July 20, 200817 yr Author Thanks again to everyone who turned out and made the second annual softball game a success. WSI didn't have as many people show up, but we definately had more fun this year than last because of the conditions. I can't wait to do it again next year!!!

July 21, 200817 yr Author QUOTE (RibbieRubarb @ Jul 19, 2008 -> 10:41 AM) Well...my director called us into rehearsal today (it was TBA) after a not so inspiring rehearsal last night. I was hoping and working on getting out of it but I can't. So I have to be at the theatre from 12:00 til 5:00. Sorry guys. It sucks. I want to play softball. Its best that way anyway... that fur would have REEKED after that much rain.

July 21, 200817 yr QUOTE (Gregory Pratt @ Jul 21, 2008 -> 01:13 PM) Pffft. Long drives rock! Hey GP, when do we get to see your game article?
July 21, 200817 yr When it's done. (Probably a couple of days. I might write it tonight.) (I have to re-construct my notes because they got watered on.)
July 21, 200817 yr Hey guys, it was good playin' with you. Well, most of you. Well, ok, all but Pratt. I'm sure Pratt will be ok next time if he remembers his meds.......(just bustin' your chops Greg, back off). It was little bit wet, just a little bit, but no blown ligaments were experienced which is a good thing. I think next time, we should play in January or February, it usually does not rain then! For those of you haven't seen it, I posted a picture on WSI of the participants while we gathered around the Pitcher's Mound (which was 10 feet under water). I tried to copy and paste it here, but it would not paste. You can view it here. http://www.whitesoxinteractive.com/vbullet...p;postcount=149
July 21, 200817 yr ...I can't comment in full because the kinds of things that get said at Softball games are the kinds of things that get people banned on forums! Great seeing you again, and a good game, too! Edited July 21, 200817 yr by Gregory Pratt
July 22, 200817 yr Those of you just tuning in and will be attending next year's game, the strategy is, hit it to Pratt.

July 22, 200817 yr It might be a full week before I finish the article, but it'll be here within 10 days.
July 22, 200817 yr Clearly 2k and Kap didn't realize that Pratt and I at SS were doing our best impressions of Jose Valentin.

July 23, 200817 yr As a condition to play you guys next year we make the following demands: 1. Pratt plays middle infield for Soxtalk. 2. Pratt gives WSI our locker room talk before the game. He's a tremendous motivational speaker. Really.

Hmmm......I know a White Sox fan site which would take him off our hands in a trade. He'd fit right in with them.......I just don't know who we'd want from them.
