May showers bring...May flowers?
The rain-out date for today's games, as posted on the Web site, is to be on Friday, May 8. Let's just hope it doesn't rain Friday as well.
So its about that time of the year again and everyone's been talking about it. It's one of the most exciting events for our ballplayers throughout the year and is quite competitive. The HBQVB-hosted Lomangino Tournament, which occurs every August, involves ballplayers aged 8-15. Each year, we have over 80 teams compete and are guaranteed at least four games. Fee includes umpires, balls, and T-shirts. But best of all, registration can be done through our Web site! To get involved, contact Ken Conyers. Time and date is still TBA, but the more input we get, the faster we can get a go on things.
So I'm not necessarily a Mets or Yankees fan, but I've got to say, I've really had enough with Alex Rodriguez. The guy's infamous and is constantly being featured in newspapers. Yeah, he's been in and out of court, surgery, and the D.R., but could the Yankees maybe keeping him because of all the publicity he's been getting? And now, he might or might not have tested positive during high school, according to Selena Roberts' new book. What kind of example does that set four our youth today?

More Pics
Here are some pics from the B&P Chimney vs. Drexler game on Friday, April 24.
A man walks into a bar with a dog. The bartender says, "You can't bring that dog in here."
"You don't understand," says the man. "This is not regular dog, he can talk."
"Listen, pal," says the bartender. "If that dog can talk, I'll give you a hundred bucks."
The man puts the dog on the stool, and asks him, "What's on top of a house?"
"Roof!"
"Right. And what's on the outside of a tree?"
"Bark!"
"And who's the greatest baseball player of all time?"
"Ruth!"
"I guess you've hear enough," says the man. "I'll take the hundred in twenties."
The bartender is furious. "Listen pal," he says, "get out of here before I belt you!"
As soon as they're on the street, the dog turns to the man and says, "Do you think I should have said DiMaggio?"

Opening Day
A short, early edition of the the Floral Park Bulletin:
All games that were scheduled for yesterday, April 20, are scheduled to be played on Friday, April 24.
Opening Day, its parade, and ceremony was a huge success, with a turnout of more than 2,000 participants. This was by far, the largest gathering on Opening Day HBQVB has seen in years! Classic cars and a fire truck led the way for bag pipers and a drum corps followed by players, parents, league members, and supports alike for HBQVB’s 56th annual celebration.
If any parent is interested in getting involved with a softball game on Grand Slam Day, Saturday, June 20, at 6 p.m., please contact Margie Ruiz at 516-902-2970 or by e-mail at Triguenita549@optonline.net.
For any girls interested in being a part of HBQVB’s first ever 8U tournament team, please contact Jerry Witthauer at 718-347-5708 or witthauer.jerry@gmail.com. There will also be a notice placed on the bulletin board between the concession stand and the equipment stand.
Girls should be at least sever-years-old before January 1, 2009 and no older than nine-years-old by this year, and be registered in either the Minor Girls or the Pee-Wee divisions at HBQVB. The Babe Ruth tournament is July 11 and 12 in Staten Island, and other tournaments throughout May, but will be filled-in quickly, so parents need to sign their kids up as soon as possible.
As a reminder, this is a first ever tournament we are trying to create for the benefit of our young girls to get them motivated and experienced in ball playing at a young age. Do not miss out on this opportunity.
For work detail opportunities, the league needs more women to help out at the concession stand; a donation of flowers would be appreciated, and having trade workers is always helpful. For further information on work details, please call Frank Rizzo at 718-464-6088.
