Throwing it around

Mell Allen (of TWIB fame) would tell you that Saturdays were made for baseball, and we subscribe to that theory. Saturday afternoon has always been our favorite time of the week, and that especially goes for in the summer. So the sun is shining, the weather is warm and there will be baseball on your television today. Take in a game and rejoice.
