Where's Summer?


And he was not talking about the yearly event that starts every June 21st!  Hugh was asking about the whereabouts of the Summer GM.

"We need him back, today was very different.  Not that Ron did a bad job, not at all, it was just different!" remarked Hugh.  "I actually went over to the side, smacked myself in the face a few times, yelled at myself, and that got me going!".  "It was just too casual out there.  Clearly he never read Built to Win authored by Summer."

"Look at me, I have aged because of this, tattoo sagged, the whole bit!" screamed a disgusted Hugh.


It also appeard that Casual lost his starting pitching job to Sharon.  "I think The Summer GM did this year like he has in the past years, he just keeps finding raw talent to fill gaps" said Casual.  This year I am moving off the mound more than in the past" murmured Casual.  "Not sure why, I have a Unique style that did well in the past!"

"He did a great job with Tannis and Les as well; I don't know where the hell he finds them, but it is beautiful" envied the Elkhorn GM.  "He is big on Nadine as well, so we should be good to go!". 

The Herd started out the 2009 season with 2 victories at Buhler Park.  The Herd managed the victories without Summer (Big Bambino), Dave (Ball Gobbler), Nicole and Nadine.  Players of the game were Maura and Casual.  Guess it was slim pickens.......

Stay tuned for more game information as the schedule gets established.

Summer GM, where are you" cried Tiny Glove...."I guess I will just settle in and read a best seller Built to Win".  "I miss you"

The Summer Assistant (the Summer Ass) did a great job today. Well organized to go along with two victories, how can you argue that.

Yet it was a little strange to have no yelling, no players questioning their position, no arguments with umpires or the opposition... etc.

Good start to the season nonetheless.

Pretty tough to mess up the well oiled machine that the Summer GM has built (to win).

Summer GM had it all laid out on the table from what I saw.

And, why would theh Summer Ass actually be so laise-faire as to ask "is everybody Ok with their positions"?

Not sure that is the direction the organization needs...

Thank goodness the Summer GM's influence was still there regardless of the damage done.

Of course everyone is gonna say they are OK with their positions...history has shown that if you are not, then "you are not"!

Roy thinks everything went all right last nite and the team has added significant depths to its line up with the new players.

This is no fakken clown show. Standards? What standards, there are no fakken standards.

Results, not excuses!

Like everyone in Winnipeg, Hugh missed Summer! It goes without saying that Hugh missed the season, but mostly he missed his mentor and guide Summer GM. No slagging on Summer Ass' prowess as a fill in GM, but let's face it he's just too damn casual about things. Hugh loves him for that and can always count on Casual's "cool hand Luke" way with altercations or when Hugh is getting heated in the dug out. In the long run, not even Hugh could complain about opening day, but he thinks he would have turned those two triples into in the park home runs, had the Summer GM been at opening day instead of at another birthday party!
