Spring Training 2005

Pre-trip banter.

"The pool is quite large; however, the majority of the pool was too deep"
-Traveler review of Radisson on Travelocity

Wanger: We have reservations at Don and Charlies at 8 PM next Wednesday night. I told them to make sure that we are seated at a table served by Rachel.
Dorp: So will they arrest us for stalking before dinner or let us enjoy the meal first?

Wanger: We have a tee time.
Dorp: Great, what day?
Wanger: St. Patrick's day. I hope I have something green to wear.
Dorp: I hope my ball lands on the green.

"Dorp, can you arrange to drop some tickets off so we have to drive an hour out of our way again?" -Murph

"The Brewers are off to a 5-0 start this spring." -Dorp, not but a few hours before the Brew Crew gets handed an 18-5 defeat by the Padres.

"Dorp, you should be fired from the hotel selection committee. One year you pick a family place. Now you follow it up with an executive conference center." -Brendan, chiming in regarding the accomodations
