I used to be an outstanding softball player in my day. It's how I got my nickname which is my BO name. The advanced arthritis in my knees would sadly relegate me to managing only.

That's OK. I'll distract you ever at bat by holding up ice cream and cookies in the opposing dugout.

I use to play gold level softball when that was my summer job. Made just about as much doing that for 3 months as I did teaching all year.

My head is killing me.
The pain would be akin to driving cross country in a VW Beetle with Glen, FT and snoobs with them talking non stop and windows that can't open.

I think you should just go to bed. That sounds miserable.

Just got to the ballpark 99 degrees heat index 105 degrees. I hope it’s a quicker and more competitive game than the first 2 games of this series that ended 7-0 and 13-0. I am sitting in my nice air conditioned car until I have to clock in.

That sucks, my wife lost her ring and we are looking to get a replacement set. My original will have to be cut off my finger unless I can figure out a way to get my finger to shrink. It’s not from being overweight it’s just my ring finger has really swelled up.

There’s a trick with dental floss to get a ring off.

Certain little things about pregame stadium preparation bother me slightly. There ought to be a law against playing the same musical loop 3 days in a row let alone the whole season.

I’d go with moldy to see Mike Stick before I’d do that.

My wife didn’t know who Salman Rushdie was. Who the F over 20 doesn’t know who Salman Rushdie is?!?!?

Why don't you make a more useful call and get me in a stadium suite.
