Could One Baseball Shatter The Summer?




Over the next few weeks I'm going to provide inside information about some of my favorite story links. Today's spotlight is:

Could One Baseball Shatter The Summer?

Long-gone vacation days remain among our most treasured memories because of the moments we shared with beloved family members and friends. 

 My cousin Chris and I used our excess kid energy by playing catch outside the beach home that our families lived in during many memorable July days. One day we were outside having fun when...

When Baseball Cards Were King



Over the next few weeks I'm going to provide inside information about some of my favorite story links. 

 When Baseball Cards Were King

The hobby that introduced me to the game of baseball was the collection of baseball cards. 

 Buying packs of 'cardboard gold' during my early childhood remains a treasured memory. 

 These pre-sabermetric items were mini-encyclopedias in 3-D form. 

 So many great moments were shared with family members and friends/classmates in the late 1970s and early 1980s, some of which are listed in this feature. 

 'When Baseball Cards Were King' has been one of my most popular features, having been seen by well over 10,000 people since I first wrote it in May, 2011.

Preakness Stakes' Victory Stops Triple Crown Bid



Congratulations to Hall of Fame Jockey Gary Stevens and Hall of Famer trainer D. Wayne Lukas for taking a long shot and winning the Preakness Stakes. His victory aboard Oxbow stopped Triple Crown hopes for Orb. But, it could set up a nice battle at the Belmont Stakes on June 8 if both horses are entered in that third leg. 

 Stevens' win was quite a feat, as he rode the fifth longest shot (15-1) within the past century to victory in the 138th Preakness Stakes at Pimlico Race Course.

Horse racing has long been one of my favorite live sporting events because of the excitement that surrounds great days like this one.

5 Traits of Hardcore Philadelphia Phillies' Fans

Every longtime baseball fan considers himself/herself to be hardcore. In Philadelphia there are particular elements within the culture that helps to define who we are. 

I loved writing this one because the exaggerations weren't so far from reality. Those of us who saw the 1980 and 2008 World Series' victories are deeply fortunate and owe an eternal debt of gratitude to every fan who ever lived and never saw either great team.

Television Haiku Poem



Over the next week, or so, I'm going to provide inside information about each of the 'personal favorite' story links that are shown below. 

 Television Haiku Poem

Television is fully woven into the American culture and into many parts of the worldwide consciousness. Anyone who believes that the internet will break this thread must be unaware that radio was projected for the ash can many decades ago. 

 The advent of holographic images will cause a new dimension in television to move beyond the final line of this Haiku.

Horror Story: It Was Crawling Up My Chest!





Over the next week, or so, I'm going to provide inside information about each of the 'personal favorite' story links that are shown below. 

 Horror Story: It Was Crawling Up My Chest!
This story is based in fact. It happened to me during the summer of 1990. While the job element within the story was time shifted to further the plot, the remaining information happened exactly as stated. Humor mixes with the horror element to create one of my most satisfying real life-to-story transitions ever.

Mother's Day


Simply put: I've been blessed to have a great mom for my entire life. Who knows what my life (and many others) would have been like without her. 

 Words often flow. But on days like this one, actions and emotions speak the loudest.

 Thank you and God bless you MOM. My best also goes out to all great mothers everywhere!
