Day 24

well boys we have done it. We have found our bats!!!!!! i have no idea where they were lost to but apparently they were somewhere in the valley. The combined temperature of the two days, 67, doesnt even match the coldest day while in florida. Anyways, im glad we beat the shit out of those NERDS!!

For the rest of the season, according to Dan, Deuces is now banned. It is WAYYYY too distracting to the batter, especially when he is righthanded and has his back to us, and the only thing we say the entire time is, "PULL." Yeah your right, totally messes up the College Athlete's focus.

Thank you to almost all the fans for coming out for the opener, it was really appreciated.

Day 23

ok im getting straight to it. I HATE losing. i hate it. I hate it more than cheating women, more than Brussels sprouts, more than womens sports, more than AJ pierzinski, and even more than Carthage. Look, people can say stop pressing but thats just code for you guys fucking suck. so how about this, have fun. Beat fucking ass. as long as we do the fundamentals right, everything else will come. we're barely a quarter of the way through the season so no worries, just have fun and think about the women's track team, just try not to say anything about them while we're on the bus...

Day 22

Not really much to say about this weekend. we did a good job taking 3 of 4. i really wish the umpires all weekend wouldn't have been so terrible. But hey, that's what you get from OAC umpires. oh and just throwing it out there, as long as time hasn't been called, you don't have to step off the mound to appeal a runner leaving early. Just throwing it out there... Oh and chat roulette combined with #35 = Greatness!!!

Day 21

We have safely arrived back home and yes! both our house and the green house are still standing!! mark one in the win column for us. Anyways, Dayton sucks. 3 hours in traffic is not my idea of a good time. Freshman and sophomores and juniors,  i speak on behalf of the entire senior class when i say your movie selections were TERRIBLE!! "American Pie Book Of...Nobody Cares" and "College" had to have been two of your best choices of the whole trip. Movie privileges are very very close to being completely revoked.
The NCAA basketball tournament is starting today, good luck to everyone, hope you picked Utah St to the final four like i did, or if your really good you picked butler, morehead,temple, UK and WVU and pitt. otherwise you'll have lots of red on your bracket. Good luck to all and totally stoked for 4 games in 2 days!

Day 20

Word of the Day: "Supposedly"

I'm sorry to announce that the highly ranked No. 41 Carthage college fell to the "Supposedly" No. 1 ranked Heidelberg University today. Carthage just ran out of pitching after five games, no pitcher having higher than 7 innings pitched, and a center fielder with an attitude and dad to match. I'm very proud of the fight put up by the red men today, they really fought like a No. 41 team on and off the field. To all our hitters, thank you, I enjoy close games, but if we could possibly try and jump out earlier I wouldn't have to waste my high quality fastballs and we could go straight to the closer. Anyways, good win. One more and its a great trip

#13 congrats on your 4th preserved win of the trip.

El padre de #10, mad props brother, you and your posse of the Mafia and thugs woulda beat that mother fuckers ass!!!!

#2 : totally should have gone with "Say it with your CHEST!" or even "wanna go NIGHT NIGHT?!" Also, if that fence wasn't in my way, I would have been out there taking care of business for you.

Just for the record, I have confirmation that 52 mph never ACTUALLY showed up on the gun, however there were several times when nothing registered. I will assume user error.

Quotes of the day:

"They must take a really shitty BP then"(#30 from the outfield commenting on a parents statement that the pitching was just like BP)

Day 17

1hour 53minutes. That was a major burner of a game. Today's been a pretty lame day. Though there is a possible follow up story with a certain photographer we once knew in Wisconsin. Also, i was dry humped three times today....THREE TIMES!!!! I hate blue balls.

Day 16

I would like to begin by congratulating everyone who sang today. Also thank you to the Lowe's for opening your home.

Fru & Rick - great duet way to kick it off

Joe - I like going with no mic. Very ballsey

Ricky- you ability to change octives scares me

Zac- im glad we turned off the fan, and i can't wait for a rain delay

Jabawoki's- umm holy shit!! i know we said take it seriously but DAMN!

Papa Bear and Baby Bear - Baby - i like how you have to put on your drunk face to karaokee. Papa - you should know the words, no excuses.

Z - doing your own song. awesome.

Blystone - she's 20. likes walks on the beach. she's polish so no jokes. i think your starring may have creeped her out though. Derek doesnt have her number but i've heard #17 does.

Day 15

Bluffton: Today was a wonderful day, we had our coach back in the dugout with us and he actually got to stay there the entire time! Neutral umpires not suffering from "Little man" syndrome are awesome. Mr. Right fielder. YOU ATE SHITTTTTT!!!! Thank you for tripping over the bullpen mound and giving up a double. Then the fact that you look at our bullpen and TELL us your embarrassed, when we already obviously knew it, tells us how cool of a person you are. If you're ever in town hit me up and I'll buy you a drink cause that laugh you provided me today is for sure worth a dollar draft.
#31- great bunt! glad we worked on it ALL WINTER
#25- i remember my first hang over.
All freshman- warm up your voices, drink your honey and practice your dance steps cause tomorrow is your day to shine!
Rm 314- 4am wake up calls? seriously? Grow up.

Also, I have gotten out of the friend zone and am no longer stuck at the dry hump stage, therefore, #13 i no longer hate you cause i got my 2 innings!

Day 14

Its been a while since ive been able to sit down and write. With the flood and living at the Hayes/Klaco homeless shelter and then coming to florida and living with people who still think bed time is 9 pm.

A recap of whats happened since The Flood. we practiced. we practice. drew passed out because of a sprain... we stopped practice. we drove. we stopped. we drove 50 in a 70. we dropped off grandpa. we picked up Michael Jackson's best friend. we finally hit the speed limit. we made it to FLORIDA!!! oh and we practiced again.(Props to the brother in the outfield. That was a banging system you got)

Game 1- Buzzsaw nice job, that was the fastest i've seen you move all year. Way to be an athlete
         Final:  14-0

Game 2- The retard took his meds thats for sure. Four hours after the game he still couldn't smile.
         Final: 16-1

Day 13

Two words. The. Flood. Haven't been abel to write for a few days because, well we are homeless. Monday started as a normal day going to practice but by the time outfielders were trying to catch flyballs, Noah was already floating past them on the football field. at this point normal people run to get their cars out of the water, go home throw down sand bags or basically anything except going to eat breakfast. No, Alex is on a new cardio program and walked to practice and has no meal plan so it wasn't him who would rather eat than save his car. Arneal. Dude. I understand that they got you going through some new anger management stuff but brother. YOUR CAR WAS DROWNING. and you went to eat food! How do you do that? whatever Arneal, its cool bro.

Perry street was named an official disaster zone. Ok maybe not by the weather service but when you can row a john boat from your backyard, across the street, to your neighbors backyard, to campus, to viduct, to madisons, to expressions, to riverbend, and back to your own backyard, there should be a state of emergency. 211 perry, we apologize for being irrational by driving our cars through our side lawn and looking like homos by wearing waders but look who's laughing now. Shit you are cause our dumbass landlord decided to send the water company away because we didnt need to turn the water off. Yeah cool one gene. It comforting to come home after being homeless for the night and hear water running when no one is home. thanks for a free months rent!

Shout out to our new best friend, Eric. This dude is AWESOME! scared the shit out of koehl by telling him the ghost is real, shotgunning a beer in 2.5 sec flat, oh and making fun of gene every single time he walked out of the room.

Being homeless really really sucks. This morning, our electricity, gas and water were all turned off, so we had to make eggs on the grill. How ghetto is that. standing outside at the grill, while water is being pumped out of the basement, cooking eggs and making toast. members of our house have also been spotted walking around campus carrying personal belongings in grocery bags and pillow cases. WTF! All we want is a nice bed and a cuddle buddy, anyone willing to oblige let us know.
