Obvious to you . You ' re right . It would absolutely be lost on someone who started watching the episode in the middle and had no idea why Captain Bogomil was on the bridge of the Enterprise . Everyone else understands that Captain outranks Commander and with that rank comes the authority to do things like this . <| sep |> You ' re not being a dick this is the answer I was looking for . I was skating as soon as I could walk and I played at a D 3 college a few years back but the only team I ' m on now is a beer league team haha . We do have some talent in the league lots of former college guys , a handful of junior players looking for more ice time , even a guy who was offered a spot on an AHL team but turned it down because they were trying to trade him out of state . I have absolutely no problem keeping up with a lot of higher level players but I ' m not a standout performer . I ' m just a 6 ' 4 defender who knows how to use his length . I ' m in northeast Ohio and I would be looking to check out the monsters tryout . I just wasn ' t sure what kinda talent is showing up at a open tryout and was curious . I don ' t want to get in the way of the guys fighting for those spots but I think it would be a pretty cool experience . And most likely a reality check on where I ' m at skill wise as well as conditioning . But the way you describe it I won ' t waste their time so I can half ass chase a dream I don ' t see happening . No way am I in pro shape .
