No such luck, my ovine pal.
twickster takes the ball and bounces it a few times, looking around the field for inspiration. Aha! She’ll turn it into a kite and fly it above the stadium, in hopes of attracting some teammates.
Scott colides with her in mid air, and somehow, the ball winds up in the back of his shirt collar…
But is stolen by Sternvogel, whose attempt to fly it ends up with the erstwhile ball stuck in the Kite-Eating Tree. Climbing up to claim it is…
…Enterprise, who discovers he is afraid of heights and hopes new team-mate Regallag (I hope I didn’t misspell that) the Axe will chop the tree down in due time. Meanwhile, he places it in a bird’s nest where it is found by…
gardentraveler, who arrives home just in time to score a GOOOOOAAAAAAAALLLLLLLLL for the Odds. (Can someone update the score? I have to leave for dinner now…?)
So again, I put the ball into play. A ball? No – I am handed a suitcase containing unknown things and stamped “McGuffin”…wonder what’s in it…I check it in at SeaTac airport for a flight to…
Mount Rushmore, where twickster grabs the suitcase and starts climbing up Washington’s nose…
Suddenly, Mel Gibson falls through the air. While you are distracted, you see a fat white man and his red-heade wife leaving the scene, as well as an average looking white male wearing a bussiness suit. Which one has it?
<Stewie Griffin>I meant to put in a line about how while you are distracted by Mel, the ball is grabbed. :smack: Damn you women, and your “The administrator has specified that users can only post one message every 60 seconds.” rule. I curse the day I escaped from your retched womb.
<Stewie Griffin >
:: knocks scott over, and take the ball ::
Haha, Mr. Ball! I have you now! Take this!
:: Hurls the ball a quite ridiculous distance ::
And it winds up bonking twickster in the head as she stands in line for Space Mountain at Disney World. She grabs it and tucks it in her purse, since she just got to the front of the line…
gardentraveler waits some time quite impatiently for **twicks ** to emerge from Space Mountain. Finally, she sees her exit, grabs the ball and heads for breakfast with Princesses, which the Doperball insists it wants to attend. We are chatting animatedly with a princess when…
In case anyone is interested, I just went back and computed the score. Assuming my arithmetic is accurate, the Evens are up 4-3.

danceswithcats happens along, disguised as Happy, Sleepy, Sneezy, Wheezy, Dopey, Horny, or Julio (the alternate dwarves) and grabs the ball from gardentraveler
hi ho, hi ho, for Doperball we go, now don’t you grouse you little louse, hi ho, hi ho
I appear, disguised as Little Red Rdding Hood, hope that there are no bears around, grab the ball, and make a break for it.
gardentraveler doesn’t see any bears, but jumps out from behind a tree, disguised as a wolf and grabs the ball. She goes off to grandmother’s house, where
she encounters danceswithcats disguised as Grandma.
gardentraveler: My what a big censored you have, Grandma!
danceswithcats: Yo! This is a family oriented thread-don’t be talking about my censored! Gimme that Doperball, or I’ll huff and I’ll puff and I’ll mix up your Fairy Tales!
With that, danceswithcats heaves the ball out the window to…
Feydeau, who grabs the ball and feeds it to the cow-as-white-as-milk. In three days, we shall have a new DoperBall!
…three days later, Enterprise retrives the new ball from the cow’s belly by a process he’d rather not describe, and passes it off to…
twickster, who’s not sure whether to be happy or disappointed that she doesn’t get to? have to? play Snow White amongst this scurvy crew. She’s thinking the cow-extracted ball might go great with cookies, so she heads off to the supermarket, where she encounters…
