FUN BUNCH WIN NINTH STRAIGHT GAME
Team hangs on to defeat NGC 16-9 and remain undefeated
JERUSALEM – With steve “field marshal” saunders on a rare leave of absence, the well-being of the team was entrusted to his lieutenant clark “pound ‘em back” lawlor “. Look “pound ‘em back” our season long winning streak is on the line and I don’t want it to end here. Have them execute my game plan and this should be a straightforward victory. And whatever you do, don’t show up loaded”, “field marshal” carefully explained to “pound ‘em back”, before he left town. “Pound ‘em back”, listened intently, but his eyes started to glaze over quickly, however he nodded his head all the same not wanting to show his confusion. After “field marshal” left, he tried his darndest to remember his marching orders. Something to do with getting loaded? Yeah that was it, he thought, quite proud of his ability to remember. Fun bunch were playing a new opponent – NGC enterprises – so no scouting report was available. It turns out many of the players were from bass line station as they entered a second team into the league. It was a close affair, but two homers from Andrew “gazelle” Campbell (no longer AWOL) and one from scott “boom boom” saunders helped pad the lead. Not wanting to be left out of the fun, “pound ‘em back” (sufficiently loaded as requested) hit a fourth home run for an out and was dismayed to find his teammates unimpressed with his antics. Despite his tomfoolery, the funbunch held fast and closed out NGC with yet another victory.
