Let's Kick It

This afternoon in crisp fall air and under a steel grey sky the good guys beat the bad guys in a 5 ½ inning game of pick up kick ball. Snow flurries arrived late in the game but never threatened its competition. The bad guys were anchored by two seasoned league players but a pair of gutty kid performances helped the good guys in their victory.  No doubt the falling temperatures factored into the game as the air filled kick ball flattened throughout the contest as the air filling it continuously donated some of its energy to its colder surroundings. The game may also have been impact by the previous overconsumption of ribs, potato salad, cole slaw and beans. However this fact didn’t prevent any of the players from enjoying post game cookies and cake before parting ways.
