Good card, 3 mana seems a tad steep for a 2/2 but definitely worth it.

I never got into magic but a few weeks ago my oldest discovered Pokemon so she’s well on her way.

In Japan the suit fits right in but the Taiwanese will be in flip flops if at all possible...maybe a Polo shirt but that's about it

Yes, I was coming from Japan, and I had not gotten a briefing on local customs...

Well…

The heartbreak kids, aka “The Blazers”, make me want to drink like a fish more often than not, sending me on wanted benders. No actual benders, but boy do they make me want to drink like Dame at times!(heard a rumor he drinks like a fish)…

Hence…BlazerBender!!!

 

[tykendo]

I used to deliver carpet and tile for a well known company in the '90's. My real name is Ken. The back of my truck was dirty, and my buddies at another store in our company, wrote ty - ken- do on it. It sounded like taekwondo and i liked it.

Can’t we just start calling Dame “Slam Drunk”?

 

[Fairly-Hard]

I simply started a new account with a new improved name.
I was thinking fairly hard about what the new name would be and just like that it hit me!

 

[calvin natt]

I made mine up

Figured it was fairly hard for you to stay positive so you wanted a harder persona.
Fairly easy for me to say I liked the old fan better.

You must be very, very old to have made it up!

 

[barfo]

You must be very, very young to think that that would make him very, very old. Calvin Natt was born a mere 65 years ago!

The old fan argues too much.

I was about 7-10 years old when Natt was a blazer. No idea why but I loved him. I loved all of them but I thought Calvin Natt was the coolest. And had the best name. Wanted to name a son Calvin but wife vetoed. He and Kenny Carr. And of course Jim “he moves so well without the ball” Paxson. I feel like every time I watched him on TV (which was rare back then) the TV guys would say that. Stuck with me forever lol

Calvin ended up in the Mortuary Business in Denver after his career was over. Talked to him once at a Cub Foods in Aurora.

It's a play on my surname. All opposites.

[Kano John]

I frequent the Philippines fairly often. Filipinos call Americans AmeriKanos or Kano - hence KanoJohn.

 

[inconceivable]

Pretty sure many can guess mine. Yup! That's exactly where I got it from.
