oh, I just let DH read Pant's post (it made him laugh in agreement) and he wishes everyone to know that he led the comeback that I glossed over. He had a high pop up that a guy dropped (he really should have caught it) and then eventually scored.
That's probably the kicking sequence I yelled at him for kicking bouncy balls.

Tell him we're impressed by his mighty pop up. Spent three years with a kid on son's little league team who had a crazy mom who yelled at him every time he got up to bat not to pop up. Umpire kicked her out of a 10 year old all star game for other things besides heckling her own kid.
lol, I shall.
I feel like I just had a vision of future CG
hopefully not, I only yell at DH. I only provide supportive words to all other teammates.
oh one of my foul ball kicks was because I kicked it off my knee. The pitcher had bouncy pitches.
That's bad popular Jethro Tull.
This is good Boxster dorm room Jethro Tull. I could probably sing along to half the tunes on this album.
Damn, now feel like spinning vinyl.

Had a very fun night. Today is my mom's birthday. Brother and I wanted to do something special as this year she is 60. Went to my brother's house in Des Moines. He grilled up some sirloin steaks and we had a very nice meal with my mom and aunt. My mom is my hero and so nice to celebrate and see her happy.

TIL, a supportive word is.....whoar.
Should I be alarmed because cg kicks balls on a regular basis?
I mean, I'm all about loving who you want to love, but as a straight male, I don't see what my end goal would be in sending one to a dude.
Should probably clarify the dislike is because give the man his whiskey!
I, for one, welcome all Fort Dodge overlords.
Frank Deford is a great writer but he doesn't use whoar enough in his writing and never intentionally uses balls as an intentional or unintentional euphemism.
When we recently visited my cousin's daughter at ISU, it was her birthday. Mom had me pick up one of those giant cookies that read "Happy 18th Birthday!" The first thing she did was alter the 18 so it looked like a 19.
Thanks. It's been a really stressful couple of weeks at work. I needed this.Kickball time!
So we got going tonight and I decided to be all take charge as the first veteran to arrive and got all the noobs intro'd to each other and out on the first field to practice. The league guy normally does a "here be the rules" for the first game.
About five minutes later an ump starts grouching that we have to get off the field because if we warm-up, other teams get to warm up and the games will never start on time.
For reference, we were using my ball and were there at 6:15 for a 6:30 game. Friend is like next time we'll play out in the grass and good luck trying to kick us out!
Also, no rules going over so we were at the wrong field and everyone had to walk far the other direction. Nice job, CG.
We get started, first guy got on. Then I kick. I got on! They threw the ball at me and they missed! I got on first! DH was right there like nice job, you're safe*. A guy kicked and it went really far, I got all the way to third and friend coach held me there.
Then a friend kicked, but it looked perilous so I hadn't started going. Friend - WHILE RUNNING TO FIRST - starts yelling "RUN CG!" By that point base coach friend was like OK go so I ran and scored! I got the first run of the game! We joked that runner friend would have been safe if she'd focused on running and not yelling at me.
Then some other stuff happened, I helped get an out at first, then was definitely probably responsible for 2 of the 3 runs other team scored in an inning to pull ahead 5-2. Whoops. A dropped catch and sort of drop at 2nd. Well, on the latter I just didn't the person out, the person running home wasn't my fault. Oh, but I didn't throw it to first or something. IDK. We have a new husband-wife team and they were really good. Think they got on every time they kicked. She had really good ground balls and he had low bomb kicks.
So I kick two more times and foul out, sad times. But others do better and we are tied 5-5 at the end. Dh kicks. Gets on first. Next person kicks. Ground ball. They throw and tag the runner out. But DH gets to 2nd. Next person kicks (my coworker). Same thing - but even though they tagged coworker, the ball got away a bit so DH ran for home.
He scored. We won! He performed well under pressure
*I definitely, 100% felt the ball graze my right hand. But DH didn't see it and they called me safe so I went with it. But I feel I must confess.
