Day one was awesome...Bryan's team met for the first practice today and the difference between this year and last is mind-boggling. These kids can play the game. They GET it. They move. They fly. Bryan is "playing up" on AAA, which is cool and an honor, but the marked difference is staggering. New rules to adjust to, (stealing, etc is just coming into play) and they did fielding drills to help "shake off the winter cobwebs", but man, they did such a great job. Bryan commented when he got in the car how good it feels to RUN hard. Really Hard.
There are no more kids who just have no idea why they are there, or who are in the outfield looking longingly at the play structure wishing they didn't have to keep STANDING in left field, then becoming SHOCKED when they return from the daydream to realize that a ball has just whizzed by his head. This will be a fun season....But a little warmer would be FanTaStiC. ;o)
So Goodbye, XBox360...hopefully you see limited or no play until the snow flies again...NEXT December, God. Please, not until next December.
Today is the REAL First Day Of Spring at our house. And we love it.
