Slugs Rock Their Way Into an 0-6 Record

Perhaps we shouldn't have rolled out all of our curse breaking tools on the night we were to play Loose Change. This is the team that's gone undefeated this season, the team with 41 runs heading into tonight's game, the team sponsored by a bank whose roster seems to have benefited from the sub-prime mortgage meltdown (like maybe they recruited some jobless buff mortgage brokers or something). The Slugs lost. I'm not sure of the score, something like 5-12. But that's not the point.

Tonight, the Slugs got their groove back. Many of the ladies wore skirts. And we looked hot, if I may say so myself. Better yet, each Slug had a theme song (see below for complete play list). Our defense was nearly flawless, and we put together several excellent runs where multiple Slugs got on base and some even made it home. Against any other team this would have meant victory. So, next week we must do it all again. We will defeat Beer 30 and they won't even know what hit them.

And for those of you who would like to download the Slugs nearly winning playlist to your ipod, here goes...

The Megadeth Slug is my favorite Slug. Reminds me of the good ol' days when they would actually play the El Dorado Saloon. Anyone?
