Quaffle Talk, Episode 11: The One With The Fabulous Pick-Up Lines
In this episode, the Captains discuss Albus Dumbledore and go places reasonable people just wouldn't go. From there, they move onto a discussion of Naughty Lines From Our Favorite Characters... and continue to move into scary places. We end with site news, a closing word and, for the first time, gag reel!

Site Down Time
We did have some down time this weekend due to hackers.  Please note that if anyone finds these hackers, let The Captains know so that we may feed them to the penguins that took over the Pitch a few weeks ago.  Those penguins are becoming very restless and the noise is really driving making The Captains more crazy -- which is not a good thing.

If you're still having any difficulties accessing the site, please contact The Captains.
