Describe a recent event you are fond of.
I recently coached a T-ball team. Midway through the season all 10 of my players could hit a pitch that was thrown at them. I had a deal with my players if they threw nine people out at first base they could pour the water cooler on my head. The last game of the season they threw eight players out with one batter left. They all got hype. The batter steps up and rips one to my third baseman. He scoops it up and slings it to first base. Bammm. Number 9 and we win the chip undefeated! Needless to say I was soaked in Gatorade.
