When I was a kid, there was no chance of this. Pirates all day! Not anymore  |
As a kid my parents took us to opening day every year. I played baseball. I loved baseball. It was my sport.
I vividly remember as an 8 year old watching the Sid Bream play on tv. So much of my youth way baseball.
And now, I detest them. Not the players but the ownership and all he represents. So much so that when I got the email from Wigle Whiskey (a local company I loved) about Bob Nutting buying them, I unsubscribed and haven’t bought a single thing from them since. He is a scourge to Pittsburgh.
