Sorry for the delay, I know you’ve all been waiting with baited breath for this blog to come back to life.

I should have written prior to this, but since that didn’t happen, it’s now fun to go back and see where this team has come so far this season, just past the half way point.

A quick catch-up for this season, the regular season has ... Continue Reading

The banshee didn't suck. Sorry for the long break in between posts, Camille Toes. But for the last two weeks, everything and everybody sucks.  I can even put my finger on when it began.  It started when I asked Garrett to get me somewhere on time.  Here’s the story:
