I swear that is what my UIC told me based upon his call to the national U-trip office.

That's just plain horsepoopery!

So how does the defense ever turn a double play?

I haven't decided if I should call it from the dugout or the outfield. Apparently, both have really great views!

Screw green, it ain't easy being blue!

I won't be coming here that much anymore. I might check in now and again.
