Welcome springtime and another baseball season !!
Winter is depressing isn't it ? - February is the worst month of the year -
it's the shortest, but seems like the longest. The only saving grace is the fact
that spring training opens in February and baseball season is just around the
corner !
Opening Day should be a blast for those who have tickets, unfortunately, I
will not be there.
Since all you Senators/Nats fans are now back on the site and leaving
messages, let me ask a quick question;
Does anyone out there have a 1969 Topps #48 signed by Brant Alyea that
they are willing to part with ? How about a 1971 #93 signed Norm McRae, #497
signed Horacio Pina, #535 signed Curt Flood, or a #706 signed Joe Foy ? These
are cards I need to complete the set of Topps cards signed by the players.
This is to Arch Webster ---------- Hi Arch ! How did you like the signed
cards I sent to you ??

I tried to get opening day tickets for the Nationals yesterday, as I
did get through on the computer.

I made the mistake of hitting best available as they where seats in the last
section lower deck curved toward homeplate for 63 each. I did not mind paying
the 63, but I had a bad experience with seats like that at RFK, not being high
enough to see well.

So, I hit the back bar to get seats in the upper deck. Big mistake. Got knock
out.

I could not get back in.

Tickets sold out.

But today, I read in the paper that they only had 4000 tickets available as they
have only 18,000 season tickets sold. I am not sure if that was 18,000 ticket
holders or seats. But I am sure they do not have 37,000 seats sold as season. I
also learn that season ticket holder got a chance to buy more tickets, which
discuss me, as they are might be sold on ebay.

I should of taken 4, the max, for the section I had, and sold them for the big
bucks on ebay. Just kidding.

Oh well, allot of people will be going who are not really baseball fans. But
what can you do.

I still will be going to the new park this year about 13 times, to be filled in
with trips to the local minors and a trip to Pittsburgh, Altoona, State College
and York, PA.

Did a copy of "They Stolen Our Team" really go for $200 on ebay? I have one of
those books!
