APPLES TO PLAY !

Apples Back In Business
Mayor Dean Involoved

Nashville, TN.

After last months announcement that they would suspend softball operations for the 2009 season, it is today being reported that the Apples are back.

Reports out of Nashville say that several prominent local dignitaries possibly including Mayor Dean have been working behind the scenes to keep the Apples intact and on the diamond.

Although efforts to contact the Mayor were unsuccessful, it is believed that Dean made a last minute appeal to the Apples and discussions have led to the Apples willingness to field a team in the Granny White Coed Softball League.

In addition to local efforts to save the Apples, reports have the Apples also receiving bailout money from the Federal Government which may have also played a part in the change of direction.

With the President in Europe this week, it is unclear at this time if the Obama administration will insist that Apple Tony Byram be replaced as manager of the Apples as part of the bailout deal. Efforts to reach Byram were unsuccessful this morning.

Once again, leave it to the Apples to surprise all. With a rich history of excitement and success in their rear view mirrors, could it be that we will again lay witness to another year of Apples Coed Softball glory?

When contacted for comment on today's breaking news, AGFHOF Don Bernitt was quick to say " Today is April 1st, I'm not thinking about softball yet. Try me back in a few weeks."


How bout them Apples.......
