"Potentially...we're the greatest softball team out here but we're only good for 1 inning though." Chris Patterson, 2nd Baseman

My brother has been playing softball/baseball with a few teams in Memphis but the funniest team is HOWSYOMOMANEM. They are a slow pitch softball team that plays on Sunday nights. Among his teammates are Will and Chris Patterson. The best way I can describe them is to share with you an exert from their facebook page...

"Come support the greatest softball team ever assembled. Our pitcher may walk 17 batters a game, we may miss 6 out of the 4 balls hit to us (think about it..we're that bad), we may never touch homeplate, we may even swing away on a 3-0 pitch over our head and pop out to the pitcher just so we can say "I refuse to walk in softball", some of us will wake up an hour before the game and still play, heck we may throw a ball onto another field...but when we start playing for real...watch out Bartlett...Howsyomomanem is gonna bring it! "


Only on HOWSYOMOMANEM do they allow cargo shorts as part of the uniform.

Kevin and Will talking to the General Manager of HOWSYOMOMANEM. I think will is trying to get a contract extension.

These guys fun to watch as well as listen to their witty banter. These guys actually have a fan base that comes to watch every Sunday.

HOWSYOMOMANEM fans. Judy, the lady in the white shirt is "the figment."


Kevin after he slid into second. For the rest of the night I kept calling him Pig Pen from Charlie Brown. Every time he moved there was a cloud of dust.
Chris


I think this was Will's 2nd home run of the night

This is a picture of Kevin and Chris. I think Chris is the first base coach but the glove is throwing me a bit. Maybe he's playing first base...

Figgy! And as per McDowell code, she has her mouth open and isn't paying a lick of attention to the field!

I've never seen sleeveless softball uni's. That is truly awe-inspiring.
