Well, stupid Blogger screwed my rant over last night. Basically, we were robbed of a potential win in softball when the ump made a completely incorrect call on a play at the plate that would have put us within two with two outs and myself and our other solid hitter coming up with two outs and a man on third. Our runner performed a perfect hook slide at home and his foot slid over the plate, but the ump had a bad position and called him out. We went nuts...we could have had at least six of us tossed (leading to two-game suspensions) even though the game was officially over. It was nuts, but warranted...he had blown 2-3 calls (depending who you ask) already. It's too bad too, because he seemed like a nice enough guy, he just didn't get good position. So we lost, 8-5 in a game that we could have won against a very fundamentally sound team of Japanese or Korean players...they yelled in their native tongue the entire game. It was interesting, to say the least.

Tonight, freakin' beach volleyball in 60-degree, wind-off-the-lake weather. Damn. It better warm up real fast.
