Softball: Breaking Bad (A Rare Slippage in Communal Cohesion)

Mes petits choux-fleurs,

My team slathered Steve Powers' in a shamelessly spicy blend of herbs, courage and whoop-ass, 10-8. Yet the real story is that this particular game was actually played out at all (as joyous and taut as she ended up being). Indeed, we were hit by one of those rare waves of organizational calamity that remind those of us in the 'make-this-happen' biz that not only is life with people, but truth be bluntly told, sometimes people are difficult. Who woulda' thought?!

Of course no cascading cumulation of same-day cancels, über-late arrivals, outright no-shows and cantankerous scattered squabbling could ever truly break the insoluble love of a recreational organizer for his cherished aerobic kin, though just for future reference, its synergistic effects can apparently obliterate the vital frontal lobe of said organizer's delicate little brain. Fortunately, I'm all about neurocognitive recovery, and therefore there will be a game at Codorncies this Sunday at 11, IF I get enough commits by this Friday morning…Raymond
