This is an oldie that I guess I forgot to post. It is not a substitute for Day 2 of the Everyday Project.
Once upon a time, on or about January 29, 2012, a call went out through the kingdom know as MMWLL. There would be an All League meeting and work party. All were invited to attend. Many did and between then and the start of the season, the kingdom was clean. Most teams worked on the designated days. Some did not and suffered the penalty of not practicing. But the kingdom was clean.

As time went on, the trash cans were not emptied at the end of each day. They became full and overflowed. Pieces of trash blew out of the trash cans and hovered near their former home. Once in a while a great wind would blow through the kingdom and the lonely trash would move farther and farther away until it clung to the fences or nestled in the weeds. Oh how the trash longed to be in a receptacle such as a trash can or especially the dumpster. And now the MMWLL is not clean. Trash cans overflow. Trash litters the kingdom.
A great tournament will be held called the TOC. Visitors from miles around will see our trash and not be pleased. The president and her court will not be pleased. Our league will not be looked favorably upon.
Divisions with clean fields will be praised and rewarded. Divisions with trashy fields will be called out.
The moral of the story is EMPTY THE TRASH CANS AND PICK UP THE TRASH.
It is what it is....
