I just wanted to say Merry Christmas to all of the members of the undisputed, outright KINGS of American Legion…..VERDUGO!!!!!!! It goes without saying that peace and goodwill shall continue to dog every footstep we take…….but I still had to extend to all former Verdugo-ites my sincerest blessings (as biased as they may be).
Now, to all of the rest of the green-eyed-with-envy-opponents of ours (who became our personal whipping boys for all of those years) I also have a Holiday message for you,too! And here it is:
May your Holiday Season(s) always be tainted with drunken family arguments. May the turkey dinner you eat be tainted with salmonella. May the eggnog you drink “taste funny”….and may it be discovered after ingesting that the expiration date on it was about three weeks ago.
Sincerely,
Gee
Once again…..THEY’VE DONE IT!!! Verdugo….the outright, undisputed KINGS of American Legion Baseball for All-Time!!!!
I have also taken the opportunity over the Holiday Season to extend a challenge to Fat-Jody from Notre Dame. I have sent him TWO emails challenging him to a softball game between the members of Verdugo (90-93) against Notre Dame (90-93).
I sent these emails a couple of weeks ago. As of today………NO ANSWER from Fat Jody. And Jody..if you’re reading this out there, remember this. We at Verdugo have no respect at all for you. We do (I must say) have “great admiration” for you……but still (after all of these years)……no respect. And I’m sure that neither of us would want it any other way. We’re pretty sure you have no respect for us, either!!!
The Deadline for your response to our challenge Jody is January 10th, 2012. If we do not hear back from you by 11:59PM on that date…….we will have to assume you are in no position to move on our challenge. Verdugo will be awarded the victory via forfeit.
I sent ‘Ol Jody a nice picture of us from our Reunion as well. I would have paid $$$ to see the look on his face!!!!
So here is my Holiday message to Jody: “LIKE A NIGHTMARE…….WE’RE BACK!!!!!!!!!!!!”
And once again….to the members of VERDUGO: Merry Xmas and Happy New Year!!!! AHHHH!!!!
verdugo288 
To all the guys,
Merry Christmas and a wish for a prosperous New Year. It was good to see all of you at the Reunion and I hope we can all get together again.
To Gee,
Get on with it!!! True TERROR lies ahead! Much RESPECT to the 90-91 brothers and the founding fathers of Legion 288 Baseball but C’mon MAN…The following two years were undeniable DOMINATION. Two years filled with bench clearing brawls, shutouts, RALLY WIGS, gar burns and outright DISRESPECT for the competition.
Gee! QUICK…PANTHER LIKE. Get on it man! Put those fingers to the keys and bring it home.
Take care Guys,
Fielder
Ok Thunder……..you got it!
I apologize to the 92-93 guys that kicked so much ass for dropping the ball.
Haggs has been bugging me as well. It’s time for Gee to (in your words Thunder) “bring it home.”
I have some cool ideas for this blog as well so I must admit I’ve (at least) been thinking about it.
We still have plenty of video footage from the Reunion to go through as well and edit into something cool.
My New Year’s Resolution……..TO GET BACK ON THE KEYBOARD.
You’re right Thunder……….the time has come.
i say ahhh to the challenge — fat jody will never, would never reply — how could he? — if he does, he’ll regret it — he’d get double schooled today
i hope all former Verdugo Hills Stars are enjoying some peaceful time with family and friends — hope to see you all someday soon
