For the record: it was not my decision to leave the trash tournament; though I didn't exactly want to be there in the first place--I'm not a trash player and I would have preferred to leave Saturday evening, I had a football game to watch Sunday afternoon. In fairness to my teammates, when they decided to play in the Big Lots, I believe that they thought it would be something similar to the only other trash tournament they had ever played in: a quick round robin that starts early in the morning after a tournament and ends by early afternoon. This is partially my fault because I should have pointed out that it was my experience that Charlie starts all of his tournaments unusually late in the day. Regardless, we still returned to Tallahassee later than planned. If they had realized the way it was scheduled, I do not believe that they would have planned on participating. Chris is not without a point, it was unfair to the other teams, but my teammates honestly did not realize that the tournament would go later than 2 or so. It probably didn't help that they've never played against real trash players before and that we were still generally upset about the previous day's questions (which weren't Charlie's fault let me reiterate). Nevertheless, scheduling really was the primary issue. Speaking for meself, not FSU, Nathan Freeburg
