    God, who allows it to rain on the just and unjust, allowed what many thought would be a sure wash-out to be played on a day with 60+% chances of rain throughout the day... and I thank HIM. (Minor league Dash game rained out less than 10 miles away...)

    I also thank and give respect and honor to East Forsyth coach Alan Plaster. He worked on his field (the host site of the tournament) Monday night and several hours Tuesday - with his father - to make sure a team (#6 seed Glenn) had the chance to play it out. Our win cost his team (#4 seed East) a playoff spot. It may be little compliment or consolation, but the man did an honorable, right thing - which many in today's culture may have neglected. I don't mean to imply it surprises me for him to have done it - but how much he did, and without complaint or "what ifs" -well, simply he worked for kids not his own and for the sake of The Game. RESPECT...

    Much respect for Alan Plaster, like JM said, That is definitely what it's all about. Very glad you were able to get out and play without getting rained on. It's been raining on us pretty consistently here for the last few days, so no playing right now :53:
