I know. That's the funny thing about baseball - if you aren't a fan you could never quite understand what that thing is but if you're a true fan and you read/hear someone talking about their team it's as plain as day. It's that intangible true love that each fan has for his or her team.
It's such a beautiful quotation. Pitchers and catchers always report on or around my birthday and it's just the best present ever and it's like you say - it just makes everything so whole again.
I really love Melky and Robbie in the background. It's just so... perfect. I dunno, it makes me smile everytime I see it. And I can never get enough of that quotation - it's amazing how he summed up baseball in three lines.
They can bring me boundless joy or they can cause my heart to shatter into a thousand sharp pieces, yet it's still a gamble I happily take 162 days a year.
I could not have said it better myself.
You did a great job on this! I especially love the coloring/texture you used on the one of Andy. :]
and waved away each and every boo bird with the swing of his bat
That's actually pretty clever, IMO. I'd never have thought of it!
Haha I just went back up to look at the texture you were talking about and I realized it looks like Andy's shoe is untied because of the way the way the texture meshes with the picture. Thought it was much funnier than it should have been.
Thanks! :D My metaphor (or whatever the hell those things are) have been working overtime recently and I'm just used to having to apologize for the absolute crap that keeps coming out of my mouth these days.
that last quote - i've read it on karlie's away message before - it is such an amazing quote. i wish basketball had pretty quotes like that (but no, our writers suck. *facepalm*) such pretty pictures - and i wish i could add more to everything but i really am not very baseball intelligent. sigh. but i jsut want to say that your love for these boys makes me smile. ♥

Yeah they did come through and I hope they took a lot out of it and keep that fire for next year.
It really is the best quotation ever.
