COT

Moleskin:

• Impressive amount of chatter yesterday on GroupMe, not sure if due to lack of production related to eclipse or the frank and beans on back from partner carries – Either way great to see it and refreshing to see new people chiming in and even some lurkers jumping in
• Was able to capture brief video of Gatorcub working the jump rope today – simply amazing

• Unsure if the short jump rope or lack of coordination led to Dough boy having to use the virtual rope
• Toast and Swamp impressive showings for the 2.0’s way to keep pushing us old and real old farts to try and keep up
• Deflated came out for day 2 and even showed us his Patriots Super Bowl Ring  (picture below)
