Calhoun
Here's the thing about Calhoun. When we show up, we win (or tie). That's the bottom line. So what's with all this forfeit stuff, you ask? Frankly, I have no answer for you. I guess it's generosity, or maybe the sense of danger one gets from being one forfeit away from death. I don't know, but whatever it is, I'm sure that everyone at 189 Elm St. knows what they're doing.Case in point: baseball. Game one, the 'Houn sends out no one. Not a soul. Only one person shows up at the meeting place, and he doesn't even bother to go out. Berkeley gets pissed, everyone gets pissed, and Berkhoun forfeits. Game two was a different story. Some punk with a Calhoun baseball jersey leads off the first with a single, steals second and third, then scores when a Texas Leaguer from Brannan "I wish I were more outgoing and got out of my" Schell '01 drops in. He then scores to make it 2-0, and Berkhoun eventually wins 4-3, also thanks to contributions from Jamie "Return my bat to" McGuire '01 and Amar "I have 14 years of rust" Mann '99.
Since the 'Houn already has forfeits out of the softball and field hockey teams as well, it's only a matter of time before those teams race to the top of the standings, helping Calhoun return to IM preeminence.
