The Wright Stuff

Frank Lloyd Wright

Kicking your balls back to your ancestors

Long ago, at the dawn of man there once existed a peoples called Civilio, the first instance of true human civilization occurring long before civilizations came and went (reason the word civilization came to mean what it does, in honor of the Civilio), but then had mysteriously disappearing with no apparent clues as to why, as if they were picked up and taken from the Earth. It would be thousands of years before a civilization, agriculture, animal domestication and writing would come again to the planet.

During this time the game of kickball was invented, balls were made of small entwined branches that were smoothed over to give the ball bounce. It was an honor to play the game and players were treated as celebrities (earth's earliest celebrities in fact). At one point a team known as The Frank Lloyd Wright Stuff (having been trained so well by a man named Frank Lloyd Wright) came to be the most dominant team and held on to the #1 rank for years, they would destroy teams that dared played against them. So much in fact that other teams conspired against them and during the 10th year of their domination the team members were all kidnapped and taken to the far north were they were imprisoned in a glacier!

Recently their bodies were discovered and found to still be alive! Having been in a kept in a natural cryogenic sleep. Now that they have been thawed and reunited they are out for revenge! Having discovered that not only is the game they love so much still being played but that the teams in the Thursday night Churchill Park league are all descendants of the teams that had imprisoned them thousands of years ago!

Well thousands of years of sleeping cause them to lose their winning edge? We will find out soon and the world will once again know of The Frank Lloyd Wright Stuff.
