Captain's Blog- Stardate April 18, 2010

Welcome to the Captain's blog! I was actually debating with myself whether or not to do a blog and depending on how busy I get, it may not receive the attention it deserves. If you have anything (i.e. photos, stories, etc.) you might like to add to the website or the blog, I'm more than willing to put them in.

It's been more than seven months since The Wild won the championship. For those new or returning players to the league, The Wild won the triple crown last season, they won the championship, the regular season and the keg party... Lucky bastards!! We are fortunate to have on our team this upcoming season, one of the 2009 Wild players, Jens Lepa.

Speaking of championships, I was fortunate to win in 2008 with the Lucky Stiffs. Winning feels good!

The Hurtin' Units captain's blog will be a site where teammates can view a brief game summary, game score and game highlights as I've viewed them. I will only write about the positive events of each game or if something is humorous and needs to be mentioned it may be thrown in.

This is not the first time I have blogged a team in the Tottenham Oldtimers league. In 2007 I played for the Rusty Rebels and blogged every game, including playoffs and tournaments. If you would like to view the Rebels blog go to http://www.rustyrebels.blogspot.com/.

I'm looking forward to the start of the season. This will be my fifth season in the league, I've played on some good teams and some mediocre squads, but these teams are in the past the focus is on the Units...

This is Mike and my first year being captains. One of the things I'm most looking forward to this season is playing with Mike again. I played with Mike my first two seasons and we are both excited about captaining this season. Mike had an off season at bat last season, finding the gloves of opposing teams about .600 percent of the time, if you know what I mean. He has something to prove to himself this season, he has the Eye of the Tiger again and is hitting the snot out of the ball already this season. I only mention his G.O.A (getting out average) because I know how much he hates the statistics... The team we drafted looks like it will make our first season as captains fun and successful.

I really like the team that we drafted on Saturday April 10, 2010, I don't think we could have asked for any better, except maybe for this Chris Ross guy (just kidding).

I'm in the process of organizing a practice and I'm looking forward to the start of the season...

Cheers, Jimmer.
