I like using the word flaccid about things that aren't penises. It makes people awesomely uncomfortable.

Isn't this ridiculous? Could be worse, Vernon County Wisconsin just surpassed 100 inches of snow for the year.

Wisconsin does not play spring HS baseball, it's a summer sport there. And you have to realize you are just a stones throw away from not having spring HS baseball. I remember in HS once getting games cancelled in April due to a heavy snow, and that was down in Springfield.

Spring will get here sooner or later. Imagine how the HS players must feel.

I know in Southern WI, baseball starts around the 1st week of April. Teams in Kenosha have been practicing since Monday.

High of 67 in St. Louis today.

But we have flooding. I'd rather have snow than floods.

Great - my daughter and her friends are meeting in Chicago today for a long weekend. Staying in the Loop, going to see Wicked, seeing the sites.

And apparently dealing with a foot of snow.

Really? Over by LaCrosse it's a summer sport I think.

Yep, I talked to a coach last week and he was getting ready for practice on Monday.

So yep it is a summer sport? Do some of the southern schools start early, and the general Wisco season starts later?

No, as far as I know all the schools around here start in Spring.
