I'll play for sure (unless we have more than enough peeps)... but Carlos will be at work this Saturday morning and I already have plans.  I'll be at the game, but one day of practice for me is not going to dramatically unsuck my stick ball skills.   :cry:

Just go visit a batting cage and figure out how to hit the ball. If you want me to meet you there one night this week, that can be arranged.

Thanks for the offer, but I assure you that I know how to hit.  Before Brandon was old enough to play I used to always play baseball/softball with my Dad.  I played in school too.  I realize this is many many moons ago, but I can hit the ball, I promise.  ;-)

Oh, and batting cages scare the shit out of me.

I think me and Nick are gonna throw the ball around a bit before the game.

Here we go with the typical 719 dropout rate of 95%.... who is next?

You know how everyone signs up for everything and then slowly but surely people start having other things come up... we end up with like 25% of the original starting number.

Scott wasn't being an ass about it (unless I heard it differently than he intended) - but a lot of things that get planned end up having less people than originally planned.  Things come up for everyone at one time or another...

Hell, I'm in. Prefer outfield, but can play anywhere I'm needed.

Pretty new around here, my name is Adam. I'll be hitting some of the meets between now and then to get to know people better.

Hey babe if you look at the one I quoted I am not on there yet.  I was added before you read it.   ;-)

Swankidoodle.. . you didn't quote the last roster...

Posted: Thu Jul 20, 2006 8:53 pm is the last updated roster.

Shit my bad.  I missed it the 73 pages of "what size batting glove should I get" and "my landscaper is having a maternity class at her house that day" postings.   Its hard to keep up with this crap when you only get to view it like once a day (yeah I have actually been busy at work).

hahaha

I feel that way even when i don't have work to do.   :blinky:

[Barbie]

Uh-huh, trying to tell me I was wrong again when I was right!  Thanks Lindsey for pointing it out.  So not too many people have said they could be at practice.  Again, I can loan the boys out to fill positions, but I have to man the garage sale unless I can talk my neice into it.

[JettaGLXdriver]

Tell her we will buy her a soda pop and let her drink it.

WTF??!!! sorry we all dont have the weekend off. i HAVE to work. its comments like that, that START all the drama.

[Barbie]

Ya cause she owes us!  And we wouldn't be too far away if she needed us, also Claudia will be doing hers tomorrow.  How long do you imagine we will be practicing for?

Naa that comment does not warrant any drama.  Its a fact 719 has an incredible drop out rate.  Ask Pat about the Mt. Evans drive.

IMO the response is more of what drives the drama.  Come on, we all have witnessed the dropout rate at events... Seriously... half of drama comes from individual perception of the comment based on who made it.  When I read Scott's comment I laughed and thought, "true that homey"... honestly.  I wasn't thinking of every event that I backed out of and taking Scott's comment personally.

Also, another way to look at it... if you (you in broad, general terms) have never tried to organize an event for 719 it might be difficult to understand where people are coming from.  I have organized a couple functions and some functions I tried to organize, but they just never came together.  I feel that until someone has tried to put on a few events for the group and watched the plans fall apart around them based on lack of attendance that their perception might be different from those that have.

I am in no way implying that everyone should organize an event... What I am saying is that it is very difficult to do so and a lot of people who have tried and tried and tried and have been let down by the group have a negative feeling on 1) organizing events and 2) people who back out at the last minute (100% not directed at anyone)

Now I am thinking, "Please please please let this be taken the way I intend and please please please don't let things come undone here".

Wow, me and Swank said the same thing ... but how am I so damn wordy?? lol

I don't know.  I see where Ricco is coming from.  I read that and took a little offense.  If I have said I'll be there, I will be... even if it is at 1:30 AM.  my point is, does that make me one of the 5%?  I thought there are more of us who disserve credit.

However, I can see exactly where Swank and Lindsey are coming from.  I just want more recognition than 5%.  ya know?

[Barbie]

Hey to lighten the subject and back to the garage sale, I go outside to help a customer and Chris is helping the customer out by reducing the prices quite a bit.  I have been telling him all day to stop so this time he had to pay me the difference in price.  Think he'll stop now?  Crap!

Ahh shaddap..  As for drama.  It ALWAYS takes 2 to tango.

[Lindsey]

At least we can mostly see both sides, because yes, I can understand the opposite perception of mine.

For this one though, can we agree to not take offense, or, if we still feel offended go ahead and PM the person who offended you so that we can avoid any potential misunderstandi ngs?

That sounds like a good idea.  Nappy, Kordd, James, London, Pat, Linds, Nick, Nick, Nate, Rico, Anne, Dan, Brad, Taylor, Craig, Greg, Greg, Los, Egroll, wookie, fitz, Aaron you had better expect some PMs from me.    :mad:
