Spring Training Opens!

Yea! Today was the opening of the spring training camp for the Houston Astros. The pitchers and catchers reported today and began workouts to get ready for the new season. The position players are not due till next week. Then just over a month from now, the season will open and all will be right in my world! Well, at least we will have ball games to watch!

Cubs Gear in Houston

I live in Houston and am an Astros fan. But when I go to a game against the Chicago Cubs at Minute Maid Park, it is not uncommon to find an awful lot of fans dressed in caps, tee shirts jerseys and other Cubs gear. I have wondered where they get all that stuff. Until today. That is when I learned about Cub World.com, which is about to celebrate its eighth anniversary of opening. They not only provide all the Cubs fans with a Wrigley Field atmosphere on the web, they also offer a wide range of Chicago Cubs apparel, much of which will no doubt show up at Minute Maid Park!
