If I had a personal cheering section, I would bring it along with me too.

He's got the fans, now he should work on getting a sound system to play his own theme music each time before he gets up to bat.

WhiteTom · 05-15-2008, 11:15 AM

Maybe I'll just go all out and bring a screen and everything. I could bust this out every time he goes up to bat:

I'd totally be up for that tournament if I wasn't out of town already. Drunken golfing in Victoria>>>drunken baseball in Lyalta.

I thought you were off the sauce? Although long weekends are the loophole when dealing with doctor's orders.

Alright, shes in but she doesnt really want to play softball. Heh, we'll stick her in the outfield somewhere.

I was told for two weeks. It's not quite two weeks yet but I'm invoking the "May Long" clause this weekend.

Rhettzky · 05-15-2008, 07:23 PM

So what's the good word for this weekend? It's going to be awesome weather. We should definitely try and get something going for Sunday afternoon.

Can we get a camping place up wind from the Central team though?

I know you would be in if you could bud. I think you should come out just for the hell of it! Relax, drink some beer... lots of other moms for the Mrs to do a show and tell with the newborn.

I am seeing some posts here (and a couple PMs) that lead me to think that you guys can get a team together, potentially with the help of a couple bodies from the Twins team in our league.

This is a very casual tournament. 6 guys, 4 girls format.

We play a round robin within a four team group (three groups). Seeding from there goes into Sunday in a single knockout (A, B and C). So you play at least four games, perhaps five.

It's pretty much 50% ball, 50% party, depending on how hard you play ball! Just a lot of fun.

It's non profit. After costs, all other funds are used for prizing. Camping is free, just BYOB (and food and firewood). Washrooms are open 24 hours a day.

If anyone has any questions, post them here!

And on the OOT scoreboard for tonight, our Taz Tornadoes team beat the Advanced Bats 29-16 in a slugfest. Puts us 2-0 in the Central league.

KevanGuy · 05-15-2008, 11:22 PM

Looking forward to it Shawn! If we can get a girl to play instead of my gf that is probably a good idea but either way we are both going to be there.

I'd still like to get out on Sunday or Monday. Who else feels like having some pops and getting some practice?

FireFly · 05-16-2008, 10:13 AM

I would perhaps be down for that... My hand is better... not sure if I should risk it though.

You could be catcher/beer drinker.

Rhettzky · 05-16-2008, 11:15 AM

Well we could hit up the batting cage this weekend if there's not a lot of interest. The cage at Shouldice is open from 10am-9pm on Sunday.

That works too.

chid · 05-16-2008, 05:55 PM

I'd like to do the batting cages so I'll probably be there

Aeneas · 05-16-2008, 06:09 PM

I, sadly cannot make practice or cages. However I am always up for beverages!!!!!

If people are going out after let me know.

Or if you are interested in an ice tub full of beer, and meat on the grill; you could come back to my place. That way I rest knee AND drink beer.

Nota bena: I extend this invite after most have left for long weekend. This is for the poor saps who are staying in town.

Just duck on the main drag, Discovery is now known for drive bys!

Rhettzky · 05-16-2008, 06:45 PM

That all sounds really good to me!! Let's pick a time. Say 2pmish at Shouldice and then bevies at the pub or troy's house after? So far we have me, Junky and Aeneas as go's and Chid as a maybe. Is anyone else sticking around this long weekend?

FlamesKickAss · 05-16-2008, 11:27 PM

i might be down for that. building a garage and want to golf this weekend
