What I Believe
QUOTE OF THE WEEK

All the purposes of man have been defeated, but not the purposes of God. The promises of man may be broken—many of them are made to be broken—but the promises of God shall all be fulfilled. He is a promise-maker, but He never was a promise-breaker; He is a promise-keeping God, and every one of His people shall prove it to be so. This is my grateful, personal confidence, "The Lord will perfect that which concerneth me"—unworthy me, lost and ruined me. 

Charles Spurgeon, A Defense of Calvinism

Baseball Fever

 baseball.JPGThe Indians have clinched the AL Central and the Cubs are in first place in the NL Central and Baseball Fever is in full swing at our house.  With the enduring hope that both of our family's favorite teams will be in the playoffs this year, I've asked my former sports writer husband (former being "sports writer", not husband!) to be a guest blogger through the playoffs and (hopefully) into the World Series.

 This should be fun!

Sounds like fun!

Do you lean more towards the Tribe or the Cubbies?

As native Ohioans, we're died in the wool Indians fans, so I guess you'd say we lean more towards the Tribe. When we moved away from Ohio we couldn't watch the Tribe, so we started following the Cubs on WGN. It has never felt disloyal to be Cubby fans, because Cleveland is in the American League and Chicago is in the National League.

Right now, I'm more interested in the Cubbies since Cleveland has already clinched.

I've been dreaming of a Cleveland/Chicago World Series. I think that if that ever happened, our family would be a little schizophrenic--wanting both teams to do well. Either that or our true allegiance will be revealed.Bwhaaaahaaaha

Well, I've been a Cubs fan since our first date there at Wrigley Field - more than 30 years ago!
Prior to that date with Phil,I was a Pirates fan - in the good old days of Roberto Clemente, Willie Stargell, Bill Mazeroski and the Alou brothers!
Have you been to Wrigley Field - it is the best place on the planet for baseball!

Tom has baseball cards for all the players you mentioned! No, I haven't been to a game at Wrigley--yet! I've been to lots of games at Jacobs Field--Tom threw out the first pitch at a game during it's inaugural season! It's a beautiful ballpark, too. It doesn't have the history that Wrigley does, of course. . .
