BIRDS!!

I got invited to a cards game last night with a friend of mine and two other guys who I didn't know too well, and I suppose, still don't.



I'm becoming more and more of a Cards fan and a Busch fan, though I'm still not a fan of the huge corporate money machine that is MLB. Unfortunately, it's my view that to be a cards fan is to partially submit to this 1984-style "Big Brother" concept in Corporate America, which is why I'm hesitant to do so.

But on the practical "hey it's only a game" side of things, I did enjoy Chris Duncan's 3-run homer in the bottom of the sixth inning to assure our win, complete with fireworks. I also scored some yummy peanuts after chatting with another fan seated to my immediate left, and I liked seeing a pop fly come straight at us, and caught by somebody who wasn't paying attention to the game. Lesson learned, eh?
