VETERANS COMMITTEE MAKES DECISION


Well as you can see by the headlines in the Goulder Press is that the veterans committee has made a decision at this time not to allow Mark into the HOF at this time. It has also decided that at this time that there will be no vote either to allow any other members, the veterans committee will address this issue at again a later date which means there is still only one member of the Wiffle Ball Hall of Fame at this time. We are getting some much needed rain here in CH this morning and it looks like we will be getting some rains showers on and off all day. The first tropical system of the year is heading towards Florida this morning, Tropical Storm Alberto looks like it will dump some very heavy rain on Florida's west coast later today into tuesday. Keith has gone back to the garden state for the week and won't be back until friday, he is at Fort Dix this week. It looks like After Hours has found everybody tuxedo measurements that have been fitted, there were 2 individuals as of saturday morning who have not been fitted. Game 4 of the Stanley Cup finals is tonight in Edmonton with Carolina leading the series 2-1. Denny Hamlin of Chersterfield won yesterdays Nextel Cup race at Pocono for his 1st win of the season, and with the win he has moved to 9th in the point standings. Also today the USA soccer team will be in action in the World Cup. MICKEY

If we do what is necessary, all the odds are in our favour.

The verteran's committee did the right thing by standing by the earlier decision (be it right or wrong - i'm and not taking a stand on the decision for obvious reasons). Lobbying organizations have downgraded the integrity of the this country. I am glad there are still people who will stand by there decision and not yield to pressure.

The committee would like to commend Mickey whose promising wiffle ball career was cut short during the prime of his young career when white Sox management refused to field a team thus causing the league to fold .Many future fans have been denied the opportunity to enjoy willle ball at the highest level.A personal note.... I am still apalled that White Sox management and team had no backboned. A disgrace that will live in infamity.
