Slugged Monkeys

Game Recap:

In both games the Chug Monkeys (featuring several Chug Monkey Interns) showed moments of brilliance and grace coupled with many more moments of ineptitude and shame…deep, deep shame.

Post match Chug Monkey Dan appeared to be meditating for several hours on how to rid his teammates of their negative thought patterns. However it later became evident from his snoring that he was simply enjoying nap time.

Perhaps then the only solution is more coaching and then more practice. Believe me it works! Why the 2nd time Chug Monkey Dan got coaching, “Coach Scott” described him as marginally less shit than the 1st time. Success!



Season Record:

Inside the Chug Monkeys:

This week Dan used himself as bait and managed to reel in Katherine (aka Chug Monkey Intern Kat) for an interview. So let’s hear what the catch of the day has to say for herself.


Dan: Now Kat, when did you first truly feel like a member of the team?

CM Intern Kat: I think it was after Trent took me out for a beer. But I must admit, I’m not used to doing that at 10am on a Monday morning though.

Dan: Sounds like Trent was running a little behind schedule that day. Speaking of Trent, apparently he recommended you to be on the team, but after seeing your performances so far, I have to ask how many incriminating photos of him do you have, and with which animal?

CM Intern Kat: (Gasps in horror)

Dan: Nothing like blackmail for team spirit, but what I really wanted to say was I think to truly assimilate to the Chug Monkey way; you must eat, think and sleep volleyball like myself.
CM Intern Kat: Like that Sunday when you passed out on the court.

Dan: Well I must have been pushing my volleyball skills to the limit that day!!

CM Intern Kat: You had a bottle of Johnny Walker in your hand.

Dan: Well we were all out of Tequila. Now I’m sure when you signed up that Trent made you well aware that it’s mandatory for all team members to participate in our “Year of the Chug Monkey” swim suit calendar.

CM Intern Kat: Not a word!

Dan: Then how come I have this signed agreement form from you?!

CM Intern Kat: That’s clearly your handwriting!

Dan: Well noticed, if only your court awareness was as good!

CM Intern Kat: (Gasps in Horror)

Dan: Back to the calendar, I’m currently January through to August and Trent is MR Movember, so December is wide open. Perhaps you’re thinking a Christmas theme?

(Katherine Leaves)

Dan: Hey come back, I’ve already booked the costume and studio time!!!

Remember Chug Monkeys and wanna be Chug Monkeys, just like Dan persistence is the key. Keep this in mind and in your eyes the glass will always be half full… unless it’s around Trent at 10am on a Monday morning. Success!
