Thanks For Your Assistance, But.....



Dear Mr. Mitchell,

The bus to Scranton/Wilkes Barre leaves today at 8:45am.

At 6:14am tomorrow is the time it will arrive.

There are a lot of stops along the way.

You have until then to gather your things.

Possibly load up on deli food and some Orange Nehi.

Are you confident that pitching is what you want to do with your life?

You still dream of the big leagues?

Pitching in that critical ninth inning, protecting a lead in a big game?

Your ticket is at the " will call" window.

Have a reflective trip.

Coal is King !

Love to you and yours,

Brian, Joe and Hal

You are cruel, Alphonso. Cruel.

You should have heard me while he was yielding a double, a single a walk and then a Grand Slam.

SOMETHING IS WRONG MENTALLY WITH THIS MOTHERFUCKER. (NOT YOU ALPHONSO, - MITCHELL).

HE PLAYS FIRST BASE AND DROPS A LITTLE LEAGUE 14 FOOT POP UP.

HE TRIES TO FIELD A SIMPLE DRIBBLER TO THE MOUND AND FUMBLES IT UP.

SLOW, LITTLE LEAGUE EASY HOP TAPPER BACK TO THE MOUND, AND HE FALLS FLAT ON HIS ASS.

NO ROOM FOR MENTAL MIDGETS AT THIS LEVEL.

YOU WOULD THINK CASHMAN CAN HAVE BUNDLED HIM IN A TRADE (INSTEAD OF KAPRELLIAN)..

I BET THE DUNCE NEVER EVEN CONSIDERED THAT.

SEND THIS BITCH BACK.

MAKE IT TRENTON, FUCK SCRANTON.
