Grub Doctors Write a New Chapter

Back in 1995 a random group of guys gathered together to form a softball team for the intramural league at Lipscomb University. They were called the Grub Doctors. Over the next 4 years, the Grub Doctors participated in every intramural sporting even that was possible. They played with pride and passion even though their skills and ability were nothing compared to their luck. They played each game with the battle cry, "Let's have more fun than they do!" They had fun, and so did the crowd. The opposing teams hated them because their silly antics were annoying and yet they still found a way to win more often than expected. They were a fun a group, having never won a championship of any kind, until...April 24, 2007,

I was proud to be a part of Grub Doctor history. Along with "Paxwell" & "Nutt", the three of us have all ended up working for Dave Ramsey & The Lampo Group, Inc. When we heard about the first annual 3-on-3 basketball tournament, we pulled out the old green jersey's from our college days, sucked in our guts, and hit the asphalt with intensity. In front of a sell out crowd in the back parking lot of the office, we managed to win our first championship ever! We became the first Lampo 3-on-3 basketball champions. I am proud to be a Grub Doctor today.

Side Note: As a part of the double elimination tournament, we lost one game which caused us to play more games than any other team. Was it luck that we won? Maybe. We finished the tourney with a record of 7-1.

    Kudos to the Champs!

    The Grub Doctors proved they were the best team out there by handing defeat after defeat to a majority of teams in the tournament.

    They may have looked a little winded, but they didn't let old age slow them down. (well accept for Nathan because he broke his ankle)

    Who says you can't relive the college days? And who says 12 years of perseverance doesn't pay off?

    Congrats to the Grub Doctors!
