Due to the murkiness of this scan, you'll have to take me at my word: those are palm trees beyond the outfield fence in Fort Lauderdale. I'm gazing longingly at this tropical scene because I just heard that there is snow in the forecast in Baltimore for this Sunday, a.k.a. the first day of Spring. Temperatures have been around 70 for the past few days. Very funny, huh? Almost as funny as Topps/Bowman devoting "prospect" cards in multiple 2007 releases to
a guy who'd been bouncing around the minors since 1998 and had already been cut loose by the Orioles.
The post you linked to is from my very first day working in the "real world" - 4/21/08. It's amazing to think about how far I've come in life since you started this blog. Has it really been 8 years already?
ReplyDeleteI know what you mean, Zach. I was just realizing today that "Dubya" was still president when I started blogging here.
