I got a call tonight - actually a message, from a buddy of mine:"[JM] blah this is [my buddy] blah *noises in the back ground* *gibberish* softball *gibberish*"
After listening to the message three times, I still couldn't make out what he was saying, so I decided to call him back.
[My Buddy]: Hey dude, do you know a team named the Scrubs, that plays in the Boston West Coed Softball League?
[Me]: Name sounds familiar, but mmm.. not really.
At this point, i opened up the Boston West Coed Softball League web site, and saw that the Scrubs were on the brink of going through the regular season undefeated; that would explain the excitement in the earlier message.
[My Buddy]: Anyways, they are all Asian, and they are ranked third, and we played them tonight and beat them! *Quick recap of the game*
[Me]: Hey wait, you assume that I would know them because they were all Asian?! Yo man, that's racist!
[My Buddy]: Haha, ha.. ha.
[Me]: Haha, yeah, I probably know them. (checking via Google Chat with a Asian buddy of mine who plays in that league - I do know them)
[My Buddy]: I'll talk to you tomorrow.
[Me]: Alight, later dude.
I am kicking myself, if I had responded with "I'll beat yo mama in softball!!", I would be having my own teachable moment with a bucket of free suds tomorrow at the Sunset Grill.
I have never seen a pitcure of guys who are more uncomfortable while drinking beer.
