    Hahaha! I'm just waiting for the day when everyone beats everyone and football and baseball goes out of business! I have a deep seeded hatred for sports cuz when we were kids my mother would not let us watch any tv/movies except Little House On The Prairie, Grizzly Adams, and Wildlife Kingdom. Never failed that my dad would switch the tv station from those shows to his football game.....grrrr! Now, I don't even watch tv but I can't let go of the grudge.

    At first, I thought this thread would be about the Memphis Redbirds, Triple-A Minor League team.

    Then I realized there would never be a thread about Minor League Baseball, and had to click out of curiosity.

    I love minor league ball. I grew up going to Ray Winder Field (the Fenway of the minors) to watch the Arkansas Travelers, at the time St. Louis' AA team. I also used to see the Memphis Chicks play. I was at Bo Jackson's professional debut in Memphis.

    Now, I watch the Mobile Bay Bears. They are now the Diamondbacks AA team.

    I know, I know. 'Redbirds' has also been the nickname for the Cardinals ever since they adopted the bird as the symbol on the uniform.

    The Beloit Snappers are a minor league team for the Twins. Might go sometime, but knowing that they are affiliated with the Twins doesn't help.

    For the Cardinals. I've seen players on other teams that would make marvelous addition to our team. As always, we could sure use more pitching!

    Yeah, if we could just get that local boy I used to watch pitch for the Bay Bears over to the Cardinals we'd be in great shape. I'll probably be fishing with him and his dad father-in-law next time he's home. Maybe I can convince him!

    Around here folks would think you were talking about the Redwings...

    We had the Phoenix Giants when I grew up. I think they're still there. And, of course, the little red birdie football team moved to the Valley of the Sun too.
