No better way to start off the [ J ] weekend, then a good game of Wiffle. It is [ N ] to observe such traditions before embarking on six hours of shopping for [ V ]. And we had a fair number of wifflers gather at [ A ] field this morning to honor Oakwood’s pastime.
The [ G ] batted first and built a lead [ K ]. They took to the pitching of [ C ] in a big way - particularly the off-speed deliveries which were [ L ] all over the asphalt. Generating all of the visitors’ RBI was [ E ], who delivered knocks of the extra-base variety with the bases loaded more than once.
The home team, nicknamed the [ H ], had a huge [ M ] to climb to make this a game. The task seemed too great for them, until [ D ] drove up to deliver [ I ] cups of [ O ]. This diversion really woke the home-boys’ spirits and their bats.
The comeback began innocently enough, as [ F ] sent a [ Q ] single the opposite way with one out. But from that point on [ B ] failed to retire the next ten batters. The [ H ] lineup hummed like a [ P ]. When the onslaught was finally over, it seemed it was [ R ] already, and the right arm of [ B ] must have looked like a [ S ] [ T ].
It was the [ U ] comeback in wiffle history!!
For those of you who missed it this long weekend includes another chance to play. Come on out at 9:00 AM on Monday morning for bonus holiday wiffle!!

OK. I tried. Not sure if this is quite what Stats expected.
ReplyDeleteNo better way to start off the Arbor Day weekend, than a good game of Wiffle. It is ridiculous to observe such traditions before embarking on six hours of shopping for Twinkies. And we had a fair number of wifflers gather at Purim field this morning to honor Oakwood’s pastime.
The carrots batted first and built a lead ruthlessly. They took to the pitching of Xerxes in a big way - particularly the off-speed deliveries which were farted all over the asphalt. Generating all of the visitors’ RBI was Louis Armstrong, who delivered knocks of the extra-base variety with the bases loaded more than once.
The home team, nicknamed the telephones, had a huge cheese to climb to make this a game. The task seemed too great for them, until Sarah Palin drove up to deliver tall cups of Pepsi. This diversion really woke the home-boys’ spirits and their bats.
The comeback began innocently enough, as Lionel Messi sent a pathetic single the opposite way with one out. But from that point on Calvin Coolidge failed to retire the next ten batters. The telephones lineup hummed like a Rice cooker. When the onslaught was finally over, it seemed it was July already, and the right arm of Calvin Coolidge must have looked like a sublime manatee.
It was the inanest comeback in wiffle history!!

Kurt, well done. That was exactly how ya do the Mad Libs.
ReplyDeleteCommish - I thought this was the perfect post for a game I didn't witness. Wrote it way in advance and set it to automatically post after the game was over.
Tho Kurt, I don't follow how you get "Purim" from "Someone you read about in the Oakwood Register" but it is still funny.
ReplyDeleteTall Pepsi's from Sarah Palin. LOL.
ReplyDeleteShe is so Coco-Cola.
Re: Purim. 2 things:
ReplyDeletea) if i took too long, people would be asking if i had an abundance of extra time
b) as robyn is happy to point out, sometimes i don't pay attention.
