OMG Ray Ray!!! I am SOOOO HAPPY FOR YOU!!! Its so funny to here this because I had to actually turn my husband onto sports. His family were such workaholics that he didnt know how to enjoy tv other than cartoons!!! Its ok as a kid I think to watch cartoons.. but he still comes home every morning and watches them!! He's 48!! LOL!!!!! Well between cartoons and the History Channel EWWW!!! LOL.

But anyways... I have loved sports since I was younger. I played softball when I was in middle school for 3 yrs. It was difficult for me cause I was heavier. But I was a terrific shortstop!!! I made some awsome plays and could hit that ball hard!! Guess putting some weight behind the bat helped!! HAHAHHAA!!! I used to get to go to the Cincinatti Reds games all the time. My brothers company made the turf for their stadium and the Bengals also. TOO COOL! WE had tickets behind home base just to the right of it.. lots of foul balls came our way but I never got one .. sigh ohhh well. But I did get my picture taken with Mario Soto and Bill Bonham.. that was fun!! 10 yrs ago.. when my nephew was sick with a brain tumor.. and had his surgery. I vowed to him that I would become a Cleveland Indians fan if he came out of the surgery.. tried to give him extra incentive ya know! IT WORKED!! Unfortunately he ended up passing away 4 months later. The tumor was inoperable , but I still remain a fan. I love Love LOOOOOOOVE FOOTBALL AND NASCAR though. I cant wait for the preseason football games to start this weekend!! Bengals are my absolute favorites.. but I do like the St Louis Rams and Colts too. And Nascar.. who else is there besides Jr.. Gotta love a guy who drives fast and hard as he does and takes after his Dad!!! And one sho stands up for himself and not feel like he has to live under his wicked step mom! Grrrrrrrrr I have no idea what Sr was thinking giving her that kind of control over something she knows nothing about! Ok.. I blabbed enough here lol..

Thanks for starting this thread Ray Ray!! I'm enjoyin it so far!! lol
