Yeah yeah.  Me too.  The Rockies, back in the day when they were new... had lots of good players... Dante Bichette, Andres Gallaraga, Larry Walker, Walt Weiss... but all they've got left is Todd Helton.  That's so sad.  Anyway... mostly players.

				I, as most of us know, like the  .  My current favorite players are Johnny Damon and David Ortiz.  Past favorites... Ted Williams, of course, Yaz, and Tony C.  I looooooove Fenway Park.  It's small, but has so much history,    I'm going to pay attention to the Nationals this year, too.  (Debut year and all)
 
And the American League so kicks ass.

What's that? Brewers on least favorite? Psh.
 
 
 
 
 
You can probably tell...  
 
 
If you haven't figured it out, and my avatar does actually apply, I like the Brewers.

				well he just gave me some tips on how to keep my arm in shape. the guy i got the most pitching advice from was Brian Shause of the texas rangers, apparently he comes to peoria for the winter and some ppl set me up with him, he helped me out A LOT. showed me some new pitches to throw and helped me with my arm angle to get more movement, it was really cool and really fun

				I've got a curve, and a fastball, which ain't too fast,    Threw something the other day, it was like a knuckle ball, but I wasn't holding it that way, was incredibly cool, though.
 
 
 
As creator of this topic, and aaaadmin,  , it won't be off topic to just talk about baseball in here, thank you.
