Friday The Skiffle Minstrels
Category: music
So On Friday I went to The Sportmen's Tavern for the first time to see The Skiffle Minstrels It was a great time I didn't stay for all it turned out I got to see a full set though.... I have to say even though I don't watch Baseball it was a hard not to watch bits and pieces of it on that HD TV it sure looked good.... With the light and where I was shooting the pictures aren't the best......

First Day of Baseball
Category: sports
So from what I understand today is the Baseball's opening day... Now that doesn't mean your team has a home opener today since there can only be one home team.... It seems silly to have the season start so early when it can and does still snow but of course if you push the season back any that is a risk you take the other way ..... Think it has snowed during the playoffs before but not sure about that....

The Bisons open up a week from today and even though it is a 3pm game it is a good reason to take the day off... Hope there is no snow or rain or high winds and that I can enjoy the game and a Burger or maybe some Mexican (there was a moe's there not sure if there still is) not really a hot dog guy......

For those with Passports go to Toronto to see a game it is fun and if you want to see it from a different perspective get those 9 dollar seats it is almost like a video game where you are looking down at everything it is really trippy ...... You can go there for more then just a game as well..... Baseball is so much better in person and Yes $20-25 to park but if you are going to do other stuff not a big deal...... There is a way to get a ticket to watch from the Hard Rock Cafe windows but not sure how that works.... I also have seen a game in Cleveland.... From seeing games here it makes it seem like Dunn Tire Park was built backwards like sitting in the seats you should be able to see downtown .........

As I said before I wish I could get into Baseball on TV. I admit I'm a Costas fan and think he does a great job.... But even so I just can't get into baseball on TV I have watched it but.... I think part of it is the delays.... See in a ballpark there is a pitch you look to see if you judged it correctly when people are on bases you have that to watch...... But on TV all of that is done for you and once you learn how to read that graphic you know the count and what bases people are on aren't so the delay's seem slow..... I also think that some how the action of stealing a base is lost.......

Back to the long season.... I never played Baseball in a league so maybe I don't get this nor did a play in school.... But to me baseball is a summer thing not a spring fall and almost winter thing..... I think some sports are to long and there is to much of them.... Same is true with hockey at Club Daiblo this was mentioned slightly that hockey should be over when the ice is soft like in June.... I think that is cause the playoffs take so long since they play every other day........

Baseball does for some reason make great Movies..... Basketball, Major League, Field Of Dreams (not really about baseball at all) and others I have never seen........

How Did Bob Uker become Mr Baseball?
Why Isn't Pete Rose in the Hall Of Fame?
How come did "The Chicken" Lose San Diago ..... and be more Famous then the Team?

I don't know what it is that even with drug abuse there is still something pure about baseball.... Maybe that it isn't a contact sport? Maybe it is the fresh cut grass and that smell? maybe it is how the field is cut so nice and the lines are perfect and you can watch the field come together........

I admit I have no means into Canada and I won't go to that many bisions games but Baseball is great and even as it snows it some how marks a new beginning ..........

Just have to add that Last night at Sportmen's Tavern I really Enjoyed watching some baseball it was really the Skiffle Minstrils (how ever it is spelled) but it looked great I really can't explain how good it looked .... You could see the fans faces then other times you couldn't but they where blurry based on how the camera was focussed..............

Currently it looks like it is working..... I think what happened last time is I went to Sean Madden's band page and something crashed there so it messed up here.... Brook D'angelo is the lady who is on stage again not sure I know how to tell you what her music is like it is kinda like cover songs but she spices them up? Below is the freakness if you like or want to see Sean Madden's art you can look him up on face book or do the google thing or go to Clownvomit.org
