Spring Training game in West Palm Beach.  Here I am signaling the Marlin's catcher's sign to the Astros batter, Carlos Correa.  As you can see, I got everyone around me to join in.  We kid because we love.  wink

    I live in Houston and I hate the way the Astros keep stealing signs.  It's really hard to tell what street you're on after they've been through, and you have to approach every intersection like it was a four way stop.  But at least they haven't been stealing traffic lights.  Probably because they're too high to reach with their bats.

    ...here in Portland, motorists cyclists and pedestrians just tend to ignore signs as if they were missing.

    For a few decades now baseball, football, basketball have been in bad enough shape that I simply don't watch. What's the point? I can get the same with WWE which I have no interest in either. I like this game better: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Champion_Baseball

    Although on ROKU MLB.com does have a free game of the day even for non-subscribers I still maybe watch maybe 2 hours total the whole season it's just not rewarding to the fan to pay those prices for those results. I'm still drawn to the quiet ambience of the crowd in the background noise (and a voices of a few of the announcers).
