    Mr. RK's company is a sponsor of this tournament, so he will be participating in the game, I did offer to be 'water girl', so we'll see what happens-hahahhahaha!

    I was at the draft pick last night in Bellevue...some interesting names showed up on the 'potential' and 'hopeful' list.

    Hope to see some of you there!

    This sounds like a fun event. I wonder if McCready's team will be captained by either Dan Cortese or Bill Bellamy.

    Duff is Captain of McCready's team:

    I cannot guarantee to the last few names on the teams as Doug and Duff were having fun with calling out names to put on their teams...

    i heard about this.

    I'm guessing this is like the old MTV rock 'n' Jock softball and basketball days from the 90's? Jeff Ament was in the one from '93 :D

    Mr. RK played so I was there all day. His team actually ended up playing against Team PJ (not with Mike, but Tim B's team) in one of the final rounds. Team PJ ended up in the Championship round, they played really well. I didn't watch the championship game, somebody was really sore and tired and wanted to go home-hahaha!

    Said hello to Mike and a few others.

    I also won:

    Thank-you PJ for the poster, thank you to everybody who went, thanks to all the celebrities that played, it was a beautiful day to play out there!
