Happy Mother's Day!

Happy Mother's Day to all the mom's out there. Without you nobody would be here would they?
While I think Mother's Day is a great holiday, I'm not a fan of it today. Why? Because our old guy's baseball league doesn't play today. We don't play on Easter or Mother's Day.
The rough thing about that today is that it's a beautiful day here in the Mile High City and I'm in the mood to play baseball. We've had cold and crappy weather so far this spring and this is the first really nice Sunday of the year. Oh well, I guess we have to keep the moms all happy.
We do play on Father's Day however and that is when we usually draw our biggest crowd. We usually get into double digits on Father's Day.
Two years ago on Father's Day, I noticed we had a pretty good gathering to watch our game. I mentioned it to our catcher, Jim O'Connor and he said, "We usually get our biggest crowd on Father's Day. That's the one day of the season when the family feels obligated to go watch dad play."
By the way, if you have any interest at all in my old guys team, the Orioles, feel free to go to my website and click on the Orioles Baseball page. The website is www.turfsports.net then scroll towards the bottom.
Again, Happy Mother's Day!
And PLAY BALL!...next week. Ugh.
