Achy Breaky

Rather than writing the Cougar blog, much of the morning was spent on WebMD discovering cures for our aliments after we got beat up last night by Chicken Shack 11-8.   It turns out that ACHE is an acronym for A Cougar Heartbreaking Event.

The Cougars had the following painful aches after last night's game:

Headache:  From reliving the game all last night and today.

Bellyache:  After the umpire's lousy calls, the Cougars were bellyaching.

Earache:  From the deafening screams on the Shacker bench in the first half of the game and the same from the Cougar bench in the second half of the game.

Heartache:  Our hearts are heavy as our man Stabber moves out to California to conquer Silicon Valley.  We will miss him and his wonderful family.

Stomachache:  We can't beat Chicken Shack so we eat Chicken Shack.  Here is a picture of Preschlack gobbling up some chicken soon after his first home run.  Presch was certainly not lacking in his debut.

We all know the best cure for our aches is a good postgame.  Thanks to Flandog for hosting a pain-free party for both the Cougars and the Shackers.

Our only incurable ache is our backache from carrying last year's championship trophy all over town.
