This Ain't No Softball

"Is that Texas enough for you, ol' man?" snickered 'Special T' Travis Hubbard at McNeil Park in Round Rock at the conclusion of his one set shoot out with the Tennis Troubadour. 'Special T' had gotten his game fully together after dropping the opening three games to TT and resorted to some smash-mouth tennis, Longhorn style. The 'immobile minotaur' was facing an 80mph serve that painted the T and dotted the sidelines with increasing frequency in his (3-6) loss to this 'raging bull' out of Texas State. 'Never you mind' quibbled the 'bloated behemoth' to Cackling Chris Cockrum, 'Jesse Crossan is someone I know I can whip. He's from the northeast too." But we'll never know. The lights conveniently went out at the town park with TennisTitan up a break (2-0) and about to take the third game from the brash 'Broad Street Bully' from Newark, Del. Russ 'Hoya Saxa' Briscoe attempted to console his old man walking to the softball field with some soothing words. "Rest easy dad. Briscoe honor is fully maintained. I barbecued that 'BSB' in two straight (6-3, 6-2)." At the conclusion of the Dell team's 13-1 loss on the diamond, Grant 'The Enforcer' Brashear cracked, "Pigeon feet may help Jesse to take small steps on the tennis court, but all I saw was a lot of bird droppings around second base tonight." Cackling Chris commented "At least the beer is as cold as the team's sales performance this quarter." 'The Enforcer' didn't look none too happy.
