When I was in Little Rock, Steve and I always talked about going to see the Arkansas Travelers (Little Rock's AA league team in the Cardinals organization, I think?) play. But, somehow, we never got around to it. Now he's in Ireland, and I'm in Jonesboro, so I guess it'll never happen now. *sigh* Maybe we can catch the Chicks (AAA for the Cards, right?) sometime, if we get desperate enough Scotley?
Rhun,
Just thought of something. You aren't a fan of 4e right? But you like the Tome of Battle, right? That book is very similar to the mechanics of 4e in that they give martial characters expendable resources like the mage. 4e has this for all classes, limiting some to once/encounter and then some to once per day.
Just curious.
Flynn likes to go and is becoming a baseball fan thanks to his Grandmother, who is a big A's fan (yes there are a few of them around). He's even been out to Oakland to see them play.
Redbirds! I knew that! I think I was chanelling 1982 for some reason. Yeah, obviously it's already too late this year.It is the Redbirds now rather than the Chicks, but they Triple A for the Cards. They have a spiffy new stadium downtown. It makes for a pretty entertaining afternoon or evening.

I think the season is just about over, so we may have to shoot for spring. They're on the road this week and I think the last game is Labor day. Besides, its too freakin' hot now compared to April and May.
I thought that "right between Oakland and San Fran" was out in the middle of the Bay??The A's are actually my team as well! Of course, I'm originally from the Oakland area. Well, right between Oakland and San Fran, but for some reason I like the A's and not the Giants.![]()

...or, for that matter, with Newark, AR, which is in southern Arkansas.Close, lol. Newark, CA actually. Not to be confused with Newark, NJ, which is across the country.![]()

We've got a couple of minor league teams in Utah. The Salt Lake Bees (they've been through several name changes...the Buzz, the Stingers, etc), and the Orem Owls. Our field in Salt Lake is nice though. You can get the cheap seats for like $6, and then go sit on the grassy berm and watch the game. Pretty nice in the summers.
