I am very fortunate that to have some great friends. Our close group has been together for years, dating back from when we were kids, attending some of the same summer camps, and then high school. There has been some distance in the group starting with college, but we have stayed in great contact and [...]

A unique autograph
Posted on 29. Oct, 2010 by Corey.
To every sports fan, adding an autograph to your collection can be a big deal. It is gotten to be such a big deal, that sports memorabilia has become a billion dollar industry. To think that some athletes get paid money to sign their name on an item is crazy. I do have great memories [...]

Texas Ranger Mitch Moreland, the Pitcher
Posted on 18. Oct, 2010 by Corey.
While watching a Major League Baseball game with my buddies it is common practice for them to ask me lots of questions about certain teams or players. Their reasoning is to try to stump me with their inquiry as they are nowhere near as interested in the game as I am. The funny part is [...]

Today, I am Happy to be a Cincinnati Reds Fan
Posted on 11. Oct, 2010 by Corey.
I waited 15 years for that? Yep, and I would not trade any of it for anything in the world. I watched exactly three hours of baseball in Great American Ballpark and the season for the Cincinnati Reds came to a close. I swore I was sitting back in Riverfront Stadium in 1999 watching Al [...]

Target Field, Part Deuce
Posted on 02. Oct, 2010 by Corey.
So my dad and I were unsure how to spend our last day in Minnesota. The Twins had an afternoon game, so we decided to go downtown and eat and ask some ticket scalpers how much seats would cost for the sold out contest. Being so close to game time, we were able to score [...]

Target Field, Home of the Minnesota Twins
Posted on 02. Oct, 2010 by Corey.
It is hard to explain, but visiting sports stadiums really excites me. My friends always joke that I would pull of the highway to see a Little League in a new stadium, and they could be right. Although it means nothing more than bragging rights and self satisfaction, I enjoy being able to say that [...]

2010 Cincinnati Reds Central Division Championship Gear
Posted on 30. Sep, 2010 by Corey.
Not sure if it is because of my dad, or my background in working in the equipment field, but I have always been a “gear” guy. I love wearing the official, or even non official, team stuff in every color or size available. So knowing the Cincinnati Reds were on the verge of clinching the [...]
