Horns stumble without star players


The Summer GM looked down at the table when told of his teams dismal start to the 2008 Season.

The Elkhorns opened up with a loss in the first game being "mercied" by Soulman's Misfits and then returned to form by "kicking" Field of Nightmares.

"Basically the Misfits are FAQ for gawd sakes!" indicated Craig, "we dominated them last year!"

Predictions of winning 85% of their games this year are not over yet, however the Herd needs to get their big guns back int he line up soon! Hugh and the Summer GM both were absent on Monday night and it's clear the squad is a .500 team without them.

"I was in the cock pit of the plane telling the pilot to step on it" indicated Hugh. "He kept pushing back and ranting about regulations crap!" Hugh knew the team was in jeopardy unless he got there.

"I blew a $40 Proline!" sobbed Pete. He was not the only better that night that chose the Elks.

Others were speculated to have had their money on the Elkhorns as well indicating the allegations are false and they have never placed money on any sporting event, let alone an event as significant as the Elkhorns season opener.



The Team is looking forward to getting all the players in the line up soon with the likes of Dave and Nicola also suiting up in the near future.

On the injury front, Jeff was sporting a colorful mosaic on his calf and the team is hopeful for a healthy return.

Casual Observer (Ron) saw the moths fly out of his wallet as he made good on his proclamation to buy a drink for anyone who homers in their first at bat. Rob rounded the bases 3X! Casual may have to dip into his signing bonus once again as there will be more first time batters stepping up over the next few games.

The next showdown is on Wednesday night against the Classics. After having their antlers broken by the Classics in the Season Tourney last year, look for the Horns to come out fast!

Anyone wanna bet?
