Bulldog Down
Photo Caption: 80s Country Singer Mickey Gillis on a sub shop wall in Kansas City
Maya got worked by a softball that hit her in the collarneckbone on an errant throw as part of a double play attempt. This was the scariest thing I had ever seen in my five years as player/coach. With the grace of Jeebus she is just now regaining her ability to walk and speak without a lisp. My greatest regret as Coach is that I didn't have whiskey in the first aid kit to kill the pain.
On a positive note, ringers Jill and Amy came in to help continue the hotness . . . Our our winning streak. We made the win over 1st place Capella University (13-6) feel easy thanks to smart fielding and timely hitting. This year we have guaranteed a winning record plus third place in the league. This may not sound like a lot but it is considering that we didn't even have a white board (or Mel Jensen's glove) five years ago.
Side Note
Meg is back with hits that landed her on second and third bases the past few games.
Sad Note
Tomorrow is the last game of the season.
Super Note
Pinata party at Coach's this Saturday.
Saucy Note
The Punchy Awards back at Buca this year? I say yes. You say?

God Rocks...this Thursday
From Sexiest Man (Pete):
Hello there. I did a movie last summer called God Rocks and it will be screening at the Heights theatre this Thursday. It's a classic coming of age story about a Christian battle of the bands. A mockumentary if you will. Lucky for you I play the director of the film so you don't have to spend an hour and a half looking at my face, just listening to my voice as I conduct the band interviews. No worries if you can't make it, but if you got nothing going on this Thursday come on up to The Heights. Here's the info:

Axel F in E Minor
Do you think we are the only one's that enjoy Tyler's music? Check out Capella's #21 in the background of this video.
We beat the Hot Sakes 19-3 last night. Josh (new guy) hit a home run over the left field fence in his debut Bulldog at bat. It must be the double batting gloves. Jeff must feel threatened at the AlphaMale. He'll have to get over it. Welcome Josh.
Two More Notes
Liz and I decided to make a documentary about the Bulldog and everyone we destroy. FYI - when you paid me for this season it included a full release for me to use your likeness in any way I see fit.
We play Capella the second to last game of the year at 9. We challenged them to an old fashioned pre-game drink-off. They accepted, so let's start to train and bring the pain.

2008 Season - Do You Believe in Miracles?
The Bulldog added another impressive victory to their credit with a 13-7 win over that one team we played in the season opener. It started out weak - we gave up four runs in the first. Fortunately the Bulldog was able to rely on the powerful bat of Maya Azteca. Her spark kept the innings going and setup Jeff's three run homer over the left field fence. This tater made Jeff the all-time Bulldog homer run leader. His two lifetime ding dongs drops the previous home run champ, Beach into last (and second) place.Tyler made a strong case for Male MVP with stirring renditions of the Night Court Theme, Super Mario Brothers Theme, and a teasingly satisfying versions of The Final Countdown. Tyler's repertoire seems to grow exponentially every week and is the only reason why Jeff hasn't been ejected from every single game this year. Gordy, the bus driving ump, has taken a shine to Tyler and requested that he learn China Grove by the Doobie Brothers because "it's a kickass song."
I can't wait for next week.

Faces of the Game: Coach
Coach with Polish Weiners.
We came back from a big deficit and won by at least four. They had a 7 run first inning. One big inning really helped us. Leviticus had a homer as did someone else. My recollection could be better without Ojo Malo (Evil Eye) cerveza. The Cappella University ladies are still hots for Karl.
Coach helped out Tyler by filling in with a unique DJ set that included the Mexican Hat Dance and BBD - Poison among others.

United States of Wisconsin
Sconny is a whole different world. That's probably why I love it so. Take a close look at the "heathy" food in this Wisconsin manufacturing plant cafeteria. Items include local favorites such as buffalo wings and cheese curds. This and New Glarus Brewing Company makes me want to move back.

Faces of the Game
Grown up (semi) Cam and a feral child.
E League? We ain't in no E League. That's what we learned last night against the Boo Berry Bombers. They have to be the best hitting team the Bulldog or Donkey Punch has ever faced. Scouting reports indicate that they regularly throw up seven runs in an inning with impunity. The Bulldog held them to 7 runs last night - for the entire game. Unfortunately we only put out 5. Much love to the outfield for good job. A special thanks also goes to Levi and everyone that showed.

Bulldog Bangs Gong, Hard
The Wednesday evening matchup between the Bulldog and the Gong Hitters had everything it needed to become a historical event. It was to be a matchup for the ages - keyboard against gong, us versus hippies, beer versus special Gong Hitter medicine. Only one thing didn't work out right - they struggled with walks and we killed most everything that came across the plate. The Bulldog barked 19 times when the gong only recieved 4 hits in the blowout.
Jeff is the new Beach, becoming only the second Bulldog to homer over the left field fence. His advice, "hit the ball on the Mizuno part [sweet spot of the bat]." Giving him a switch buddy was also a contributing factor.
Todd also crushed a homer to right rounding out his regular exemplary left field play. Jim continues to impress along with Emily. Leviticus (the pitcher) showed off for his family and stepped out of Ryan's shadow by being awesome. Liz was best dressed.
My Kobe Beef Truffle Burger at the Bulldog NE was also awesome.
Karl are Ryan are Coewaach next week. Mind them well and offer to help with the whiteboard.
