for tonight. madmax and i, along with a couple other guys, coach a little league baseball team. it's been discussed in some random thread three months ago. anyway, some of these kids have never played before this year and we're honestly not very good, even though they've shown signs of improvement all season. we finish the regular season 0-whatever, with two of our last three games being very winnable. anyhoo, that's way too much background. first playoff game tonight. first storm win. shock. the. world!!!
very competitive league...every team makes the playoffs...but they divide up into gold, silver and bronze. so the top 8 teams or so are in one bracket...the next 8 in another...the next 8 in the bottom rung. needless to say, we were in the bottom rung. but last night was pure joy!!!!! i don't think i'll ever forget that.
My wish for your team, dudes, is in the small print NEXT TO THE PITCHER : Spoiler *Based on Mexico's Monterrey team's 1957 David-esque perfect game win in a little league championship game

Wait a minute... wait a minute... the OP was from last night... AFTER the last game of the season? And you've already lost the first playoff game? I'm confused! Please explain the status for me, GoogleRocks.
we won our first playoff game. i think he was hoping it would rub off on the rockets in some mystical way...i was hopingn so too. it didn't.
It reminds of Knocked Up- JONAH Hey, Crockett. You still partyin’ with Tubbs these days? MARTIN Come on, man. I’m getting it from all angles here. I don’t like it anymore. JONAH I know, I don’t either. Was it weird when you changed your name from Cat Stevens to Yusuf Islam? MARTIN Yeah, it was really awkward. JONAH All right, man. I got to take off. See ya, “Scorsese on coke.” Jay GROWLS loudly. MARTIN What’s that? JAY Chewbacca. It’s, you know, it’s Chewie.
