Swagger Speech - Aug 2016
It’s always bothered me that the league has not done something more significant to recognize our accomplishments. Where’s our parade? Where’s the statue? Where’s the plaque that lists all our victories? Who will teach the children how amazing we were? I suppose that will come in time.
In the meantime, what we have is a group who has seen weddings, children, hook ups, break ups, make ups, and everything in between.
In a difficult world, we’ve been a safe place for gingers.
We have not been so kind to several bags of M&Ms and countless cans of beer.
We’ve seen jeeps come and go.
We’ve been broken and rebuilt.
We’ve seen each other through highs and lows, on and off the field.
Through it all we help make things right for our teammates.
Whether that means telling someone to shut up, giving someone a high five, or feeding a friend some chicken nuggets.
So, in the meantime, while we wait for the plaques and the parades what we have is a bullet proof group who has owned this mother f-ing league.
Wash your jerseys, disinfect your gloves, and get ready to lay down another beating.
Saturday is our day to win…IT ALL…AGAIN. And decisively so. Because that’s what we do.
The cheering will not be for us. Good. It makes victory that much better.
The only question that remains is who’s drinking from the cup first?
That’s swagger…bitches!
