Breaking news (Baseball related)

[Baseball Guru]

It's not official yet but it appears that MLB games will be cancelled through the weekend...
It looks like they will start back up on Monday.....Again, this has just broke on ESPN so I am not sure on all the details.....
Also, some of the minor leagues have cancelled the rest of their seasons and declared champions or co-champions.....
Brooklyn is the co-champs of their league.....

After todays events with all the bomb scares I think this will probably be the best thing!!! Unfortunate that we need to live in fear still, because of some idiots who think it is fun to make idle threats!!!!

I know it is probably the best thing but as I was telling Kellye earlier I am kinda sad that there is no baseball this weekend as I was looking forward to something that would give me some sort of relief from all this crap and take my mind off of this...I want to see the pennant races...I want to see Barry make a run at history...I want to cry when Cal plays his last game.......
I just want to feel right again........I want some tuype of normalcy (sp?) to grasp at.....

This is how I feel and it is from the movie "Field of Dreams"

Baseball once reflected the best about America:

The one constant through all the years, Ray, has been baseball. America has rolled by like an army of steamrollers. It's been erased like a blackboard, rebuilt, and erased again. But baseball has marked the time. This field, this game, is a part of our past, Ray. It reminds us of all that once was good, and that could be again. Oh people will come, Ray. People will most definitely come.

"Who, that was not a witness, could imagine that the most violent local prejudices would cease so soon, and that Men who came from the different parts of the Continent, strongly disposed, by the habits of education, to despise and quarrel with each other, would instantly become but one patriotic band of Brothers" -george washington-
