discovering new and exciting ways to lose

North Ridge Church 7
Neighborhood Bar 10


This loss wouldn't be so bad, except we had fans wait out a rain delay (no tarp, where's the ground crew?) and then still stick around until 10:30. right up until the very last out... which was made on a not so great call. pop fly, shallow left, outfielder running in, slide, ball hits the ground, snatched quickly, "out" should have been ruled a trap... but i think the ump had had enough. i know we had.

yet, out of no where, a one, mr scott shaw, charges the ump and yells, "bad call!" our whole bench was screaming, "throw him out! toss him!" which would have been the coolest thing ever. well, maybe not the coolest, but it would have been up there. ah, the competive spirit brought out so well by a simple game of softball

those big-shot lawyer types don't understand getting out and getting your hands dirty for a cause, even in the rain...sorry, i just remembered i haven't been outside my house/school/office for about 4 days. my bad.
