teach everyone out there a lesson that the East Coast is the Gunma prefecture of American kendo, bee-yotch. (just kidding)

[M.K. Kawai]

All riiiiiiiiight! :cool:

Gunma, huh. Well, come on over and we'll show you that the West Coast is the say all and be all of Kendo!!!! Hahahahahahahahahaha :D

Hai_hai, you can stop on over my place anytime. But don't waste all your energy during keiko, save some for atokeiko. That's when the whole lot of us put out our best stuff :D Then we can debate which coast is better over a brewsky :)

If I ever get a chance to go over there I'll look you up... Not for fun, to learn, or the experience but make converts out of everyone out there by using my Jedi Waza :eek:

"West Coast Kendo is superior to East Coast (Gunma Style) Kendo..." :D

Peace
