FREEDOM & VICTORY .. without facepaint

BRAVEHEART is a classic film. If this speech/scene
doesn't make you want to go to war to fight for what is right then nothing will. Sometimes you just have to go through Pain http://softballinsider.blogspot.com/2010/09/call-me-ishmael.html and Hell
Victory
and when you finally do get there, it is so sweet and memorable. Today Bravery won the Central Park Performing Arts league
and while we didn't wear any face paint we went through on and off the field pain, hell, and wars to bring the family home a championship. Great Unselfish group

On a personal note I would like to thank commissioner Jack Mulcahay for his class, support, and professionalism in one of our darkest moments. He's a true Mensch.

    The Mionetto Prosecco was a surprising selection. Aromatic, floral, with nutty and pear-like flavors. Not much finish or weight. More of an aperitif (first round)than a championship sparkling.
