I was really hoping they would wait until 2019 so they could celebrate the 150th Anniversary of baseball.

Well maybe in 2069 then so it can be the 200th.

So will Loria and the Marlins ever get to host the All-Star game?

Yeah and hopefully it will be on the 11th and I can celebrate my 95th birthday.

When my wife and I lived in southern Indiana I tried Skyline chili one evening in Louisville on my lunch break and was surprised to see spaghetti noodles with it. In Texas we don't do that.

By my reckoning, there are just four cities where baseball is still more important than football: New York, Boston, St. Louis and Cincinnati.

Not this again. It is simply not true about Boston.

If you're referring to me, my argument was ALWAYS "everything being equal". Obviously, right now that's not the case. But what happens <gulp> if/when the Patriots go in the crapper?

Again, the Celtics are far and away the most successful Boston franchise of all time. But IMO, they are dead last in my "EBE" scenario.

Once the area "discovered" that football is the best sport in the world, it's no looking back. My kids and their cousins are Patriots #1 and that's the next generation. Maybe 55+ guy that calls in to WEEI is still Red Sox first but it's the younger generation that is going to keep football #1.

And I think you are proving my point with the Celtics 4th even with all the success.

Oh and I wasn't referring to you.

Anyway, back to topic.

Congrats to Cincy getting the ASG. That ballpark is on my short list of must field trips (Pittsburgh, San Francisco and Minnesota being the others).

I'm done on this topic.

I'd like to go to great American ball park sometime. I've been to Paul Brown stadium and it looked really cool from the outside.

I love skyline chili (4 way).

If you ever go, let me know and maybe we can meet up. It is only 3 hours away for me.

The Patriots were discovered by the New England fans during the decade-long run with Steve Grogan at the helm, culminating (terminating?) in their 1986 Super Bowl appearance, but then they had 17 straight blacked out games from 1988 to 1990. More recently, they successfully passed the torch from Bledsoe to Brady without having a single lean year, so there is no empirical basis for declaring their fair weather support to have become a thing of the past.

The Red Sox attendance doubled in 1967 and then became entrenched starting in the mid 1970s. When they have had lean intervals since then, their fans still showed up to boo.
