Aaand lastly: Thrashers Photopalooza!

This'll be a semi-long post, b/c I've got game photos, and I've got photos from Ft Benning. So let's get a move on. Photos from all over.

Ft Benning first! Photos from the Thrashers site, with a lovely article by Ben accompanying. These are in no particular order.

I sincerely hope they did not fire while holding their weapons like that.
That's injury just WAITING to happen...Worst. Form. Evar.

Just a reminder that Kovy served in the Russian Army while playing for Spartak.
It shows.

Thrashers and kids - redefining "cute"

Blatantly ripped from the Thrashers website, but so god damned cute, it was impossible to resist.

The Thrashers hosted a special Home for the Holidays party on Monday, 10 December, at Phillips Arena for 75 children for the Boys & Girls Club of Metro Atlanta, and SafeHouse Outreach. Please click either of the links if you would like to volunteer your services, or even make a donation. Every little bit helps!

Boulton sees what you did there.

Kovy scores on Kozzie, something you'll probably never read again.

Who knows what's going on? But Kovy's smiling, so all is right with the world.

Kari: What? Oh, I couldn't possibly have another bite... Well okay. But just one!

Ex: Dude! I made a cupcake! With a face! How cool am I?
Cute kid: You're nuts, bro. You gonna eat that?

White explains the secrets of cupcake decorating.

Perrsy makes friends every-damned-where he goes.

Shortly after this photo, one kid nailed Slats in the head with the dodgeball, à la Calvin & Hobbes. Sadly, there are no photos.
