Softball has a dark side. I have fallen to it and the conflict, but deep down I know the good is stronger. Hell many people say Softball is dead and bad.But on Saturday October 17th the the"B/C It's "More Than Just a Game" Cancer Charity Tournament"proved "There is still good in the Softball. We sometimes forget it, but there is still good"
We raised $5,520 (waiting on $300 from Con Ed Company match)
But the good did not stop there, Jason Yadoff raised
an additional $1,186 on his own personal page. That's a total of $6,706. There is Still Good Inside of Softball
In The Star Wars Movies the Origin of Darth Vadar was told and so it is only fitting that the original of the Man who inspired this event be revealed
I couldn't do this event without Dio,

There is still good in softball. May The Force Be With You (so corny yet cool).
The hardest part about fundraising isn't raising money... it's patiently answering every questions. You see when you run a Tourney you might as well have a
button on your chest. My approach is to use the Forest Gump Philosophy:
9. Location questions - Where is it? Is Inwood different from Dyckman? is that the Bronx? Answer: 207th Street Seaman Avenue NY NY 10032 "Yes Drill Sergeant"
4. How do I donate? Answer: use personal fundraising page at Ricardo Ronda Cancer Research Institute Fundraising Page Anyone amount is good - $10, $100, $1,000. Today I received 1K ... Beautiful,, but anything you can give is deeply appreciated and it all adds up. You can post your amount or keep it private. It's all good
"Yes Drill Sergeant" Honestly ask me anything you want as long as you can donate your time, heart, energy to this event I will patiently answer anything you ask.
One fewer Sunday to play in because Labor Day was late this year
Two frustrating Rain outs
The league hasn't quite been buried under a landslide, but it's not exactly at the top of the fall softball mountain anymore. After all we are all getting older, but the SB love remains.
Inwood has had many great teams - West, Highlanders, Westlanders, Phillies, Knockout, Bizcocheros but it has never had an undefeated team.. At 5-0 HK's is off to a fast start.. Let explore the Secret of HK's success.
Top Ten Reasons HK is undefeated in Inwood 10. Rick makes the Schedule
9. They played three teams who all had 1-4 records. Two Rained out weekends have skewed the standings 8. Playing all early games gives them access to fresh pastelitos and pastels.Which improves performance and energy.
7. LEADERSHIP - Mr. Bill – The Apprentice
6. They haven’t played Chelsea, Sandlot, Bizcocheros, etc yet
You don't have to play in the tournament to be an impact player. Anyone can contribute, $10, $20, $25,,, whatever you can afford here. No judgements. You can keep your donate amount private.
