Anybody but the Yankees

Man, I want to root for the Cubbies- that would sure be historic. But I'd also love to see my Arizona Diamondbacks go up against Boston. Picture it, Randy Johnson against former teammate Kurt Schilling in the last game of the World Series. That could be almost as historic, right?

But if the Cubs beat us, then of course, I'll become a Cubs fan, no matter who they play- but especially if they play the stupid Yankees.

Hey Sports Fans! Who LOVES Ya!

For Father's Day, my sister-in-law arranged for my brother, our father, my oldest daughter Grace, and I to an Arizona Diamondback's game. As you can see, Chase Field in Phoenix is a BIG place. This game, there were 49, 826 fans- a D'Back's record. (of course the Yankees and Bo Sox routinely have over 50K for lame games against no-name teams in the middle of the week.
Here's two of my favorite people in the world, my daughter Grace, and her Grandpa Mallory. Saturday was "Free Randy Johnson bobble-head day" so she got a statuette of the greatest left handed pitcher of all time, "The Big Unit."
Yeah, were were pretty much in the nose-bleed section, but it didn't matter. Yeah, Boston beat us 4-3 in 10 innings, but that didn't matter either- it was still tons of fun.
