This weekend when I went to the U.P., my daughter was there with the 4 grandkiddies. The youngest, Karma 8 months or so, won't let anyone hold her except Mon & Dad. So, I walked into their hotel room and low and behold, she let me hold her. My daughter was shocked, and I don't know who had the biggest smile, me or Karma. Then, later, Teresa got to hold her as well, but none of my 3 sisters or my brother could hold her without the big scream. Wierd. Pictures to follow.

The shortstop on my younger son's baseball team got drafted yesterday by the Phillies in the 23rd round. He is a great, great kid and was a 1st Team All-American. That made my day.It's so flat you can watch your dog run away for three days.Comment

Good dealI feel like I am watching the destruction of our democracy while my neighbors and friends cheer it onComment

That's actually really good for baseball. They have 50 rounds. So it's basically like getting drafted in the 3rd round in football.It's so flat you can watch your dog run away for three days.Comment

Another kid I know, Darin Ruf from Creighton University, went in the 20th round, also to the Phillies.It's so flat you can watch your dog run away for three days.Comment

Why is it that a sport that only puts 9 players on the field has 50 rounds, but the sport that has 24 regular starters, not to mention 2nd stringers that play regularly only have 7? Strange!!Your right! Matty Boy will save us all!!

A pitcher that played with my younger son just got picked in the 37th round. Gonna be a Mariner. This is so cool. There's been about 5 kids I know personally who have been drafted so far.
And we're only in the 38th round!

There's also the independent (pro) and semi-pro leagues. The NFL has no "grooming" leagues except for college. Therefore, the MLB draft has lots and lots more rounds.It's so flat you can watch your dog run away for three days.Comment
