Well, your photos are better than mine x infinity... and you had better seats...

Thanks for posting. They’re beautiful pictures. Especially the ones of Ryan and Travis… splendid.

Those are great!

I have some pictures too, nowhere near as good and taken from the far reaches of the bleachers….but such as they are I will post them soon. I was glad you got the A’S LET’S DO THIS sign, which hasn’t been around on a regular basis this year but always looks great — just the right balance of homemade and carefully done.

Don't blame me, I voted for Bill King.

Beautiful, friend

I'm here to talk about the past.

The Stomper photo is my favorite.

Yes, over Ryan and Travis.

Very nice. I’ll miss those hideous black jerseys this winter.

But he came back. And there was much rejoicing.

I'm at baggage claim

Where ARE you???

Baggage claim.

Look for the person wheeling around some black luggage.

But he came back. And there was much rejoicing.

I left her at home.

I thought you told me to come alone.

I'm here to talk about the past.

OK, I thought you said

You were looking for the person wheeling around some black luggage.

It’s early here.

Raider shirt behind Rickey

says “Commitment to Excellence”.

That’s silly.

Here’s Rickey 28 years ago (he’s on the right):

Great pics.

I was wondering what those letters said in that luxury box over in RF. I wonder if they’re somehow related to that “Bobby, you’re hot” girl in 215.
