ROCKOLLECTIONS: PLAY BALL PT.2

It's the Second Inning- no score, nobody on and nobody out!
We continue with Baseball, which has long been called Our National Pastime, but probably isn't anymore.
Sex is still a Popular Sport though, and we'll listen to a trick that has always worked for me, lol!
You'll hear about my Love/Hate Relationship with Baseball....like you care!
Then it's a Musical Look at some Centerfielders
It's amazing to think that in the 50's, New York City had arguably the 3 BEST Centerfielders in the Game!
I'll end this Episode with what Baseball should mean today- and a poke at the lazy kids of today and the empty ballfields I sadly see- beautiful fields we would have killed to play on, and yet there are no kids to be seen.
And it's official, we will continue to Play Ball next week!

Here are the links, and please pay attention to the 3rd Base Coach, he's giving you the Signs, at Mike Pell Rockollections:

Got another one for you, LOL!

Comment by Jon on October 4, 2014 at 5:24pm: Thanks!

Comment by Mike Pell on October 4, 2014 at 5:10pm: That's the one!

You know I say the Original because this was considered sexist and changed in the 80's:

Bring the kiddies and bring the wife, guaranteed to have the time of your life.

It's on the way.

Comment by Jon on October 4, 2014 at 5:07pm: Sure, I'll step right up and greet the Mets.

Bring the kiddies and bring the wives, guaranteed to have the time of your lives.

Something like that.

Comment by Mike Pell on October 4, 2014 at 5:03pm: That YOU ARE JON!!!

Give 'em HELL!!!

Hey I just played the Original Meet The Mets for the show next week, you want it?

Comment by Jon on October 4, 2014 at 4:57pm: I have no idea if it's still good. Should dig it out and take a trip to Jersey. If it's not accepted, I'll just bitch and moan because I'm entitled, dammit!

Comment by Mike Pell on October 4, 2014 at 4:50pm: A rock station, well that could be good or bad- probably like most of them, it's bad!

Still have a discount card from them, eh- is it still good, lol?

You, like me, appear to be a saver...a packrat!

Comment by Jon on October 4, 2014 at 4:22pm: I have no idea what their current format is........

.....until now when I looked it up and they're a rock station, have been for many, many years now.

I still have a card I got from them back in the early 80's, think it was a discount card.

Comment by Mike Pell on October 4, 2014 at 4:10pm: Jon,

I've heard of WDHA.

When I saw things by Spike Jones as a kid I loved it.

Every kid digs the chaos they brought to the music, using everything possible to make sounds, even gunshots, lol!

They were like the Marx Brothers of music!

That's right, THE Apple wasn't in Citifield when it first opened ..forgot about that.

What does WDHA play now?

Have their owners become *$#%%$%$ morons too?

Comment by Mike Pell on October 4, 2014 at 3:27pm: Scott,

No I don't think I ever have seen Rupert.

Aha, maybe that's why you guys seem to dislike Rupert Holmes?

I'll have to take a look...hope it doesn't change how I feel about him.

His music isn't that bad, I like the song I played here that he did!

It just occured to me, I really liked Peter Allen when he first came out.

Saw him perform, and I had to re-think how I felt, lol!

Easy answer to your question, "Since this is the second inning, does that mean there will be at least 9 of these?"

NO!!!

And no possibility for extra innings.

I would really be stretching it if I did 9 parts, people would tune me out and never come back, lol!

The game will proceed with strategic jumps in the innings.

You see, I am umpiring the game too, lol!

Thanks for the listen and writing,

Mike
