Baseball 2013
It's opening day, so .....
PLAY BALL !!!!

"The one constant through all the years, Ray, has been baseball. America has rolled by like an army of steamrollers. It has been erased like a blackboard, rebuilt and erased again. But baseball has marked the time. This field, this game: it's a part of our past, Ray. It reminds us of all that once was good and that could be again. Oh...people will come Ray. People will most definitely come.” -"Field of Dreams"

Oh, and the Cubbies beat the Pirates 3-1
..... and no, that is NOT an April Fool's joke.

There's NOTHING like opening day. It's that ONE day of the year when the Cubs still have a fighting chance, lol.
Go Cards!

last night I dreamt Big Teddy stopped by for a visit.
He looked great, I asked what he liked best about heaven and he said, "In Heaven the Cubbies have won the World Series eleven times and they're looking pretty good for this year, too."
"Any down side?" I asked.
"Well, actually, there is one downside. Harry Carry won't stop bitching about them wearing Cardinal uniforms."

That's a great baseball joke. You are classically trained, no question.
