For some reason I thought of you....

Thank you, Santiago. Is that a wine carrier that the batter is standing in? I want one!!!

Pitchers and catchers have reported. Wont be long now. I will be in AZ for a week in late March. Looks like I will see the Giants and the A's, as well as Dem Bums and the Angels, too. Also going to see this new version of the Cubs that Theo has put together.

Then, I return home to Sonora in time to see the D-Backs take on the Rockies at the new Estadio Sonora in Hermosillo. It's one of the final ST games of the season.

There is a chance I will be up in CA this August, as part of our summer escape from the humidity of the Sonoran Coast. Thinking about finally seeing a game in ATT park. I've already been to the Mausoleum. I didnt think it was that bad...........but, then, the toilets were working that day.

My division picks at this point.

Boston, LAA, Detroit, LAD, STL, and WASH. Only one team different than last year's winners.

WC/AL-Seattle, KC
WE/NL-Cubbies, Giants

I bought a considerable amount of the last of the Wine Exchange's stock. They did have some good final sales. Still, I think it was the highest per/bottle average of any wine purchase I have ever made. Not ridiculous like Bordeaux or Burgundies, but a solid 30.00/bottle average. I believe they are closed and transferring wine to the new location, but dont know that for sure.

You can order these in most teams logos from here: http://www.everythingbaseballcatalog.com/babrbawiboho.html.
Unfortunately, they don't come in Padres for you SD fans. Hummmmm.... LAA, yes.

The box below I did not open so I don't know what it is. The batter will sit on any flat surface.

Oh, OK. I thought the batter was attached to the box. That would be pretty cumbersome, actually.

PFFFFT Seeing what Staples Center has done for or too Downtown L.A. I say they stay where they're at. We've been just fine for twenty some years without the N.F.L. And furthermore if the state has $1.7 in extra cash reserves, why not use that for education, i.e. maybe give teachers incentives to teach in our public schools. I know I'll pee- off a few Nomads so in advance I say, build a bridge and get over it. Have a nice day, Saludos

I dont think the Chargers will move to LA.. They are just using the move as a bargaining chip to get a stadium built in SD.... Same with the Raiders, they want a new stadium in the Bay area.

I hope Kronke moves the Rams to LA right away. Then the billionaire owner of the Chargers wont have the leverage and can pay for his own damn stadium. :P

11 to 1 odds for the Giants to win their 4 world series in 6 years. Seems like a good bet. I put down $20 in Reno this past weekend.
