Go Titans? That's it, you're losing karma. You mean ... like you lost in the 1st round of the Regionals TWO YEARS in a row now? !!!

You are what you is. I think my original assessment held up.

Well, as we approach the Christmas season, I, among many, eagerly anticipate the Annual GW Christmas story. Any hopes?

Mr. Surfishin, the GW is busy as usual during this Holiday Season and is out and about looking for Yuletide stories that may be taking place as we speak. I would say that we are hopeful that the Holiday Spirit will result in another heart warming experience for me to share with the softball world. Defender of the Twelve Days of Christmas

It’s that time of year again folks for the 3rd Annual HBO Softball Christmas Extravaganza. Hosting this 2013 version will be the University of Maryland’s own, Society of High Intensity Thespians (S.H.I.T.). Coach Watten, the head Thespian, will be aided by the Black Ice Softball Club and Brown Nose Choir. Heavy has volunteered to be the resident bell ringing Santa Clause and all the members of the Black Ice Team can be seen stuffing the Black Kettle with cash for the Watten Hummer and Cell Phone charity. Could there be any more worthy of a cause than this one? Looking over in the corner I can see OpticY nestled under the mistletoe but I can see as of yet she has not found any takers. The atmosphere is not quite as jovial as in prior years down at College Park. The choir is singing the Maryland recruiting hymn, “Oh Come All Ye Faithful”. Can there be that much faith in the world? I’ll bet the hope is that this resounding song can attract more C Conference All Stars to the Robert E. Taylor Stadium. The new Maryland pitching coach can be heard humming “Oh Holy Kendra Knight, the stars are brightly shining”. She is hoping that her leaving was just a mid winter’s dream. The entire Maryland team is huddled around the TV set watching Miracle on 34th Street hoping that Kris Kringle can get them a win in the ACC this year.
As usual there is the live Nativity Scene on display. Coach 501, a long time S.H.I.T. favorite is playing Joseph, and Kelly Kretschman, who is back for a visit, is playing Mary. She is heard saying to Angel Gabriel, played by Smartwater, “how can this be since I know not man?” The animals are around the manger. Playing the Jackass this year is none other than Mr. Green. He is perfect for the role, but we are not sure how long he will stay if a better offer comes along. He is volunteering this year in case that thing in Missouri doesn’t quite work out as planned. The job of the Shepherd is being handled by Surfishin, who as we know has the motto, “I have never met a sheep that I didn’t like.” King Herod is being played by the irascible Racsan. If I were you I’d want to go hide my first born right now. DHF plays Caspar, one of the Magi who came from afar, more specifically UVA. He is always there to help Coach Watten.
Our cameras now shift over to Bachman where there is another Festive Party going on. The host of this debacle is the long term coach at UMBC, Joe French. Joe is checking under the tree, behind the dugouts, over at the prison and anywhere there might be a player and singing, “My pitchers got run over by a Reindeer, coming home from Pasadena this Christmas Eve”. Coach Costello is wondering why she is even there. This isn’t California. She much prefers the Mele Kalikimaka Hawaiian Christmas song. She knows that only warm weather girls can help her finish in 4th place year after year. PFI, that poor misfit, is also at the party. He just can’t stop singing Feliz Navidad. He is hoping that one day he gets a good player who understands these words and is here legally. NewB is serving drinks hoping to pick up a rumor or two as well as singing “Auld Lang Syne” because his softball days are now officially over. The Real Truf is the special guest and the representative of Baltimore County High School Softball. He is known this time of year mostly as the One Man “Nutcracker”, or to some of us as the One and Only “Nutcase”. There is a feeling of peace and joy in the air as these softball aficionados share their stories of Christmases and softball seasons past and look forward to the next season with its promise of a new beginning. So as you go to sleep on Christmas Eve with visions of bent arms, screwballs, relics, MrMan, Truf Hurtz, NSA, ASA, USSSA, JVMom, John Meil, Rec Ball, BDA, DropBall, Not a Pitching Coach, Juan Epstein, georgejetson and many other fun things, remember that this is the time of the year for giving and being thankful that we have this great game to enjoy. Happy Holidays!

Happy Holiday's, I'd like to thank everyone that sent me suggestions on teams and others things. Big help to me coming from out of the area.
I do have a question for GW? What are your top 5 6 7 travel programs on the east coast from Nj to Fla. Focusing on teams that only get together when they play on the weekends. Once you make the team after a tryout. Thank you.
