My Wife is a Royals fan, American League. I’ll move to Tibet if it’s a Phillies-Royals World Series.

A love hate relationship run amok. Mine started in 1964. The Phillies had the World Series tickets printed. And a young child’s heart was broken, yet to be repaired. But I keep coming back for more sadness than not. Each and every year. That’s why they call us fans.

My avatar is seasonal. I went from baseball season to election season.

They gave them out as a premium for subscribing to Vineline. They certainly couldn’t sell ‘em.

Well, at least there was 2016. That makes up for 1969, and 1984, and 1989, and 2003 and on and on and on.
