If I had to choose a favorite NL team, it would be the Cubbies. They're easy to like and it should be required for citizenship of this country that everyone - including natural born citizens - to attend a game at Wrigley.

My NL team is the Dodgers. I attended many games at Chavez Ravine growing up eating world famous Dodger Dogs. But the NL never appealed to me really except when the Dodgers were playing the Giants. I have been a fan of the Oakland A's forever. 1988 was a conflicted year for me.

Welcome aboard Solon.

I can't wait for Opening Day. It's better than Christmas.

A Ute and a baseball fan?

Mike, thanks a million times over for providing us with this forum.

BTW, I visited a friend at Penn State once. It seemed like a nice campus.

Welcome to the board. Your research focus on ancient Greeks and athletics sounds very interesting. I will note that many of us BYU fans don't really like to think that athletics existed prior to 1972.

Wow. You're the first I've ever encountered who would admit this. My respect for you just went up .05%.

Actually, I egotistically like to think this board was created by Mike for my personal entertainment.

Some of us actually like sport apart from BYU, even though BYU athletics, when they excell also interest us.

Join us in the cycling section as some of us are accomplished cyclists, a la RC Viking, creekster, Barbara Gordon, bluegoose and Steel Blue, and others like Paddy and myself are aspiring wannabees. We even run some. Big Piney also rides. It is very addicting.
