Softball and Ring Around the Rosie

by Beav on June 21, 2007

Today was a very full day (8:30am – 10pm), but one hour in the middle was dedicated to the Campus Crusade CSU intramural softball league which started. In 2001 when we were out here taking classes, I was fortunate enough to be on the championship team with other Pacific Southwesters. This year there are 3 returnees – Brad Fulton, Jason Sorge, and Myself – from that team and we’ve been teamed up with a couple others from the PSW as well as a bunch of dudes from the Mid-South – places like South Carolina. Good team, at least by the looks of it. We won today 32-2 I think because our team really can swing the bats. Joe Priola surprised us all with his all around game and skills.

But my favorite moment was when Morgan came with Christine to watch and came over to me and told me, “Dada, you run fast!” Of course I was encouraged even if it wasn’t really true. Then while the game was still in progress she came to me while I was waiting and asked, “Dada, can we play ring around the rosie?” It was so tender. We played a little bit, but I wasn’t able to play ring around the rosie in the middle of the other 12 guys on my team. Morgan’s awesome.

    It is sad that you chose being a man over dancing with you daughter…you will never have that moment again. Next time I see you I expect you to play ring around the rosie with me.

    Last night we played softball too. We were like 7-7, the team stinks. We won 4 of those by forfeit. We were playing a team that was 14-0. Game one they killed up 15-8, but we handed it to them in game 2. It was nice knowing that we beat the champs…later BV.
