Hey!
Thanks for joining the club! I myself, am a hardcore Dodger fan..
but the Cubs have got enough former Dodger favorites of mine that I
think it's ok to keep rooting for them... just not when they play
the Dodgers! =O)
I started this club, I think in 1999. It has never really taken
off, but that's ok. When I was thinking about deleting it, I just
couldn't do it. Hah! It would be like turning my back on rooting
for Holly. I also have a Grudzielanek club too.
http://groups.yahoo.com/group/markgrudzielanekfanclub I also think
I put it in the links section of this group.
I hope Holly is doing alright! I remember a few years ago when he
was in Colorado, he foweld a ball off of his shin and was out for
about a year and almost had to come close to amputating his leg. I
hope that doesn't happen this time!
It has always irritated me that so many managers don't play Holly as
much as they should. When he was playing in LA I would listen to
the starting lineup and just pray that he would be in there... a few
times he was. Once when the Dodgers were playing Anaheim in Ana. he
started in CF and I was in the LF seats about 2 rows from the field
and he was running over to get a ball the Sheffield wasn't getting,
and he pulled his hamstring right infront of me, it was horrible to
see, 'cause I just knew he would go on the DL.
I was at the Dodger game on Friday night, and they showed
Grudzielanek's homer! I was so happy to see it! Also, the fans
around me were cheering about the homer, and shouting out Grud's
name... good to know he still has fans out here.
Thanks again for joining!
