The East Tennessee Baseball Club...

I assume you had a quorum at this meeting?

Yep,
Two thirds membership was present.

Congrats on the Franklin Co. win, they are a fine team to beat.

Guess I can't fight "the man" or the system.

Did you volunteer me for any committees in my absence?

How does one become a member ??

ahsbb - apparently it's some super-secret organization established for the specific benefit of hsbbweb and HiwaseeVol. I was admitted to the organization for the sole purpose of being on the hook for lunch. They formed the "club" at a time when it I couldn't attend. And apparently my turn to "receive" lunch was forfeited in accordance with the whims of the other members.

Let me caution you ahsbb. When you "swim with the sharks, you might get bitten".

ahsbb,

There ARE hidden costs, my friend.

I can meet those requirements, except for the Raybans. Does that mean I'm black-balled already? Would really enjoy with y'all and doing the lunch thing some time, especially if it's on Biz's tab.

PlayersDad,
No that won't hurt! Send me your phone number by email so I can call next time, I'll put in in my cell phone.

Player's Dad - be careful, or you might be feeding HV and his "friends".

There's a rumor being circulated that the Inner-West Knoxville Chapter of the East Tennessee Baseball Club is considering secession because of perceived inequities in the sharing of meal costs.

More later.

Me thinks that Mr. Snyder doth protest too much! Where else could he find such stimulating lunch conversation for the mere cost of picking up the lunch tab?

New members always welcome.

Bob, speaking of meetings, any chance we'll see you when West plays at Heritage or William Blount this week?

Biz,

I'll stop by Heritage on Monday ..... going to be a little busy on Wednesday night!

Entertaining "out of town" celebrities

Look forward to visiting your neck of the wood. Since the game's later I think I'll find a way to get there. I'm looking forward to seeing this improved Heritage team.

I guess you will be busy Wednesday. Let me know if you want my seats.

BTW-South Doyle is at West Tuesday (6:30).

I've heard about the "Shriners" for years and now we have the " 'Shiners"... just too much for the world to handle..

It's always nice to hear from the president of out Alabama chapter, we call it the "Bubba Club".

Bama,
Looked at the SEC East standings lately?

Any chance of having a Bama chapter meeting in the Gulf Shores area?

Bizazz,
That could be arranged. You covering the cost or is HiwasseeVol?

HV,
I've been watching the SEC standings closely.

RayBans for President! He's 'Da Man!

Now that we have heard from his own lips what the problem was with recruiting and he's gotten rid of the problem (Deer Hunter) it's time to rally around RayBans and cheer 'em Vols on to the SEC title.

HiwasseeVol? Covering costs?

If the Vols take 2 this weekend, I'm a believer. I don't care what HiwasseeVol says.
