 Laughing can't help it, when you've got a gf, it beats the straight clubs hands down. better music, better atmosphere, nobody wants to fight you or hit on your gf. Maybe Chaos can do the justice of sending this to the general chat forum, but i'm done.

a simple comparison?  how so?


straight guy running successful gay club is equivalent to non-paddler running successful paddling centre.

Yes?


Why are you making the assumption that Guido is a non-paddler?

I didn't. It was a theoritical argument started by You and Chaos, Dario.

Getting back to this Dario thing.....what makes him one of the better coaches....has he ever coached a team to a top 3 finish???? How long has he been around???? Sheesh....where did he learn to paddle....has he even paddled before in his life????


Top 3 Finish as in overall? If that's what you're asking about, you're right Guido, from my knowledge he has never coached a team to a top 3 finish where it counts. He was the assistant coach to Roli last season when they won the Bronze in Comp A in Alcan. So I guess by your standards, any coach that doesn't place his team in a top 3 finish overall isn't worth listening to?
I pretty sure he's paddled before since I highly doubt DragonZone would be run by a non-paddler. Lately, I've seen him paddling in marathons around DragonZone... more often than not... usually with Asian women

I'm probably the last guy to qualify to speak on the subject but I know of Dario through a few paddlers on our team and from previous conversations with Team United's old coach.

From what I know, he used to coach Alpha Highschool's junior team back in the mid-90's and they've been quite a formidable team (1st place finishers 2 or 3 years?) compared to other junior teams at the time.

It also helped that he basically had Alpha's rugby team for his male portion of his teams back then... compared to most teams who had paddlers that weren't active in other sports.

Asian fetish huh....sounds interesting ......why Asian though.....Dario sounds like a European name.......must be a damn good looking guy too huh!!!!!....wow....I'd definitely keep the women from your team Moturismo away from him then.

Now that we know that Dario is Guido, I have only one thing to say.... "please, don't make me do seat pulls by myself..."
