On the other hand, a couple that are friends of my wife and I, started their 3 sons playing travel ball at about 7. Dad even built a baseball field in the back yard. I guess it will payoff. Oldest son is in Omaha getting ready to play tomorrow, middle son is contemplating whether to play at AU or sign with the Orioles organization with a signing bonus at about 2 mil. The third son, who is about 9 may be the best athlete of the bunch. As a bonus, a cousin also just signed with AU.

Of course, mom and dad are really exceptional people that had help keeping all the priorities in order from a great set of grandparents, and others. These boys are not normal on the field but off they are All-American kids. A one in a million family.


Lord, please help us get our nation straightened out.
