I heard she got picked up by Araujo's Lakewood Firecrackers. Can anyone confirm this?

I've heard umpire's that have blown a call say they SKARPED it! :o

You've heard umpires admit that they've blown a call??


Its a myth that its uncommon to admit it.

Wait, no one even commented on the "YOUR HEART, YOUR FUTURE" tab....WTH??
Here it is, in its entirety...it's a thing of beauty, too... :D


"Your Heart, Your Future

From day one, you must practice hard and push yourself beyond boundaries created by others to make how you play the game look and seem easy. To achieve superior levels of play, you must know yourself and know your limits and travel beyond them, to eliminate them.
Never limit yourself to any boundaries made by those who do not know how to reach and take you to those levels which allow you to stand out and stand alone with the few who are within the circle of the ELITE.

YOU, are the only one who truly knows who you really are and what you are fully capable of. Always follow your heart and never allow any one to tell you that you can not do the things you know you can. Your mind is the only thing that will keep you from using your full potential. Trust yourself and trust that when you give 100% of everything you have, it will be your very best, and you WILL, become the best.

You must not have any doubts or disbliefs about yourself, these will also hold you back. You must fully believe in what you do and know what you're capable of. Follow what you know is right to you and what is right in your heart. What is going to get you where you want to be will be only hard work, sacrifice and dedication, to yourself and what you want to be for the rest of your life.

Sacrifice means a lot and takes a lot to put aside. But, these are the things that are going to define who you are and show others what you really want and expect from yourself. There are going to be hard times when you don't want to practice or times you might think you don't have to practice. There will also be times that things, events, and particular people such as friends and family that are going to try to keep you from practicing. These are the times when you have to push your self twice as hard to get it done.

You and you alone will know if you give everything you have when you step on that field of play or on the field of life. When you think back and know you did not give it your all, you are going to have to live with knowing you did not put forth every effort you have and all that you have worked for. When you look at yourself in the mirror and look into your eyes you will know the truth. You can not lie to yourself, honesty begins within you.

Becoming one of the best and being number one, carries a lot of weight and pressure. It is a very lonely place at the top and too crowded at the bottom, which is filled with people either trying to gain what you have and also those who are just. Getting there is not an easy task, and will not take one or two days to get there. Your journey and the path you must lead and follow will turn into days upon months and countless years of practice, in which you have to put forth your very best efforts.

When you finally understand what you have to do and put everything else in the world secondary to what you want to do, there is a mind state you must have that becomes stronger than any force imaginable. It is a MYSTIQUE about yourself you must carry. It will show and the people around you will notice it. When you do reach these levels, you will feel differently and you will see differently, your senses become stronger, and you learn to get into a zone in which allows you to block out every thing that does not belong.

Your presence will now demand RESPECT. It is your presence that will show others who you are, and that you are within the best. It is a humbling feeling and should not become conceit, that comes over you. You now have to know how to carry yourself. Even though in your heart and mind, no one can or will never beat you or get the best of you. It is this AURA in which people will see and notice. Every time someone sees you or speaks of you they will be speaking of greatness. They will be speaking about an entity which is special.

People of this sort come around very few times in the worlds' lifetime. They are able to affect others around them and make those people want to achieve that same level of play and presence of being. When your life is defined by moments like these the sense of time and place is no more. You are no longer like any one else. You are bigger than life and what you offer is a presence unlike no other. It is unearthly and among some of the strongest forces within any universe.

What we are talking about is not a game, it is not something you just do, it becomes more than a practice. As ametures you will do it again and again, over and over untill you finally get it right. When you become one of those great people, above all the rest, you will do it so much you won't be able to get it wrong.

When you see professionals and those athletic icons playing or doing what they love to do, you will know, they did not make it where they are by doing only what is asked of them, they put in more than what is expected. They have sacrificed more than anyone will ever know. In your spare time, you must practice. Your spare time becomes the extra time in which you spend achieving that particular status.

Good luck and best of wishes to you and the journey you will embark on. I will see you in the future where I know you will be, among the best and among yourself, doing what you love to do. I will be waiting... "

Was that written by "Coach" from Survivor?
