I’m not sure if it’s feeling like spring where you live. I just know Florida and Arizona are starting to bloom. Baseball is in the air. And I so want to be there. I’m sure you would too. So I suggest imagining yourself in this cartoon. Think of it as a Field of Dreams. And who knows. If you click your heels together like Dorothy in the Wizard of Oz you might just not be in Kansas anymore.

P.S. I want to thank everyone for their heartwarming responses yesterday. You all are the best!

One of the biggest reasons I started this blog was to have a chance to connect with as many of the people who read my cartoons as possible. I want to know as many of you as I can through the comments you leave, as well as my replies back. That said, I’m so sorry I haven’t been as “talkative” in the comments section lately as I would like to be. I apologize. I think my batteries just got rundown a little. I’ll try to be better about commenting more to each of you who stop by. There are quite a few of you who are regulars in the comments section and as the song goes I want this to be a place “where everyone knows your name and we’re always glad you came”. Especially me. Without you I wouldn’t be doing this. Thanks for your support. Have a great Monday. Rejoice! Spring training is here!

My favorite kinds of cartoons are always ones about how sports effects us at home in our family life. This is a prime example.

The Beast from the East. That’s what I’m calling them. These four incredible arms all on one team. Roy Oswalt, Roy Halladay, Cole Hamels and Cliff Lee. It’s enough to send a batter back to the dugout without even taking a swing. This is an amazing story. It could go down as the greatest rotation in baseball history. Let me know what you think. As for me, I’m just glad Cliff Lee didn’t go to the Yankees.

Today’s View From the Bull Pen

The odds aren't good. Simply put waiting for an NBA player to make a free throw is a bit like waiting for the Cubs to win the World Series. It just ain't gonna happen. At least in our lifetimes. It reminds me of one of my favorite stories. Legendary basketball coach Don Haskins, all 250 plus pounds of him, had a player who apparently thought a bit highly of himself and didn't find his deficiency at the free throw line to be that big of a deal. Haskins challenged him to a free throw contest and let the kid go first. The kid hit a couple out of 10 or so and proudly handed old man Haskins the ball. After the coach hit his 100th in a row without a miss the kid learned his lesson. Don't argue with the Bear. And learn to shoot free throws.

There isn't a way to leave comments in the Bull Pen (that I've found yet) so please feel free to leave your comments under the latest cartoon that I post.
