Baseball Appetites Never Go Away


Baseball is in our blood. It's in our DNA and never goes away. It's better than a lot of other things we have in our blood.

Even though I understand the conflict between our health and the economy, I think it is unfair to deprive baseball fans of the opportunity to watch a game. It's like trying to mix apples with oranges.

Has anybody ever thought of a baseball game without an audience? It's not very exciting but it's better than no baseball at all. If the players would just follow the rules laid out by the CDC, we all would be blessed with watching more baseball, and wouldn't that be nice?

Perhaps pride is blocking the way to opening the baseball season. Maybe it's a budget thing and overspending in areas we can't afford. How many times have we heard that one before? Greed can ruin the day. 

Yes the cover-19 and economic slowdown has created some problems. But we must learn to adjust. Many dedicated people, professionals and volunteers, have and are continuing to deal with the problem. Thank you.

Meanwhile for the moment we have no baseball. Only hope that there will be baseball in July. Can we asked for anything more?


 ***We have been blessed to share baseball trivia with many people. Currently we are launching a small fund-raiser so that we can continue to offer valuable information in our baseball newsletter. For a $5.00 donation (click the donate button) we'd like you to have an Ernie Banks poster with our compliments.

The blog you read and newsletter you get every week is FREE. The generosity of your gift will help us continue to share baseball trivia and life with other people.

Why is baseball so important? There are lots of things in life with helpful suggestions that baseball fans like to read about. Please allow me to share some of them with you:

(1) Baseball and life helps meet our needs and makes the world a better place to live. Budget, good health, education, and God, are only a few of the many needs available.

(2) Baseball is popular. It's amazing to see baseball parks filled to their capacity every time there is a game. In every town there is a Little League team. Remember the traffic jam last time you went to a game? Nobody wants to miss out on all the action.

(3) Baseball is a good diversional activity for depression. It helps to chase away the troubles of the world.

(4) Baseball is entertaining. Munching on a hot dog and sipping a Coke with friends is great. And it's fun to mark down all the action on a scorecard.

(5) Baseball teaches teamwork. Nine baseball players give fans the thrill of an exciting game. 


So won't you please help us continue to make the world a better place to live?
