Hey all . . . I've missed the OPRO stomping grounds. After disbanding the Tonga Ikale Tahi after season 7, I went into hibernation, barely keeping up with training, and shirking off all my coordinating and consulting gigs. I had a player on Cook Island to "keep in touch" with my old OPRO maties, but they folded as well, leaving me without a connection to the Islands.
But thanks to the generosity of Middy, I'm back.
Looks like I haven't missed much . . . except nautilus selling his balls to bort and jumping on the strong-I slam bandwagon. Frankly, I'd expect that from Middy, not a class act like nautilus and WSI, but such was the state of the SIM in season 8 that even the best had to resort to exploits to compete against exploits. Frankly, I'm glad to have missed season-8 entirely, because while I understand the temptation, I could never have resorted to such shenanigans.
So, keep an eye out for Cajun again . . . and its good to be back in the old digs. May Bort bless us all in season 9 with a SIM that resembles football. May there never be another season with so many asterisks next to the "W's"!
