Ok...Last Post......

Bonjour les gars,
I wanted to share some more last moments from this weekend. Going to get to it now...
We lost. We lost the first game on Saturday and couldn't pull off a win in the 11 inning second game. We had the lead in both games and it really could have gone either way. But that is life and the Woodchucks are moving on. It was a very sad moment in Mudville that day but I didn't feel so much joy in a matter of minutes.

It was just really bizarre. I was completely depressed with tears after I made the last out of the playoffs. I was welcomed with open arms from all of the guys coming out from the bench. I didn't even hear the celebration that was going on behind me. A real brotherhood moment. Don't really know how else to put that. The best part of the whole thing was...

We still drank our beers.

I learned so much yesterday as well as the past eight months. I am going to share pics from yesterday as well as Olivear's and my last song together.









Hope you enjoyed reading my blog. I know you say that you appreciate what I have written but I have to tell you that it was a joy to do.

Hell...I have been on a 8 month vacation really.

I love you guys and I will see you tomorrow. Au Revoir.

Thanks for the update - sorry about the games but life happens - look forward to hearing about it -

and to your fellow players - thanks for looking after my little brother - I hoped you learned somethings from him because I know he learned from you.

I'm so glad you posted! Sorry to hear about the losses, but what a great ride. Thanks to all for making Tony's 8 month stay in Rouen a very memorable one, and one that Bob and I will never forget.

I get a picture of you and your backpack and guitar walking down the cobblestone street of Romain Ave. and I completely understand your melancholy leaving behind not only such a beautiful place but also leaving such loving friends.

Have a safe journey home! Come home SHANE!! Mom

Hey Guys...I will not be able to talk to you before I arrive in KC. Sorry, have a ton of stuff on my plate right now. So see you tomorrow. Love you.
Mom, I cant tell you how good it feels to walk with my guitar case down Rue St. Romain. Bye

Tony

Hi there.

Was wondering what Marc, your pitcher, is up to other than baseball?! I knew him back home here in Canada, went to highschool together!

Lemme know!
