CEO: Thanks everyone for being here! We can all agree this new sport we’ve created is really coming along well.
President: We called it baseball, sir.
Secretary: Why not batball? There’s a bat, right? So it should be called batball.
Vice President: We’ve been through this Matt. Let’s stick with baseball for now.
CEO: Moving on, we need to nail down the uniform, pronto.
Secretary: How about big shirts with “batball” written on them?
CEO: I had an idea, and I think it’s a winner – what do you think about… WHITE PANTS?!
President: Amazing, sir.
Secretary: Incredible.
Vice President: Uhhh… well…
CEO: Do you love it, Donna?
Vice President: This sport is played outside.
CEO: It is?
Vice President: There’s often mud outside, sir. And clay.
CEO: Fabulous.
Vice President: The players slide into base, sir. Through the mud.
CEO: That’s why this game is going to be huge, I tell you. HUGE.
President: I have to agree with you, sir.
Vice President: So, a question.
CEO: What’s up, Donna? You know I’m always listening.
Vice President: Has anyone else in this room ever done laundry? I mean, ever?
CEO: I can’t quite see where you’re going with this, Donna.
Secretary: I’ve done laundry.
Vice President: Really.
Secretary: Yeah. I mean, I’ve seen it done, my mom used to… there was a manual, I believe, and I’m a quick learner…
CEO: Just imagine it! A field –
Vice President: Diamond, sir.
CEO: – a diamond field, outside, lined with batball players in white pants! They’re going to pop! Pristine white! Shining, brilliant white!
Vice President: I don’t think it’s going to be like that, sir.
President: It’s visionary, sir.
Vice President: It’s breathtakingly idiotic. Generations of baseball parents will curse us.
CEO: I’m going to need everyone to be a team player on this.
Vice President: Sir, there is no possible way that the players can –
Secretary: You’re being very negative, Donna. Is everything OK at home?
Vice President: I’m going to remove your spleen with paper scissors, Matt.
CEO: So, white pants! We’re all agreed?
Vice President: No.
CEO: Go team! White pants team!
Vice President: I hope you all die.
President: Inspirational, sir. This idea is bigger than baseball, let me have a chat to the cricket people.
