POPSWaving Goodbye To The House All my memories of the bleachers suddenly pass before me... throwing beer at the box seats, the guy setting his hair on fire to the cheers of the crowd, Griffey Jr. telling us we were crazy with a smile on his face... those were the days!

POPSIt's, it's, it's... Out of the Park! While record companies complain and file lawsuits against music lovers, Apple tried something different and now makes more from iPhones than computers and is up in the Wal-Mart region for music sales. Score one for trying a new model. I wonder who will be the one to do this for The Assembly Line School?

POPS100-Year-Old Batboy Decades-Long Sox Fan
why i love baseball... see link for vid But it did. Wearing his custom-make "Big Pappy" Boston Red Sox Jersey - a gift from his daughter - Giddon arrived for batting practice at Fenway Park Saturday. He handled more helmets than bats. A string of Red Sox players made a point to meet him, including the real "Big Papi," slugger David Ortiz. "You got some hits for me," Ortiz asked Giddon. The last time Giddon was a batboy was 1923 - a bag of peanuts cost 5 cents, and he was 13, working for the old Boston Braves. Giddon once met Babe Ruth, but his favorite player was Ted Williams. "Did you ever thing about playing baseball?" Pinkston asked. "It was more of a dream," Giddon said. "But I don't think I was built for it. I wasn't tall or strong enough." It was Kennesaw Mountain Landis, the first commissioner of baseball, who steered him to a different career. "He says, 'I think you ought to be a lawyer, you ought to go to law school,'" Giddon said. That's what Giddon

POPSObama: Normandy. Inchon. Khe San. Gettysburg, et. al.
It's Not that the content of President Obama's speechs are extraordinary or his ability to give one second to none but for those of us who notice such things he goes around hitting Home Runs out of the ballpark like he's Babe Ruth or Hank Arron...or you might say he's a striker who's gonna take the team to the World Cup. Put aside all the criticism he gets daily in the corrosive media - he has a tremendous love of his country, it's struggles and it's history . It's very inclusive of us all. Finally, after 65 years of praising Normandy someone mentions Inchon & Khe San. It's also very balanced, he see the good and the bad but knows that better is better. He's said, 4example, the war in Iraq was W-R-O-N-G. Has any president every said a war was wrong before? Of course this may not be everyone's cup of tea but to honor the dead soldier in a nation's struggles is a worldwide and (sorrowful) eternal task, Here, his speech tolls the Liberty Bell. May we all come to rest in

POPS Honoring Satchel Paige On Saturday in Cincinnati, baseball will stage its Civil Rights Game, an event created three years ago to draw attention to the game’s racial legacy, which pre-1947 meant players of color were excluded from wearing a big-league uniform.
