| | Mr. Gammons describes what Spring Training USED to be like ... and how it's changed through the years.

| | While few of us will lament the fact that scalpers may not be in a robust market this year, it's interesting to note that demand for tickets is apparently on a decline.

Considering he was drafted on the 36th round, it's probably a good decision. Guys that get drafted that low rarely make it to the bigs. If he were selected in the first ten rounds, that would be a...

| | Pretty interesting story .... Fort Myers / Lee County have WON the battle against Sarasota to retain the Red Sox.
Lee County is seeking donations of the land. Free land, to do this. This is not as far-fetched as it seems; a great deal of undeveloped real estate is held in parcels of well over 100 acres. If an entity...
