On Saturday, April 4th, 2009, at approximately 10:30 am, Gabe Flowers stormed field 14 at the East Brainerd Youth Association park in Chattanooga to take on the competition in his debut T-Ball Game. The Oriels, dressed in orange, had a great game. Mr. Flowers, wearing the #4 jersey, refused to move or even take his eyes off his shoes while on defense, but did manage a few hits off the tee. The fact that he refused to run to first base on either occasion, was overshadowed by the inherent cuteness of it all.

Perhaps the biggest contribution young Mr. Flowers made to the Oriel effort, was to intimidate the opposing force with his prominent and ever-present protruding bottom lip. This silent protest, lost on many in the stands, was simply further evidence that he has inherited an immaculate stubbornness from an unknown source. A picture can tell a thousand words, these pictures say but a few, they are however; profound.
