An interesting email from a friend this morning

As I read this email, it really made me think. For him 03 playoffs were so much fun, 04 obviously just the opposite as he grew up in NYC and has been a Yankee fan all his life.

How we live in the present, from moment to moment, though we plan for the future, baseball is one game at a time. Tonight the Cubs have the pleasure and the right to play a game of baseball, and the fans can enjoy watching or listening to the 2008 version of the cubbies. To win the World Series will take winning 11 games by some team this year. Each game is played one at a time. The 2004 Bosox were down 3 to 0 to Yanks, and were losing game 4, yet won 8 in a row to win it all. So tonight is a big game just like any other playoff game. A must win just makes the stakes that much higher. With backs to the wall they must go all out, hold nothing back, and play it one pitch at a time. I know there will be a lot of Cubs fans at Dodger Stadium tonight. I went to a few Cubs games there over the years.

I had posted earlier in the week to see if there was any interest in a BCB together. There did seem to be some interest in doing an August game.

A friend of mine and me are planning on going to Old Chicago Sunday. I will be in the Geo jersey and pink baseball cap.

Where: Old Chicago 7202 Mineral Point Rd (across from West Towne Mall)

When: August 17th noon game time

Hope to see some fellow BCB'ers there

Madison BCB get together

I was wondering if there would be interesting in a Madison BCB get together? Summers winding down, people are moving back and it's not quite college football season yet. So this might be a good time of year.

How does this Sunday the 17th sound? It's a noon game. As for where, there is a ton of different bars obviously or we could go to Old Chicago or Uno's eat and watch the game.

Let me know
