Hello all, sorry for my tardiness in posting to this incredibly awesome site...I hope this thing has spell check, cause I ain't so good at the spelling. I'm more of an idea guy! Anywho, Loserville is making some moves and I like it. We are going to get things going in the right direction, we have been a bit like "the puppy who lost his way" and now Loserville will finally make its mark on the world, however, only the future can tell what sort of mark, or stain that will be.
Today I write to you with a very sore body. I, along with some other fine gentlemen, participated in a flag football tournament this past Saturday. Trying to recapture the thrill and excitement of my glory days! While there was no band playing "Smoke on the water" nor a cowbell being played feverishly, nor an announcer to introduce me to the crowd of 7 ( it was 18 degrees outside!) I still approached this tourney with child-like enthusiasm. Sure it was cold, but not in my head, where I was running precise routes, making tackles like Bob Sanders and catching passes like T.O. We, as a team of elders in this youglings tournament, made it to the semi-finals before injuries, time, age and weather took its toll. We lost 3 players and still only loss by two scores. This leads me to only one conclusion..."We Still Got It Baby!!" Someone Cue Bruce Springsteen's Glory Days please.
Seriously though the glory days are the glory days for a reason. They bring friends together years down the road, they provide phenomenal memories and stories to tell for all involved. Families, Friends and others all should do a little remembering around the holidays about the glory days. Ask a friend about the time he scored the game winning td in high school, or the time she spiked the volleyball for the win in college intramurals or even the time when you passed out in the bushes at a party or walked home in the snow for 3 miles and have no memory of it! The glory days help make us who we are and are the foundation of who we will someday be. So on that note, I will leave you to your favorite recollection of the Glory Days. More to come, stay tuned...next blog's topic "Children whose parents are dead, but still beat them."

ahhhhhh, the glory days - when a dodge charger, good round of putt putt, a warm kid catcher and the main event added up to one hell of a good night.
