When I was in College (late 70's - early 80's)..............seems like centuries ago.............my roomies/buddies and I put together a pretty good softball team.............
We won 2nd place in all school Intramurals in 1979 (Which included UT (University of Texas for the uninformed) Law School........who had teams together for more than 2-3 seasons...............
My Junior year...........UT decided to re-do all of the Intramural outdoor fields............so Spring Soccer, softball and flag football were off for that Spring........
We decided to play in the local City League (which was an ASA league)............our head honcho signed us up as a class "B" Mens team...........(I don't even know if there was a HR limit back then)
Boy.........did we ever learn our lesson..............we got our asses kicked...............
In that 20 (something) game season...........I think we won 3 or 4 games..................
The behemoths we faces cranked HR after HR.........where we maybe put 1-2 out per game.........and had always relied on solid defense...................
We were a great College intramural team............defense.......speed......very good outfield............great infield at the corners.........
But..........we got our butts handed to us in our hats playing serious softball...................
I had fun...........but we hated losing.............
If anyone is interested..........I can tell you the prostitute story on the way to the softball field story.........................grin
