Take Me Out To The Ballgame!

It's as old as

Apple Pie.

It was once the most popular sport in the

United States.

It's

Popcorn,

Peanuts,

and

Cracker Jack.

It is

Americana.

The Major League

All Star Game

is held after the

July 4th Holiday.

This year it will be in beautiful

San Diego.

I know it is beautiful because I live close by

and have been there many times.

I am going to a

Major League Baseball Game

tonight.

The home team,

The Milwaukee Brewers,

will be hosting

The Los Angeles Dodgers.

The Brewers may no longer be the

Bambi Bombers

of old,

who under manager

George Bamberger,

had such great players that included

Robin Yount,

Paul Molitor,

Cecil Cooper,

Gorman Thomas

and

Ben Oglivie.

That team took the

Brewers

to the

World Series

in 1982.

They took the

St. Louis Cardinals

to a seventh game in that series before finally losing in the closing innings.

I don't know if I am going to buy

Popcorn,

Peanuts,

or

Cracker Jack.

I do know that I'll buy at least one beer.

What the Hell.

Milwaukee

is famous for it's

Breweries,

and I am famous for drinking their wares.

No I am not drinking

and driving,

Mom!

Here to sing

"Take Me Out To The Ballgame"

is none other than

William Hung.

Who was so bad on

American Idol

in

Season Three,

that the crowd cheered him on

and he became a cult hero of sorts.

We all know him

and love him,

William Hung!

This is,

I Do Not Really Drink Any Longer,

So Let Us See If I Have More Than One Beer,

Jim Hauenstein,

And,

“It took me seventeen years to get three thousand hits in baseball. It took one afternoon on the golf course.”
- Hank Aaron -

That is my story and I am sticking to it!
