yeah right - September 26, 2018

A couple of weeks ago I took my annual, "Well shit I have to use up some vacation time" vacation. I'm a big baseball fan and I took the opportunity to add another MLB stadium to my "visited" list. I've been to 16 current MLB stadiums along with 5 or

Yes, I know, I know, it's football season and therefore nothing else matters, and you don't see the Canadian Commentist Contingent doing a hockey post for tomorrow (to my knowledge…), but the least I can do is see this through, right?

Four games down, two to go. And the nightcap being a win or go home game! The organizers must have loved that. This is arguably the best $150 I've spent on tickets for a sporting event. If it happens at Petco again in 2021, I'll definitely go again. Venezuela vs Puerto
