When baseball fans feel that a ballpark is a shrine rather than
just a place to watch a baseball game, then there must be
something about the park that makes it so great. Whether it's
the view, the enthusiasm, or the game itself, not many
activities beat watching an intense game at a place you love. If
you want to watch a game where the prices are good and the
crowds are even better than these are the parks for you.
First is Miller Park in Milwaukee. With an average ticket price
of just ...

become the Los Angeles Lakers. Basically the Lakers surrendered
to Kobe, and he got all that he ...

My Prize Piece of Baseball Memorabilia
Back in the day ...
I used to deal in baseball cards, and some memorabilia in the
mid to late 1980's. Through an old client I had the opportunity
to sell a very rare piece of baseball lore. The piece that I was
fondest of was a rare document signed by Harry Wright. A
founding father of the game. The document was a contract of some
player that was signed by Harry Wright, the manager, circa 1870.
It was written on Cincinnati Red Stocking's letterhead.

When you've been at the top of your game and the best of the best, sometimes fans think it's easy to repeat past successes. For the most part, it is often easier said than done to repeat a championship year, particularly if there was a great deal of struggle. During preseason games this year, the Los Angeles Lakers took on the competition both at home and away and made a great show of putting the game in their pocket most of the time. In October, there were plenty of fan smiles to go around as ...

Trophies have come to symbolize recognition of a job well done. All sports are competitive and while we emphasize that winning isn't everything, the winning team that worked so hard to achieve that goal should receive accolades. Often times trophies are awarded to 1st, 2nd and 3rd place winners and some go as far as 5th. It is nice to receive a trophy in one of those categories and if you don't receive one, to aspire to that for the next season. Fantasy football has become a national past time ...
