hi guys -
just got back from arizona, where i played for berry's of san diego in the over-58 tournament. it was on one level a great week - berry's, the defending champs, went 6-0 in pool play but lost to san antonio (with a number of my old friends playing), 2-1, in a finely pitched semi-final game. sa...
We, as a league, ought to begin ID'ing ourselves when we leave messages.
I don't want to have to remember who anyone is by their Bulletin Board nickname. And others mentioned it at the meeting Wednesday night. I don't know, and have no inclination to remember, who all of you are who use nicknames.

i'm wondering if someone who took notes at the league meeting - and the managers' meetings that followed - will be good enough to write them up and tell everybody what happened?
i was there, didn't take notes, but can tell guys that we elected a new board - without, for the first time in what? 13 years...
To the Board,
How about including a Rookie of the year award. In your next meeting, would you please table this request.
Really enjoyed my first year playing in the league. Took me 28 years to play baseball again, but the effort was well worth it. Met a good bunch of players, and have had the good fort...
The time has come to stop talking and start acting. The meeting is tomorrow night and we need to make the time for this league. Let's take an active interest in all of the workings not just reap the benefits of showing up to play.
Here's to hoping that we all can attend.
Well the other Albany Florida team in the 47+ Metal division didn't keep up with our our other Albany brothers who won the 45+ Wood Bat Championship. We palyed tough most of the time and had some bad luck as well when the only time
it rained in Florida during the tourney in the past 9 years it rained out a g...

All are encouraged to attend. Managers and players. Let's take an active interest in our league and show support for our pr...
George got out of surgery earlier this afternoon but is still sedated (not from anything I gave him) and resting "comfortably" in intensive care. From what I understand, valve replacement was ruled out and repairs were able to be made to the damaged valve. Hopefully he'll be up and turning handsprin...
We have 5 guys so far for Orlando. We need at least 7 or 8 more.
Even if your wife won't let you go you might know someone who is free to do what he wants. Please let me know so I can call him.
And oh by the way, Puerto Rico is in Febuary and Las Vegas is coming up in March.
Snow, cold, grey skys,.........
Please let me know who is interested in going to Orlando in January to play some ball. The dates are the 12th - 15th. I'm looking at an over 35 wood bat team but will take a team younger if we have to. There's a 3 game minimum then the playoffs and championship. Prices are from 230 for baseball only or 276 and u...
