Only 29 Days To Go

Less than 30 days from the first pitch of 2008. I’ve decided not to shave until opening night at home against the Firebirds. I figure I won’t even need to cut the beard off; I’ll just let the Birds pluck it clean and use the hair to build nests in the visitor’s dugout. After all, they’ll be at the “Yard” for 3 straight nights and we want them to be comfortable in there, Lord knows they won’t be out on the field! I wonder if the Railroader’s might consider having Fried Chicken in the concession stand one night in honor of the Birds visit. I know I’d enjoy munching on the bones the Fans discard beneath the grandstand. Anyway, just a thought.

Still no word from my agent on any signing offers from the Railroaders front office. Maybe with my beard growing out they’ll re-consider giving me a chance. If not, I’ll still enjoy the opening weekend at home and 5 nights of baseball in a roll. Following the weekend action with the Firebirds, the Oilers are in town for 2 nights. Wonder how slick they’ll try and be!

Oh yea . . .Hi, Mom and Dad!
