Thanks for this, I really enjoyed it - especially the commentary about my SS position...

Are you saying i should move the fences back at Racquetos Field?

That actually could work. I would also recommend video of him "saving" some poor elderly person from a burning building. The news people love that stuff I hear he saved a professional Wii tennis player in China-town, Philladelphia once... maybe we could recreate that and put it on public access tel...

Bandits, Barnstormers Make Deal Birmingham took steps today to improve their relief corp for both the present and the future by obtaining veteran MR Jimmy Cleaves , as well as, minor league relievers Carlos Jimenez and Richard Smith from Omaha in a just announced trade.
