You're right, I never thought of that. we should just call "modified," "Sack-Religious"... just kidding.

...But really I didn't ever think of that, I guess I was just trying to recreate modified without even realizing it.

Well, I think there would be more interest in Sack-Religious if there really was something more to it... Don't give up before you even start!

Also, you didn't mention anything about shredding with us in Boise tomorrow (later today actually, since it's 2:30 am). If you REALLY want to learn footbag, kick with Jim Penske!!! Jim just got back in town and we just finished up a 2 hour session, one of my best since recovering from injuries and sickness.... Jim hit his usual ridiculous shredlyness that I can't keep up with - One run must have had 7-8 triple dexes with several back to back. I was happy to hit a new move:

Ducking symposium smog :).

Peace.

Yeah sorry I just made a mental note of it and didn't say anything.
My flight arrives at 6:55 so I won't be able to shred this wedsday but, I'll totally be there next wedsday, and every other one after that. :P

Now thats not a bad idea! Everytime I go to a tourney and meet someone in person for the first time from modified I'm all excited...and those of us on here are the ones dedicated enough to be called sack-religious... talk to Brad about it, and add an option to your poll "To make all of modified sack religious". I don't think you could find a way to get any more people involved in it than that...

Hope you have fun with Jim, Daryl, and Sunny :-) They're some of my favorite footbag friends, and I promise you, they've taught me a LOT.

Peace,
Bum

Can we really chage modified to be called sack-religious 'cause that would be pretty cool, and it would make more sense, Modified isn't just about shoe modifications (I assume that's where it got its name).

Hey moderators or administrators or whatever this could be awsome, think about it...

I think modified got it's name because it's hosted on the modevia servers actually. Don't think it has anything to do with shoe modifications.

You edit the poll by editing your first post in the thread.

Nice now all we have to do is chage the topic of this thread, so we can get lots of opinions

What up with this "nate is silly.ca" thing? That has nothing to do with this devoted footbag community.

It would be great if you could take some photos of you being silly so we can use them as the logo when the name gets changed. Thanks Nate :D

I'm sorry, but what? NateISsilly, but I don't think that should be the name of our site. I also don't think sack-religious should either. That sounds so childish. It's a cool catch phrase but it would take a long time to get accustomed to it (at least for me). For me, modified has been modified for 3 years, and randomly changing the name doesn't make much sense. Especially not to sack religious. Something else, sure. But I think that if we were going to do that, there should be a separate thread from this one for brainstorming names. Just my 2 cents.

I think, we should leave it the fuck alone.
Like bigdirtyfoot said it is a good catchphrase and pun, but thats all.
Just imagine meeting someone at a tournament and saying "are you from modified?" Yeah that sounds cool, but "are you from sack-religious". No, it sounds like a less professsional forum thought up by some kid whos just bought webspace.

I don't care what the site is called, I just thought it would be cool to call it sack religious, but whatever, its already called modified, leave it at that.
