Coin Flip

What's on your mind?

by wadeintothem » Sun Mar 15, 2009 7:21 pm

The "you call it, no you call it, no I dont want to call it" "oh I lose everytime" "let her call it" "who came farther" is a waste of time and I feel like assaulting my partner when they do it.

Youre heads - youre tails - flip the damn coin.

End of story.

The 9 1/2 min pregame song and dance including some lame bs grab ass followed promptly by an umpire led rules clinic followed by a sportsmanship speech, followed by a uniform critiquing and expectation list and a take off your ear rings and a this and a that.. then the coup de grace - a game of flip the coin charades ABSOLUTELY drives me nuts.

I do not do that, the goal is getting the game underway - so get er done.

We have had a lady blue every now and then who has a girl from each team roll a ball towards the pitching rubber (closest wins), which always has the coaches scrambling for their best bowler. That is after the 9 1/2 minute song and dance. Good times.

Did it knock them out of CIF playoffs?....or a league game? No.....then it doesn't mean crap....so they play for 3rd place in what amounts to a friendly. big deal.

I heard it was a big deal to the girls they were all mad. Any good competitive athlete would not be happy. Sorry girls you worked your a$$ off won every game in a tourney and you are now playing for third, give me a break

You tell the girls that they shouldn't have allowed 4 runs to put themselves in this situation in the first place...

.....and all the girls have forgotten about it by Monday. The coach tells the AD not to schedule that tourney ever again and life goes on.

Ya by Monday they probably did forget about it but at the time they were fired up when they found out they didn't get to play for the title.

Did they win the 3rd place game?

Who won the championship?
