FKA, as per your pm about the hat budget, I think we need to kinda put it to a bit of a vote. Like I said, I'm not much of a hat guy, so personally, I'm of the opinion that the less we spend on hats, the more we bank. But alot of you guys are hat people and if the hats are nice enough, you'll likely be more inclined to wear them. And it'd be pretty lame if the hats were crap and none of us wore them.
So with our total roster of 13 people each paying $100 plus Pete's cash of $500, we've got $1800 (in theory... still need to collect $400).
I don't know how much balls are, but I believe Uncle Chester mentioned in the neighbourhood of $60. And speaking of which, Junky, there is nothing in the info package about the ball place you mentioned earlier. I'll probably just go down there next week during the day and grab the balls.
League fees were $1350. Tack on $60 for balls and our cost is $1410. That means we have ~$390. Then take $140 of it and refund to Aeneas and SJ for last year's overages, so we're down to $250 max for hats. Anything less than that is a bonus. I'll leave it up to you hat wearing folk to decide. FKA, figure out how much the hats will cost and I can either write you a cheque or give you the CPSW debit card (ooohhhh aaahhhh!).
But see how long you can put off paying. Of the four people remaining to pay, one is paying on the weekend at practice, one indicated payment will come at the beginning of may, one already tried to pay me but I somehow overlooked the pm and I have now replied (so I assume that cash is pretty much available for pickup) and one is going to get back to me in the next week or so, but might be looking for a slight extension (which will be no prob, we'll just take longer to pay back Aeneas and SJ!!).
Looks like we're in business. Games start May 3 at 6:05

Holy $hit, we have a practice?

What about the idea of a bat bag or equipment bag that carries the Pete's logo? Do they really care how we advertise for them?

I second that idea. We could print a Nylon Pete's banner and hang it on the backstop above our bats every game. They'd get way better advertising.

whats everyone else's thoughts on this? I mean we could probably just to like digital post and get this done. and then next year whoever is the rotated captain can decide if we need new jerseys we can add the logo to that. Big league has some pretty good deals on jerseys.
Does the league have any rules against this though?
And whats the league policy on music during warm-up?

I would doubt there is a policy about either, FKA.

I don't think Kevin really cares what we do.
Wasn't it one of us that brought up the Pete's logo idea at that first get together this year? Not him?
He pays $500, we spend much much more all summer. That's the basis of the deal.
I agree with maybe waiting till next year, taking next years money and this years leftovers and maybe getting new jerseys or hats or what ever then.

I was wondering if it was us or Kevin that initially brought it up. I agree, scrub the logo for this year, continue to patronize the pub and look at it again next season (since we are probably going to need new jerseys anyway).
