CS -- I just screwed up (my first mistake as moderator). I noticed that my topic on this subject was a duplicate so I tried to delete it. Unfortunately, the topic that you had created was deleted by mistake. I didn't even know I could do it. So.....the previous topic on players of the week seems to be gone, unless Julie can restore it.

I apologize to those of you that contributed to the earlier topic and to the families of previous winners.

Maybe I'm too old for this job.

Aaron Gilbreath The stats: Gilbreath is 5-1 this season with 59 strikeouts and a 1.49 ERA.

Did you know? Gilbreath has signed to play at Dallas Baptist. ...His father, Ron, was a right-handed pitcher in the Montreal Expos organization. ...Gilbreath is obsessed with ping pong. "I think I've been beaten twice in my whole life."...Must-see TV for Gilbreath: Baseball Tonight. Favorite Flick: The Dark Knight. ...He is interested in a career in sports journalism.

ho hum... another double digit srikeout performance by AG... lmao...

Great job AG... Glad it wasn't us you were pitching against.
That is what you get for listening to Tater Salad.

He is doing well, although a little frustrated with how the team is playing. Not seeing many belt-high fastballs these days either, but that is his problem... Big Grin

Looks like Mav-son is having a monster season, as are the Tigers. Keep it going and have one of your pitchers plunk Arnsberg for me when you play Lamar...tell him it is from TC... Wink

Speaking of good players. How is that future Bear doing so far? Tater Salad says all his atheletic ability came from his mothers side of the family.


Guys...Guys...Tater would say Goldburg gets his talent from his mother too.... only because thats were BO BO gets his!

FUN Game tonight Colleyville vs. Grapevine @ Grapevine. I will root/hoot for Colleyville but I am a Big Grapevine fan.....so many of the kids I have known for so many years. Both teams are winners in my books! Good Luck to ALL!
