Baseball is over...the 8U team got rained out today and we are d-o-n-e. Done. 'Cause in my town, football begins. Oh, well.
Watching some baseball on the HD this afternoon - Mets got a late start after a rain delay with the D'Backs and the Yanks are in Chi-town for a series with the Sox. I'm travelling to Chicagoland this week for work, so I am going to try to hit U.S. Cellular on Wednesday night. Funny - I've been to the Windy City at least 20 times, and the Cubs are never in town when I am. Weird.
Watched the HBO documentary 'Assault in the Ring' last night, a riveting look at the 1983 fight and the aftermath between Luis Resto and Billy Collins, Jr. My Pops was/is a big fight fan, so I remember this pretty well, but didn't know the whole story. I remember hearing bits and pieces over the years. And even though Collins dies 9 months later in a car crash (perhaps of his own doing), somebody literally got away with attempted murder here.
