October Baseball...As Good As It Gets...!!!

Please don't read this unless you're addicted to baseball...!!! I mean it's not considered Americas favorite pastime for nothing...!!!

And so, let the games begin...

Of course, I'm hoping my Phillies repeat as World Champions, but in this age of 'buying' a class contender, one has to wonder if the sport hasn't gone out of the game in favor of the business aspect...

Go into any major league city and you'll notice that the dollar wins the day...I mean these 'palaces' costing close to a billion dollars to erect aren't being built as 'tax deductions'...

The action goes on between innings..as millions are spent on food, parking, concessions, wearables, souvenirs, etc...

It just so happens that there is a baseball game going on in the midst of all this hyper spending...!!!

Nevertheless, it's October baseball, so let the games begin...!!!

I'll be watching on my new Hi Def...!!!

Go Phillies!!!! My brother -in-law is the head groundskeeper for the Phillies, the rings from last year are absolutely gorgeous and amazing. Today starts the playoffs!!!! Time to DVR the afternoon games. They are on in the afternoon here.... GO PHILLIES

Kim,

Oops!!! Don't have Tivo or DVR on my Hi Def...!!! Thanks, Fran

P.S. Tell your Brother in law about Fran The TitleMan...!! LOL

Well, maybe I'll become a Phillies fan as my Tigers didn't pull it out in the 12th Inning last night :( That was a great game though.

Daniel,

I missed that game, but I heard It was an outstanding game...!!! Thanks, Fran

Fran - Oh heck, I'm a Pirate fan but am rooting for the Phillies. Several folks in our office are really big fans. The guy across from me brought a radio, so I guess we will be listening to the game today.

Ahhhh Baseball.....

Blessings my friend,

Fran,

We just switched to Direct TV and HD for football. My first date with my husband 30 years ago was a Raider's game. He's still a fan, although I'm not sure why. The Raiders can use all the loyal fans they can get right now. Best to you and your Phillies.

Jason: Ah, sweet baseball...!!!

Alice: Great little video...!!!

Fran: Wow...What a cheap date...!!! LOL

Thanks, Fran

You are right about how much money is spent in the very short time that is know as the playoffs, but Philly again? Come on! GO CARDINALS!

At least you are tied 1-1 in your series, The Cardinals lost last night, so their season is now over. (Sorry yours got snowed out)

HEY FRAN: Long time... I hope your Phils do it again... I haven't watched much baseball since the last strike... sorry, they lost me. How are my Bucs doing? Have they had a winning season since forever? Now, contact your cable/satelite company and get yourself a DVR! No more commercials... the game will last about 1 1/2 hours... there is nothing like them. Blessings Bob

Great video from Alice... It made me think of this one...
