    I do not follow any ball sports.... Too many other things of interest. No time to lay around and watch other people get exercise. ;) Cheers, RickO

    More importantly the Cubs are in first place! :D

    May not be able to say that again all season. :'(

    Just because I'm old doesn't mean I don't love to look at a pretty bust.

    Yes, they are. Along with the Reds and my Redbirds!
    Long season and grateful that there is even one.

    Went to a Cards game back in ‘11 and my poor wife was pregnant (but we didn’t know it yet) and we got standing room tickets. She was miserable and we couldn’t figure out why…but Pujols hit two dingers and we still had a great time.
    I don’t really have a favorite team, but I get to catch a Dbacks game about once a year due to proximity and like it when they’re good.
    Everyone’s a contender today!

    Nice coin shaun.
    What a great year for my Redbirds, in 2011! I'm sure you continue to tell your child, I'm guessing 11 now?, about you and mom when he/she was giving your wife fits!

    I live in Colorado. Home to the only “professional “ baseball team that has treated their fans like dirt.
    I don’t know of another teams who after 27 years has done nothing but groom great players for other teams.
    I saw Eric Young hit the homer at the first game in 95. Mile High. And for 27 years I’ve watched them groom players and then send them away.
    The Rockies are a joke and a slap in the face of baseball fans state wide. 😉🦫🙀

    So sorry James,
    I know, one of your players that are good, came over to my team,
    Nolan Arrenado! Got to thank you for that, bud. Lol
    Just pick another team to your liking. :D

    Better than watching baseball I came across a 2020 movie called Greenland. Watch very few movies but I liked this one. Plenty of action to keep me interested an if you feel strongly about your family it really pulls on your heartstrings. I have to admit I got very emotional quite a few times.

    P.S. The Phillies are undefeated so far this season. B)

    @joeykoins her 12th birthday is Monday and we tell that story quite often(I still wear the Pujols shirt I got at the game).
    I had just graduated with my MBA and it was our 5th anniversary. We had just decided not to buy a bunny because it would be too much responsibility and tie us down. In the spring I said “wouldn’t that be nuts if we were both finally out of school and accidentally had a kid right away?” We tell her she was a stowaway. She got to go on a cruise to Cabo, a zip lining tour, a Padres game, the National Scleroderma Foundation Conference, the Arch, that Cardinals game…and we found out about her the week we got back.
    I not only tell her about taking the trip with her, sometimes I tell her she could/should have been a bunny.

    If I remember correctly, you live in the Chicago area. No wonder you're
    a Red Bird fan. I've been one since 1963. Live in the mid South and KMOX
    radio was the only radio station I could pick up with my $5 transistor radio
    that MLB team broadcast. Those were good evenings!

    I once was a Cubs fan!
    However, 1984 done me in when they blew it once again against San Diego.
    On YouTube, as well as, on National TV, has me pouring out a whole bottle of champagne in the street in front of Cubby Bear Lounge! That's when I became a Cardinals fan. 1 year later! I'll try to post the video of me 38 years ago.
    I'm a little younger and thinner!
    :D
