This page is dedicated to gathering the various bits of wit, wisdom and random ramblings of players, fans and other spectators of the O-fers Softball Club. If you overheard something of note, please jot it down and either deliver it to Bryan Sullivan or e-mail coach@o-fers.com. Give us as much detail about the circumstances surrounding the memorable words as possible, because sometimes it's just not funny unless you were there.
