I want to sincerely apologize to everyone in Class D for my once prestigious
Forfeetai Lions putting on such a terrible display over the weekend. Missing 2 of your best players is no excuse to lose 3 straight games 7-0. We've gotten pretty used to playing games at our fields in southern Mandan so those fast-a$$ infields in Biz totally messed us up
We ALMOST scored a run against Rhimbus, but we stranded him on 2nd-base sadly. Par for the goddamn course.
Big thanks to the tournament directors though for allowing us to play (& lose) 3 consecutive games in what was supposed to be a double-elimination tournament. We did complain quite a bit that the brackets kept randomly labeling us "Forfeit" instead of our actual team name (Forfeetai Lions) and hey, I guess the squeaky wheels got the grease in this case. Though the joke was eventually on us because our 3rd & final game was against the RimorHashers and sure enough, another brutal 7-0 beating.
Good luck to everyone at Nationals in Fargo anyways. Our sorry bums won't be making the trip.
