I dont think we will get a full understanding of what kind of changes are in store until the aftermath.



Good Morning all!


Dan, news seems to get worse daily!


Also, if the break draft doesnt pick up, the cards we get will be vintage before we get them...


:lol:

Took another sick day.
Why wasn't the well capped 4 weeks ago, BP? Sadly, greed.

Morning fellas. Feeling very tired today after two night of games, lots of playing outside with the boys, and my tonsils flaring up. Another game tonight and tomorrow. Ugh. :D

This might be boring but I wanted to talk (brag) about my baseball squad. Gavin's team remains undefeated, winning 8-7 last night. Our record now is 4-0-1. Lots of games left (10), but the boys are showing great progress in their abilities and that to me is most important. We transitioned them in Game 4 to overhand pitching instead of underhand. All for the most part have done excellent with the change. Some were having a hard time at underhand, but even those kids are getting a hit each game. To me that's amazing seeing their progress. And last night in the last inning, up by one run, the boys made two infield ground out plays to save the game that I'm still giggling about. :shock: :D Ok enough about that. I'm just really proud of them.

Good morning.. slept in today as I am going to the M's game at noon. Since I am sitting on 320 hours of vacation, 8 hours won't kill me.. Hopefully the M's can sweep the Tigers..

Have a great day!

That is a LOT of vacation time, Kevin! You deserve some time off. Have fun at the game!

For me, I am planning on putting another coat of paint on the front door and doing a little studying.

Looks like all I need on the final is 6 points (out of 75 possible) to get an A in the class!

That is AWESOME and in no way boring. Proud Dads are my favorite!

Congrats, Dave! Sounds like a fun time. I don't find it boring at all!

Thanks Doug! Fixed a little ;) It really is a blast. More work than I thought it would be, but the rewards make it worth the effort.

Thanks Andrew! 8-) Good luck on your final. Doesn't sound like it will be too difficult pulling off an A :lol:

Thanks Joe!

Good Morning Gents!!! Just got the house cleaned up and ready to hop on the ps3 for a couple hours until Jen gets home from volunteering at the zoo :D Went to the M's game last night with the wifey and a couple friends...saw Verlander get the loss and we won 5-3 :mrgreen: SUPER rainy couple of days here though. Just working on uploading TONS of pics from my new camera from the game/time Jesse and the gang were here, last nights game and some hiking photos from last Tuesday and yesterday.

Kevin - Have fun at the game dude!!! I would love to see a sweep as well. You taking the sounder??

Jesse - Guess what time lastnights game got over?? 9:35 :shock: We walked to the stadium from our place and back...made it back home at 9:58 :lol: The game I went to with you guys...didn't get home until just past 11:00pm :lol: Thanks for the card, ticket and fun note/package under the wiper blades :lol: 8-)

Andrew - Hola dude!!! How is life without math now...atleast after this last test?? Just remember...A is for Andrew :lol: :D

Joe - Morning Broseph :) How has this week been so far??

Dave(wide) - Sounds AWESOMELY AMAZING about Gavin and the team remaining undefeated :shock: Away from the team work and practice a lot of it does come from coaching as well so don't forget about yourself ;) 8-)

Hey Alex, don't strain yourself with all the "work" on the PS3! 8-)

I am in the enviable position of not really having to study for the next test. I will put in one hour and not a second more. 6 points should be pretty easy; I probably get two points just for spelling my name correctly on the test. :)

A gun rack. A gun rack? Shhhyeah, right. I don't even own a gun, let alone many guns that would necessitate an entire rack. What am I going to do with a gun rack?

Morning Alex! And thanks! I do have some great assistant coaches who've been to all the games, and they do a great job in between plays explaining to them what they could/should have done, working with the boys pre-game in batting, grounders, etc. There's now way I could do it alone. No way. But I will take credit as far as working on fundamentals in the practices before the season started. :D Sounds like you're having a good weekend. Enjoy the rest!!
