I can't wait for the baseball season to start. The Yankees are looking pretty good and I can't wait for them to go for their 28th World Championship!
Really? Why are the Yankees your favorite team? Who is your favorite player on the team?
I'm an old school guy and grew up in New York in the 70s and the only clear channel I got from my rabbit ears TV antenna was the channel WPIX which show the Yankees games. My favorite Yankee when I was growing up was Catfish Hunter.
Lol. Old school you are. Catfish is not even alive anymore; died 1999; you don't have any current favorites?
My most favorite recent Yankees are Derek Jeter and Mariano Rivera. I respect those that stayed with the same team for their entire careers. On the current crop I like Brett Gardner even though I think he's been getting the short stick from management. He's a bulldog, got speed and doesn't make waves.
That's interesting; is Brett Gardner better than Domingo German
Well, unfortunately you don't get to pick your team. Personally I thought the team should have dropped Domingo after he was suspended but in sports talent talks a lot more. If Brett was involved in the same situation I've no doubt he would be gone.
That's true; their schedule for this year looks interesting. I bet tickets will be expensive; are you planning to go watch any of their games? Got tickets already?
I haven't decided yet. I was a season ticket holder when I didn't have children. Now that I do, I have to save up my money. I think I'll see how it goes this year and try to take in at least 5 or 6 games.
That's very wise; go for those you can; don't stretch yourself; prioritizing is very important; i know people go way overboard just to watch their favorite team play.
I used to be like that but once you start your family you gotta grow up and start thinking about other people ahead of yourself. The good thing is the kids are all in their teens so if I can scrounge up enough money maybe I can make it a family outing.
