In my “church’s” second game I decided to give it one more try while the teams were on the field. I walked over with my camera and offered to send the other team the digital shots if they wanted them. He looked at me like I had three eyes, but it was close so I’m going to say I fouled this one off. I would take one more hack at it. I spotted a lady with a boxer dog who was trying to pull her all over the place. I took a stab at some small talk with, “Man, he’s pretty strong, huh? What’s his name?” She told me he was strong but offered no name. Maybe she hadn’t heard me. “What’s his name? Is he friendly?” She turned her back on me and talked to some of her friends. Ouch. Strike three!

Quick Edit
Sounds like the league I used to play in…'cause it is. The whole thing reminds me of today's church: lots of arguing over the rules (seldom see a game in which someone doesn't strenuously argue a call) and a grudging acknowledgment that we have to share the field with folks who don't have it down as well as we do. I can't find the verse that reminds us to compete and to not trust "creepers" in sheep's clothing. :)Today's antidote for me: listened to 3 lectures from NT Wright. He brings us all into the Big Tent so nicely. But he knows nothing about softball.spk><>
That's good. I'm hoping it was just a tough day.
Wow, that seems really strange to me. I used to play in that league, and then would go as a fan to games after I "retired." Lots of times we would talk to players and fans from the other teams, and we NEVER got those types of reactions (or lack of reaction.)Steve W
