Mama said there'll be days like this...

CULVER CITY, CA - Mama said there'll be days like this, There'll be days like this Mama said...and boy was she right. The Knights had no idea what they were getting into this past Sunday versus the Storm. Coming into the game with a first place record of 5-2 playing the 1-6 Storm on paper it seemed like a foregone conclusion, but this is why they play the game on the field and not on paper.

The Knights had carried a full squad for the 2nd time this season. But these extra bodies just added to the amount of "lay witnesses" at the scene of this crime. The visiting Knights should have known the forces of nature were against them after they failed to score in the first inning wasting a lead off double. But like sheep being looked after by two cowboys on Brokeback Mountain...they didn't have a chance at life or love on this day.

El Toro's triumphant return to the mound wasn't suppose to go like this. After two HBP's a grandslam home run and two errors in the field, it was 7-0 and all these little sheep could do is wander around aimless while they're keepers were off pitching a tent. I could go into the lack of offense (3 runs) or the lack of defense (6 errors), but it's much easier to take if you just realize that Mama was right, there'll be days like this.

So the Knights fall to 5-3 and into a first place tie with a lot of teams...one of those teams is the Evil Empire known as the LA Yankees. The Knights will look to circle the wagons and fight out of this funk. But no matter what happens this season, they'll always have this lesson...this lesson they learned up there...way up there on Brokeback Mountain.
