Welp, My Boy Spent this week in CoopersTown NY for his wack at the Fields up there and did quite well, I was rather proud of my Littlest harmonic...naturally i couldn't get the week off this is our busy season an all But.. I'm just glad and Happy the boys had a wonderful Time up there...Traded Lots an Lots of Pins..Dad..LOL....can't wait to see'em all.. :D

If they'd let the kids alone an work it out for themselves they prolly woulda Fared up better..But....when the adults step in it ruins the fun.. Oh Well....

Play Ball..............wherever you Can Boys...

Yeah, they definitely are freakin snobs in Greenwich. Fairfield and Westport aren't any different either. I sure as hell like working down that part of the state however. These people have more cash than they know what to do with and don't care what the bill says, JUST fix it already.

sounds like they approached it correctly.
the town is trying to find an appropriate place to relocate the field to.
I would not want a bunch of screaming kids everyday in my backyard, this isnt a small group either about 50+ people gathering.

     after the ball games and on some nights the older kids were drinking beer (OH LORD!), having SEX (heaven forbid!) and hot rodding their Beamers around the area. it just had to be stopped... back about 1975 or so i was working in Greenwich and was detained by the cops there for some hours on suspicion of murdering Martha Moxley (a Kennedy did it). my only crime was driving a red primered 1968 Fairlane through Greenwich. you ain't safe in Greenwich even if you are nearly WHITE, and i'm as white as one can be.

     it's a tough place to live today- coyotes are there now and they sometimes carry innocent little doggies and cats off into the brush to be eaten, Negroes (oh my God!) often drive through town on their way to work in Stamford, and the common folk won a court battle and must now be allowed to use to the Town beach and public boat dock. Jeezus H Christ i'm origionally from Larchmont NY (ten times as tight ass as Greenwich) and i'm not good enough to stop there for burgers... i hope those kids go out and fire a some lead filled wiffle balls through a few McMansion windows. the residents involved in all the piss and moan truly deserve it.

HolyMooooly.. Do you know where your kids are tonight. Yep in the back yard having fun. Not sitting on their butts eating fat chips play one eyed stare tube, not un-supervised breaking into ol ladies houses, not dopin, not having Sex in someone parents bedroom. There right out there doing something harmlss learning social skills that will benifit America. If they breakout the beer, we'll ask uncle law man to fix that. If the Gangs start showing up, we'll fix that. But those Good Kids who put their hearts and minds into this will be giving congrats and protection by the neibors. Or so it would have been in the 40's and 50's. Given by tose who had just fought a World War and knew what freedon really meant.
America the free does not exist anymore.. Yea we need change, get out your guns boys it's gone get ruff around here...
