6. Houlie24x - LCF

7. BrewCrew2021

8. Valpo - 2B

9. Gypcasino - RF/C?

10. lcbj68c - SS/3B

11. Happy Youngster - SS/3B

EDIT: I have included possible positions. Thoughts?

 

Also, Nick, I have you at SS/3B as well, but forgot your screen name.

 

EDIT DOS: Please come early to the game (6:30 or so) so we can fill out player cards.

[Crazyk1294]

I will be there.

[Houlie24x]

I'll be there.

[BrewCrew2021]

I'm there

[valpocrewsader]

Wait, we have a game already next week Friday?

[bball123h2]

Yea. Why our league wouldn't start in May and go thru July, I don't know. We are done with our season come July I think.

[valpocrewsader]

I'll be there.

 

EDIT: Only 8. Of the rest of our roster, who is definitely out and who is unknown at this time?

[gypcasino]

I'll be there.

[bball123h2]

Of those who have paid, still waiting to hear from Happy Youngster, Nullbyte, and Nullbyte's brother. I'll send them PM's shortly.

[lcbj68c]

I will be there. Sorry, was at Shea all day and NYC all weekend and hadn't a chance to respond. Bball, sorry for the crazy winter, I will bring you a check to the practice on Tuesday.

[bball123h2]

No worries. Glad you got to see the dump before they blow it up! I'd love to be able to push the plunger on that place...

[lcbj68c]

I wont turn this into a thread detailing my trip, but yeah, having never been to NYC, I took the John Rocker 7 train and was absolutely blown away at the garbage and grafitti and bums and homeless and minorities playing music for money. Sure, there were a good share of good people and I'll post a bigger thread in the off-topic perhaps detailing the experience, but I was generally unimpressed.

[TheHappyYoungster]

I'll be there.

[nullbyte]

I'm out, unfortunately -- out of town. Gauntlet21 or whatever number he picked (my brother) was planning to make it, I believe.

[valpocrewsader]

Nick was Happy. If he's down with playing 3B, and lcbj68c (Luke?) is okay with SS, that sounds good to me. I've wanted to move over from SS/3B and get some time at 2B since our first season in 2006 -- I think it's actually a better fit for me.

[lcbj68c]

I'm cool with the move to SS. I've spent the past 4 years playing mostly 2b and pitcher when they made me. I'll enjoy the move. I was impressed with Nick at 3B and think we'll make a solid left side of the infield. Valpo, we can do some DP work up the middle if you get the time, and that goes for anybody else who ever wants to get in some quick practice. I've got a bag of about 50 balls and am used to just going out and hitting, some times just two of us in Florida. Hit me up on the cell anytime when the sun shines. PM me for the number! Luke

[Crazyk1294]

I'm pumped! I guess I should wear #8...

[gauntlet21]

i'll be there as well... i played outfield in high school, but im versatile i suppose http://forum.brewerfan.net/images/smilies/smile.gif

[gauntlet21]

in case of rainouts, is there a league website that we can check or how can we be notified? does the coach call us and leave messages with out mommy at home?

[valpocrewsader]

In previous years, notification has always appeared here in the forum.

[gauntlet21]

ok sounds good, just checking, im a n00b!

[radman12484]

According to a few channels for weather wise. Suppose to be on and off light rain most of the day. So we may get lucky and play this I think.

[lcbj68c]

In most of the futurecasts I've seen, the rain stays well West (Madison) until in the wee morning hours Saturday.

[radman12484]

Yeah it looks to be that way now too. Looks really good for us playing. I'm excited. It's like christmas morning for me.

[Houlie24x]

I'm not sure I'll be able to play. My back is still pretty sore. I'll be there early and see how it feels, but I just wanted to post that its a possibility that I can't play.
