Posted by Burrow I think the best stories about road trips are best told face to face and not part of a written record anywhere. There are probably many, many ex-players out there who, out of fear, would agree with me. I would like to start posting a "Most Memorable Quotes" section, though. This could be on or off the field (PG-13) as long as it involves UTA baseball alumni. We could even start with this one... "You are a mental piss-ant" - Butch McBroom to just about everyone who ever played for him at one time or another. --Previous Message--

I've been thinking about your proposal for a road trip story. And the conclusion I've come to is.......no.
: It's great to see some action back at the
: site. There was about two months last fall
: with nary a post/update. A couple of
: things, though:
: -Not nearly enough representation of former
: Mavs from this decade. I know there's a lot
: of us, and I know several check out the
: site, so let's pick up the pace, fellas.
:
: -I realize this horse has been beaten into
: submission, but Moe, we need you man. Once
: every eight months ain't gonna cut it. At
: the very least get yourself a ghost writer
: (like maybe Batlle, it's not like he does
: anything anyway).
:
: -As I write this I am able to look to my
: immediate right and see my 2005 UTA Baseball
: Alumni Golf Tournament Championship Trophy.
: I'm unable to remember exactly what our team
: shot, but I'll never forget the number of MY
: shots that we used: 3. Which, incidentally,
: is the number of golf balls that I saw every
: time I looked down to swing. That thing is
: fun, but I (along with my liver) am glad it
: only occurs once a year.
:
: -Great pictures of that mid-70's roadie.
: And it seems that there is a great story
: that goes along with it. That got me
: thinking: we should hold a road-trip story
: contest. Let any former Mav(s) post a story
: (PG-13 or tamer, of course, unless Burrow
: signs off on an R-rated contest) from a road
: trip. There needn't be a prize, just the
: satisfaction of knowing your story was the
: best.
:
: Sorry this post is so long. It's just that
: I'm a proud UTA Baseball Alumni and I enjoy
: reading everyone else's posts, even if I
: have no idea who they are or what they're
: talking about. This is a great fraternity
: to be a part of, and I've never met a former
: player I didn't like. Except Dave Engelson.
: Go Mavs!
