I'm a baseball nut and I didn't even know you
were trying to do this.

I'll add it to my groups and visit often.

4. YES! A baseball Group

I will visit here often. I'm an enthusiastic Indians fan. I collected baseball cards as a kid (in the 50s) and can't think of a better way to spend a Sunday morning than checking out the box scores from the previous week. I've gone to Spring Training three of the last four years and take pictures of the players instead of get their autograph. Instead on pictures of my wife and kids, I have pictures of Indian players on my desk and walls at work (don't tell my wife and kids!).

Often it's tough being a fan of a small market team, especially when you lose a Ramirez or a Thome to a club with deeper pockets. Still, I think Indian fans appreciate the wins more than Yankee or Red Sox fans. Those teams are supposed to win and usually do, so the losses must hurt. I'm used to the Indians losing, so when they do something extraordinary, like beat the Yankees 22-0 like they did last year, the pleasure is indescribable.

I hope we can get some good discussions going this year. I hope plenty of AL Central fans will drop in frequently.
