Franchise Dogs

(Another rerun…) I dropped in a line that I had been googling Tom Seaver’s dogs.   Well, look what Dan from 11th and Washington  NJ Baseball found:

They seem to have changed the website since I last looked into buying some of the wine, because I can’t find this one part about delivery that I remember seeing (I have a printout somewhere, but I don’t know where it is). But, from what I remember, if you ordered a case of wine (I think it had to be at least a case) within driving distance of the winery in California, Seaver himself would deliver it with one of the dogs. It had me considering renting a place for a week just to order some wine to be delivered.

 

 

 

The man in these photos seems nice.  He looks like a George.

Why I usually sell my Subway Series tickets

Now I remember why I usually sell my Subway Series tickets…nope it’s not just to off-set the cost….I forgot how annoying the crowds are.

This was my first Subway game at Citi Field.  I stopped attending them back in the Shea days.

I don’t know what it is – but it brings out the worst in both sets of fans.

So much yelling (negative) about nothing.  Please, shut p and drink your beer.

I lasted two innings upstairs before I resorted to what I will just call an alternative situation.   Alternative Situation was better..at least in that area the loudness was just unnecessarily screaming LETS GO METTTTTTTTSSS (not the normal cadence, the drunk kind) when on defense.

I’m glad I took my son.  We had a great day.  He now understands why I will sell the 2012’s.
