Dude, Where's My Softball Opponent?

With Macy's apparently caught up in preparations for their upcoming Memorial Day White Sale, the Bad News was left to while away their evening in Central Park, sans opponent. As dusk approached, and word spread that Macy's was one of five teams erroneously arguing for the right to play at the Coleman Oval, victory by way of forfeit was awarded to the Bad News.

Much thanks to everyone who went out of their way to make it to the field for this one -- especially Danny, Eric and Val -- without you guys, the Bad News would have been perilously close to playing shorthanded. Though that was admittedly less pertinent after Macy's failed to deliver so much as a shipping clerk to Central Park. Players of the game recognition goes to Nicole Chantharaj and Kevin Ma for delivering a fully-staffed team, and equipment, to the correct field for game time.

Next game: The Bad News is off Memorial Day week, but mark down Tuesday, June 5, 7:10 p.m. -- that's when the Ball Field Battle of the Media Titans hits Coleman Oval, with SourceMedia's Bad News taking on a squad from the New York Daily News.
