Teehee.  Those were the good ol days.  I think it's great that the minor
league blew away the major league.  I usually fight for the underdog.  Mind
you I said usually.  (Like you don't see me fighting for sIcky or Camel do
you?)  Where have all the players gone....long time passing....where have
all the players gone...long time ago...(Don't remember the name of the song
but, it just started going through my head)

Ahhem.  How could you?  Well, I can't complain because I'd have to say that
they're both probably even in my book.  Hey one good thing about baseball is
the season tickets are cheaper to obtain.  When I lived in Orange County (CA)
we had season tickets to the Angels.  Of course, that was the two years that
they had crummy players.  Remember what they called the jack rabbits?  Terrible
on names but, one of them was Mickey Rivers.  They placed the four of them
1-4 on the batting roster and then expected them to score right off the bat.
Of course, it didn't work all that well.  However, I did see Mickey Rivers
steal home base once.  That was exciting.

A wishing she could get season tickets to Good football and baseball teams
