GMYLM Practice (H-Bomb)

The GMYLM kickball gang met up for our 2nd practice game today, which was my first chance to meet a bunch of my teammates. There were 10 of us there plus 4 dogs, the Lott included. Holly hosted pre and post game hydration and Chris updated us on the tube sock & sweat band order. We should be fully outfitted in time for the first game and quite impressive to boot!

There were some strong plays, some dropped balls, a number of heroic runs for home base, a slide for first, and even a couple grand slams as I recall. [GMYLM teammates: If you're looking for a more sports-writerly accounting of the game, you're welcome to guest write the game summaries!]


The humidity and some sore muscles humbled even the strongest players, but it's nothing a cold beer and an ice pack can't cure.



Thanks to Chris' propensity for punting the ball into the trees we have an MVP or rather MVK crown. James took the honor this game and wore it proudly, if only for a moment!


GMYLM is destined for greatness, to be sure!
