not a bad day of softball

but not a good day either... sadly, the team sucks because there are very poor team players on it and the coaches don't have control over them... last season we forfeited a couple of times and we played with less than ten players most games because people didn't show up... this season is starting off the same away and the coaches just keep asking me to not be pissed off and accept it and they'll fix it next season... we'll fix it next sason because i'll be on another team... today eight people were on time and one guy showd up just as the game started so we played the first game with nine players... the coaches rewarded the late players by letting them play in the second game... i thought about asking to sit out but that would be cutting my own nose off to spite them... on the other hand, the team is not enjoyable for me even though i went 8 for 9 with a double and a triple and we won 10-0 and 11-0 because the other two teams could not hit the ball at all... it was nice that they batted me fourth in the first game and third in the second game so my hits meant more, rather than batting my near last like they usually do... the most annoying thing besides the same guys not showing up on time is they have the worst attitudes and complain...

so what should be a great day with two great wins, two shut outs i should feel great about because i pitched well, hitting i can be very proud of, but above all else, two wins for the few players who do show up and care, instead is a mixed emotion experience once again... when six guys on a team of fourteen don't care to show up on time and then act like they have the right to compain when they do show up, it's not a fun experience... so we are 5-1 on the season because we gave away one win because we are in a league with just a few decent teams and few of the teams in the league can hit my pitching and we might qualify for the world series but we probably won't win a game if we go and that's an expensive week so i am torn... maybe we'll just blow enough games so we don't qualify... whatever... at least i got some exercise...
