Has Anyone Seen Our Future?

As you may have heard, we had to postpone (then cancel) the Winter '09 season. We had no choice in the matter, as there is no available field large enough to accommodate the game of softball. (Curse the people who decided what the dimensions of a soccer field should be.) The good news is, we should have plenty of new adults joining ASL in the coming years, because there is some seriously overwhelming demand to play baseball in Jordan. This is why the Little League field is not available. There are literally hundreds of kids playing baseball there on Fridays this winter. Maybe even thousands. Or, at least a dozen kids. OK, maybe seven. Anyway, it's Little League's field, so like the Bad News Bears in the Astrodome...Let them play. Here's what we hope to do over the next few weeks: 1. Register as an independent organization. 2. Find some land. 3. Make a softball field. 4. Play ball. If anyone wants to enlist for the purpose of helping out in Steps 1-3 above, please email me using the contact info at the top of the sidebar. Don't even bother calling. That number is just for ASL (not my private number), so I will not pick up during the offseason. Email, please. In the meantime, should we keep the Slogs going or let 'em hibernate? I'm thinking of posting the entire championship game from Summer '07 via YouTube. You know, Nomads-Traitors. Great game. Epic, even. And maybe we can settle, once and for all, if Massarweh is qualified to play shortstop. (Maybe that dig will get him on the toilet and calling.) Stay warm, Sloggers.
