I would be very surprised if the parents don't apologize for having the celebration during the last weekend of the season! Like I said, they are all crazy fans, and we have watched many games with them and their kids over the years. In fact, we were there for the Pedro-Zimmer showdown. It was quite interesting to see these kids get really upset to see grown men fighting over a game. <BR/><BR/>Anyway, enjoy the games, everyone. And I sure hope Tek doesn't get up with bases loaded again.Amyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15720293202890878993noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5730822.post-80531036359462352662007-09-27T20:04:00.000-07:002007-09-27T20:04:00.000-07:00I'd take that over the Red Sox going quietly in th...<I>I'd take that over the Red Sox going quietly in the 9th. </I><BR/><BR/>Ish, I agree.

Anyway, I hope you all enjoy the next two games, which I will miss due to the bar mitzvah. I am hoping that there will be a large screen somewhere at the party on Saturday, but doubt it even though the kid and his family are huge Sox fans. Oh, well, keep the faith.
