Everyone should watch.....

...the Yankees play this sunday. it's the last game they'll play in the stadium.

you know what's funny? i'm not even a baseball fan. i used to go to games at the stadium all the time with my family when i was a kid, and i played in high school, but i never could just sit and watch a game on TV. i'd either fall asleep, or find something more exciting to watch, like masterpiece theatre, or infomercials. i find baseball sickeningly boring, but i find myself rather mournful about the stadium being torn down. i have so many memories of being there: my uncle catching a pop fly in his bare hand, my mom knocking some lady down the steps for throwing her beer cup at me, the old dominican man with the cowbell, my dad putting me on his shoulders to get a better view of things. i didn't like baseball, but some of my best memories were in that stadium.

tomorrow, i'm going to buy a six pack of beer, my yearly limit. i'll drink one or two, raise a glass to the House that Ruth Built, then call my parents, and talk for awhile.

I had a lot of good times in Yankee stadium over the yrs. A lot of beers, dogs, and good times yelling at the Boston fans, both in the stadium and out on the street.
