I’ve got a crazy idea: 1. have a channel/app and put all the @Cardinals games on it. 2. Have @DannyMacTV call all 162 games. 3. Charge $1000+ a year for it. 4. Count your money. I’m currently listening to 3 complete idiots jabber on about someone’s vacation, it’s 100% the shits.

When Jack passed it felt like the end of my youth. Now that Mike is retiring it feels like the end of being a young man. The happy feeling in my heart is that one day my son Gussie will feel this same love and admiration in his heart when @DannyMacTV retires.
