Where are they NOW?

THE ROSTER : Where are they Now??

ALVIN [the Guppy] HEW
The fish has been caught, cleaned and gutted. Guppy has comfortable settled down into the life of a good husband and a doting father. Jeffery "lil guppy" Hew is the latest addition to the softball family, and with so many doting "uncles". He'll be throwing, hitting and fielding better than his dear ol' dad before he turns 10

KYLE [Hello Kitty] Latinis
They would never need a DNA test to prove Mina is Kyle's daughter. A potential heart-breaker and armbreaker, Mina joined the Latinis family 3 years ago and has warmed our hearts ever since. A sad thing happened to the Kitty in Cambodia. He was involved in a motorcycle accident, with major surgery to follow. Little did the Kitty know, that the bastard that crashed into his bike, also stole his bat. He then did a reverse-Ruth, moving from the big bat to the pitching mound, where he believes that everything he throws is a strike.

LLOYD [Chief Wahoo] YEO now known "The Cheetah"
Lloyd has run a very successful softball programme in Montfort Sec. So successful, that his Montfort kids have taken present saturdaysoftball team and spanked them silly. If you ask a saturdaysoftball player, "who's your daddy?", they'd say "Lloyd's kids"

MARTIN [The Flamingo/Contrary] BAZLYLEWICH
Repatriated. Though he has promised to return, we have had nary a sighting of this famous canuck since he departed from our shores to pursue his further studies. We eagerly await his return. Softball has never been the same without Canadian rules. His Halloween and Canadian Day parties are still whispered in reverance to the ears of the new blood.

GOH [Jugs] GEOK YIAN
Geok left for the sunny skies of Hawaii to study advanced surfing, Burmese epigraphy and slacking. She comes back annually for holidays and everytime she comes back, she gets better and better. Sure proof that they grow a better weed over in Hawaii. She has been back for the last couple of months, awaiting her visa to enter Burma and she has been outstanding at second base and has burned Money many a time when he comes in shallow for "a girl" at bat.

CHRIS
Missing in Action

JOHN [Indiana] MIKSIC
John had a quadruple bypass. John came back. John is fitter than before. John is stronger than before. John is a better first baseman than before. John does gymnastics at shortstop. John eats healthy, lives healthy and distills the best vodka this side of the galaxy. Proof that age and a quadruple bypass are no barriers to living and feeling young. We should all be ashamed.

BRIAN FARRELL
Retired

ANTONY [Nigel, Tuquo, Kiwi] KENNEDY
Missing in Action

RICHARD [Big Dick] NG
Big Dick came back to Singapore for a year during the 2003-4 season because he ran out of money. He made a wad of cash trading oil futures but ultimately decided that the frozen shores of Canada held too much appeal(plus he made enough to retire again). During his return he played some fine outfield and he proved that some people never lose their bats. We're looking forward to his next return.

CHRIS [the Gimp] YONG now known as "The Legend"
Chris had successful knee surgery to repair the torn ACL. He came back with the biggest hit of saturday softball history to win the first and only championship trophy. With the score tied, bottom of the ninth, 2 outs, and 2 strikes on him, Chris hit the ball, so far they have yet to find it, to win the IFG finals with a solo home run. Chris hitting has deproved tremendously since then, and that hit can only remain in legendary status. Chris has now taken Coach's place at all time shortstop, because he can't hit anymore.

DAN [the Naked Savage] YANG now known as "DY would've had that"
"DY would've had that" is the war cry of all 3rd basemen and catchers alike. No player has exhibited the range and speed in the field, and though we lost DY to the gloomy skies of boston. We still remember him fondly and await his return with baited breath. DY also got married in the last year, but the heavy ball and chain has not slowed his step down one bit, though the whip marks are pretty obvious. Interestingly enough, the year that he moved to Boston, they won the world series. Maybe his arrival appeased the angry spirit of the Babe. Either that or the bosox were ashamed that DY had more hustle than all of them combined.

DAN [Coach] CROSSWELL now know as "The New Coach"
Somewhere in the last 2 years, we lost the coach. He was abducted by aliens and they cleverly substituted him with an exact replica. He looks like coach, smells like coach, but doesn't sound like coach. No doubt the advanced beings could not replicate the personality that went into the "old" coach. The fields are quiet now after a fubbed play. The drinking halls are silent. His legacy is only passed by word of mouth. We remain, his loyal fans.


FRANCK [Weebles] WIEBE
Missing in Action

TOH [Agent of Satan] HEAN now known as "The Ipoh Assassin"
The Ipoh Assassin is working in HR down in the tall buildings along Shenton Way during the day, and romancing our 2nd basewoman at nights and on the weekends. In the past few years he has become the most reliable outfielder we have, making left field his personal kingdom. In addition, he has become a dangerous hitter, no more cans of corn, but power hitting combined with pinpoint accurate placement.

GAVIN [Michelangelo] GAY now known as "Flash/Swat"
Gavin can kill you with his pinky! That's all I dare say.

GINO [the Shark]
Who the hell can tell what's going on with the Shark? Last time we heard, he got married and his wife was having contractions. Of course Gino being Gino he was on the ball field when his wife was giving birth.

ANTHONY [Bo Gangles] TAY now known as "Hassie"
The new moniker sprang from his propensity to remove his shirt and run the bases with his locks in the wind at the slow motion replay speed of a baywatch trailer. Hassie has moved from NUS over to SMU, but this has not dampened his desire to play SAS. It was Emily that did it. He is now the father of a wonderful daughter, whom he dotes on. Our best AND only switch-hitting pitcher, Hassie has retired from rightfield to claim his place on the mound. He is our very own Wakefield, pitching knuckleballs that are so unpredictable even our best hitters can't read it. Strangely, when he bats right, he hits to right field, when he bats left, he hits to left field, though he always gets on base (must be all that beach running)

TED [Cannibal] WONG now known as 'The Sandman"
Ted continues to put people to sleep. It is something about his personality, and the gasses he distributes. Working hard at SGH during the week, Ted spends his weekends patrolling the outfield making his patented catches or fills in admirably in the infield when needed. He is still a shortstop at heart, but since the other 2 shortstops can't play any other positions, Ted has graciously conceded that place.

XIAO [Cy Young] YANG
Missing in Action

CHEE HOW
Missing in Action

FABIAN [the Fab]
Fab has returned to Europe to work, but he returns every year or so to show us that Frenchmen can sometimes play baseball
