Why I hat Baseball!

LOL! This thread is SO funny - brings back memories! Dianne, I'm with you - I was the Queen of Right Field (never played any other position and never wanted to either). There I'd sit, cross-legged in the grass, picking flowers and daydreaming.... If a ball came RIGHT to me, I'd pick it up, but there was no way I was going to get up and actually RUN for a ball! I could never understand why the other girls would get so angry and yell at me, gee, it's only a game!

Ah, this thread reminds me of my favorite song from Disney's The Hunchback of Notre Dame, or at least the way I remember it....

God Help the Outfield
I don't know if You can hear me
Or if You're even there.
I don't know if You would listen
To my ballpark prayer.
Yes, I'm in the lonely outfield
I shouldn't speak to you
Still I see Your face and wonder
Did you play the outfield too?

God help the outfield,
People of mirth,
Lacking those helpful
Hand-eye skills from birth.
God help my teammates
Who play way out there
God help the outfield
We look to the air.

Ricks (who was just happy to get picked last)
