Greetings, Bob Michael


This is your local Simply Positive Reviewer, here! Your writing has been selected for review, as part of Simply Positive's mission to bring more light on Authors here at WDC!

First Impressions: "Hoover Hicks"  was one of those yarns that we come across every now then, making this one especially interesting to me not in the idea that it was well-written....no....I am more thinking that this would be more like a Farrelly Brothers script if one thinks about it more clearly! I kow baseball, and I know how it is on the mound, godforbid you find your bladder full from the gatoraid and the school field you play on has no such thing as an outdoor privy. Eh well, those are the breaks.

Naturally, most "funny" baseball pitching stories have such handy items as batters getting beaned below decks so to speak, but this one adds one on with the beaning of the Art Teacher who....get this...needs a tractor pull to get her the 70 yards to the front door of the School RN who then does triage outside of the ambulance.

No word on whether the Art Teacher can fit inside the ambulance...but hell..there is always the tractor, dude...



Overall Impact: We could honestly get the Farrelly Brothers yucking it up with some dude whizzing the mound...but...WHO is going to take over the "relief" pitching duties when the pitcher already has "relief pitching duties"??? THAT would be one for the mathematicians who wisely didnt attend this game for fear of getting nailed where the occam's razor sometimes comes in handy when you need to be taped in places where the hair neednt be left on. Pulling hair off with 3M tape is never a jiffy.



Errors: Oh heck, the story had no errors in it, though I was looking forward to some kind of Keystone Cops playing in the outfield sort of gig. Lucky me. None there so far!



Summation: This story has the POTENTIAL to be SO MUCH more. SO MUCH MORE what with the pitching genius clearly not exploited as it should be. A young gun signed up the moment another teammate goes down. A twin brother whose funky pitching needs some primacy here, but his kid brother is gonna give the team a better chance...well...might this happen....YET? On the edge of the seat here, but please let us know when the sequel shows up.

Popcorn anyone?
