    This is the closest I've ever lived to a ballpark (less than 3/4 of a mile, I walk) and I know I am SOOOOOOO spoiled.

    My mom used to ask me when I cheered during football games on TV if I did so because I thought the players could hear me. Uhhhh, yeah!

    Looks like the rain will hold off until after the game is over. I think I'm going to take my chances with going tonight.

    Yep, the steak continues!!!!

    Once upon a time, early in the season, The Nation was at the bottom. But now, there are THREE teams in Major League Baseball with a worse record than the Red Sox - Seattle, NY Mets, Houston.

    Ugh! I must be bad luck! I'm 0-2 at Rockies games thus far this season. Got invited to the game tomorrow. Gonna turn this thing around.

    That one team that I love needs to be turnin' things around too!

    Not a good baseball day at all.

    Well we are supposed to be going to the game tonight

    We are under a severe weather threat. Tornado watch until 9 pm.

    I don't want to get stuck at Busch Stadium when those storms come through.

    We are playing the Nationals and I was looking forward to seeing Rick Ankiel again.

    Weather about to hit the stadium. We are staying home. There will be a rain delay and it will be a late night.

    So will watch on TV.

    Well the game was postponed at 9.15 pm.

    They have to get all those people in the stadium and then they buy those $8 beers and $5 hot-dogs during the rain delay. Not to mention the merchandise.

    The make-up will be tomorrow afternoon. they will play a double header.

    Now I have to figure out if i can go to the make-up game.

    Caroline I hate the late west coast games.

    It's so late by the time they're over.

    I'm going to the make-up game on my own. Hubs has to work and DD is in school.

    Double-header today.

    So should I switch seats?

    There's bound to be a lot of empty seats, people that can't make it.

    I would probably have the usher from **** that makes me move back to my original seat

    See if you can trade in the two tickets to get a better seat. Then you won't have to worry about that anal usher.
