The Bad News Bears...

I had my first softball game for a league I am playing in for my friends business' team. We had so much fun, even though we lost the game 16-12. But hey, the other team was SO good. They actually play tourneys together. Also, it is a co-ed team, and you have to play even numbers of girls and guys every inning. No girl on our team has ever played softball, and every girl on their team had. So we did pretty well considering. I got on base every time, and ended up getting 5 runs (1 was for someone else's hit - I was the base runner). Anyway, it was a blast and I am so looking forward to Wednesdays now this Summer.

Lissa Lou and I were in charge of making the team jerseys. I did not get a picture of the group, but we all had our nicknames from our group of friends on our shirts. Here is a picture of my shirt:



The other names we had were DeeZee (Darren), Natty Lite, Rothi, Oscar, Leonard, Tank, Toppy, Dangle, Ringer, Bouchee, Francisco, I Dunno, DanO, Slim and BoYo...fun stuff. Lou and I spent 7 hours making the shirts...they do not look that intricate but they were a pain in the butt. Lou and Jason's daughter wanted in on the fun, so we made her a tanktop with her nickname "Bri Bri" on it, and we made Holland girl a onesie with her nickname "Dutch". I guess you could call them the team mascosts :)
