So cool that we have the hat!  I like the idea of it being made into a trophy too.
 
We could also change people $5 to have their pictures taken with it at events, and donate that money to charity.  

Talk about burying the lead!

Finally have an opportunity to post. 
 
We had a great time last night. Nick & Laina & Avila, Eric, Eric Notti, Derek & Jessica, Jody & Brown Troy, Oracle, Slegnaac, Bruce and Farrah all showed. I hope I'm not forgetting anybody. We had way too much food and way too much booze. (I can't believe I'm saying that. Damn, I'm getting old.) Slegnaac took down the poker game with brilliant play.
 
I hadn't seen a lot of you for quite some time. It was really great to catch up with everyone and see some new faces as well.
 
Everyone was very generous. Stradling hooked up the In N Out, which was a huge hit. Notti brought a box of PercySquint Playing cards, which we'll all treasure. Bruce left behind a Saloon's worth of booze. Everyone was so gracious. Thank you all for coming out.
 
Also, due to the generosity of those who attended we raised $700.00 for Mike's grandkids! 
 
Lastly, our community was given the honor of owning Mike's calling card - his chinaman hat. As a group we all loved the idea of having the hat encased in glass and making it the official annual softball tournament trophy, with the winning captain owning it for the year. 

That game was a statement game!

There really wasn't a whole lot of picture taking going on, but I did get this one:  Thanks Strading!
 

10-1!

10-1!

Public schools. Yay

that would still leave Bama, FSU, TCU and Ohio St.
Plus, the selection committee has already said that if Baylor and TCU end up tied in the standings, they will consider both teams conference champions.
The Big 12 conference motto?
One True Champion

Either way, someone on the board is getting 'hate' drunk!

I thought this thread would be about Laina.   What a disappointment. 

We just want your money.

Why aren't Al Sharpton and Jesse Jackson talking about this?

I have voted in every election since I was 18.  
 
I don't say that to brag.  I'm just pointing out that I'm better than all of you.

Only because you are older. It's only been 23 years of voting since I was 18.

Well, since I am eons older than you, I must be the best voter here.  
 
Yes, every one.
