Opening Day


Its finally here! I have waited for months to see this day come back! The baseball season has officially begun. With a 10-4 win over the Indians last night the WhiteSox have started thier Title defence. Today Barry Bonds begins what will be a historic season, only 11 more HomeRuns to pass the great Babe Ruth. I might actually get to see the record breaker when we go see the Giants play in Oakland. That isn't until may, but you never know how long it may or may not take him.

Jimmy Rolins acutally has a shot of beating the Great Joe Dimagio for consecutive games with a hit (56). This could be one of the best seasons ever to watch the greatest game ever invented. I hope that you will take some time and watch a few games, attend some. There truly is little in life like watching a baseball game from anywhere in any park, with a Hot Dog in one hand and sunflower seeds in the other. Whatever your baseball tradition may be, continue them, if you don't have one, start some. This is a great place to take your family. Competition at its best. People playing a game that we love to watch. Something hard, something we envy and strive to be better at.

We should all strive to work that hard in our jobs, working day in and day out to try to be the best that we can be. Not everyone in the world is a Barry Bonds, but we all have a role to play, so play the role the best that you can. Do your best to make sure that you won't be replaced. Make people smile everyday. It doesn't matter what team you root for, just participate. and have some fun!

I look forward to seeing you at a game, or next to me on my couch as we watch the Giants pound whom'ever they may be playing that day.

GO GIANTS!!!!!
