This doesn’t effect everyone who reads this blog. But I had a conversation with a co-worker today and it reminded me of my childhood. So I thought I would share.

Incase you don’t know, I am bigger than the average bear. I have been big since I was 10 years old. So I know what it is like to carry around some extra pounds. That’s not the issue, well at least today.

The issue I have is with the clothing franchise. 1. They never have cool or in style clothes for fat kids. Yes, we know we are the butt of all jokes, but we would have liked to worn a GAP or Tommy Hilfiger shirt once or twice in our lifetime.

2. My biggest complaint is with the word “HUSKY”. Why on jeans, especially Levi’s do they have to put the word “HUSKY” on the pants? Can’t they just write the size like they do with the other pants. I mean would it hurt to write a size or two bigger instead of the word “HUSKY”? You would actually be using less ink on the label. It’s not bad enough that we are already bigger and getting made fun of but now we have the word “HUSKY” on our ass. And to make matters worse the belt didn’t cover the word. You wonder why heavier kids wore their shirts untucked? I felt like the word was blinking in bright neon color letters.

I guess if I didn’t have the word “HUSKY” on my pants back then I wouldn’t have this story to tell you now.

So if any clothing people are reading this, please help us out and replace the word “HUSKY” with a number. You would be saving the heavy kids some heartache.

It’s like they are taking my childhood and reliving it for me. Transformers The Movie, The live version, is coming out this summer. It looks like a kickass movie. They even have the original voice of Optimus Prime. You can’t get any better than that.

Not only is that movie coming out, but also I hear that Thundercats is in the works for a movie. How stoked am I? Yes, I am a big nerd that never grew up. It’s ok. Now I don’t have to. They are coming to me. So snarf snarf if you don’t like it.

Also rumors of a G.I. Joe and a He-Man. I can’t wait!!!

Ok TB, say it with me…Go Joe!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! or Cobra-la-la -la-la-la-la-la-la-la-la-la-la-la-la-la-la-la-la

Well the season is over.  The bats have been put back in the case, the gloves in the closet.  As to a previous blog, we had a perfect season.  That’s right. 10-0 or wait, I meant to say 0-10.  That’s right we didn’t win a game.  But I will say the FBC team would won all ten if it came down to heart.  The camaraderie and dedication that each team mate brought to the field was tremendous.  Each week we took the field as if this was the World Series.  Unfortunately it wasn’t our season.  Until next season.  

We actually had a decent game last night. Only a couple of bad plays the rest were just well placed hits by the other team.  We had a couple of good rallies, but never enough to sustain them.  We had fight, we didn’t give up.

So what will happen in the off season?  We will probably trade our shortstop since he is moving to NC.  Hopefully a couple of us will continue on strengthening and training.  Only to be ready for any challenge that we might face next season.So chin up, and heads held high…
