yousmile: i see how you feel about living in the same city as players that made the majors--where i grew up players rented homes where i lived including Mickey mantle and he once visited my grammar school but i was only in kindergarten but he was my first baseball hero growing up--today my mother still lives there and many players still rent homes in that town...

chucky: great story and i played several sports but baseball is one that i always loved because at times it's 9 guys against a guy at bat--on offense--I pitched and played 1st base when i didn't pitch and hit well but with today's ML rules of the DH i may have wished to play in the NL for sure...

joesmom: you must have had a great hubby--and sometimes things are not fair but you sounded like a great wife for sure as it should be about the kids and you had it covered-I did see the all star game and the new park is just gorgious but right hand hitters have it tough hitting HRs there---Giants have a long road ahead of them but have great pitching and need some hitters

Yeah, I know they have a long way to go, but I like to watch no matter which way it goes.
And who knows, it could happen..........

what if they were to make it to the big time or set the example one day for their children and seeing them saying thanks, Mom and Dad too--priceless

I forgot to mention baseball cards---Did anyone buy/collect them like i did sometimes flipping them against a wall etc or maybe you did collect them and accidently they were lost or thrown out too by good old mom...Did anyone know at our young ages that one day some collectable cards would be worth as much or more then some luxuary cars do???
Do your kids or grandkids collect them today for hobbies??? Share the meemories--
*** again winter is coming to an end/ thank goodness and baseball is a sport everyone loves or loves to talk about, please do here***
Thanks, but if you have not posted here as of yet, please read my initial post to my thread and have some fun here--
