    Get in your May Predictions so you can give us a "I knew it," on June 1st. COL 3 SF 3 LAD 3 KC 3 STL 3 TB 3 HOU 3 SF 4 TOR 2 Total = 27 My prediction - 13-14 staying alive

    I wanted to bump this to see if anyone had any advice. We are taking our oldest son (10) as a surprise for his birthday. We are going to do several things around Boston but we will attend a game as well. I've never been to a game at Fenway and I love old baseball parks, so I'm really excited! Any advice for things to do pre or post game around Fenway, please let me know.

    I thought I'd check in to see how the start of the season is going. Bobahunter, how was the volunteer turnout?

    Louis Ely - Son of two teachers, I think we count! That's amazing that there are so many teachers on here. Thanks for what you all do! Crazy this thread just popped up because I was crunching numbers on our retirement accounts just this weekend to see how we are doing. We are a little ahead of where we should be using some basic rule of thumb calculations, so that was nice to see. I think what we are struggling with is what do we want in retirement. That is obviously a big part of understanding where you need to be at certain ages. Also when do we want to retire. I feel like that all could change depending on what our kids end up doing and where they end up. As others have said, just put that money away and start right away. It's so important. Madbad2000 - That's a great way of looking at things. Don't keep chasing more as your career progresses. We've started to pull back on things like cars. I'm going to try and follow that mindset!

    I too have been questioning this a bit. I do think there will be a draw to go watch your team when they play in Vegas. I would love to do that. But my question is, will it be an annual thing for people or just something people will want to do once. We shall see. I hope it works because I think it will be cool. I'm sure the stadium will be bonkers and cater to the people looking for a higher end experience.

    That West Coast swing went way better that I could have hoped for. What a blast. Keep it rolling!

    Didn't realize he's still only 26..... possible person to trade, maybe a change of scenery helps him out?

    First off, I do like BA and Rock. I don't want BA to leave, he's so good. I don't care if he's only there for a partial schedule, we are lucky to have him. I think Levering does a good job and is a professional broadcaster. I didn't like Vinny when he started working on air. Two days ago I thought to myself, "boy Vinny is getting pretty good, I kind of like him now." You can tell he's working at it and becoming more comfortable. I think it's good what we have going right now. A good mix of talent. It keeps things fresh. It should keep the people who get super annoyed by the repetitiveness of a daily broadcaster and their sayings happy.

    That was a fun win. Fingers crossed for Burnes. Love what this team is bringing every day. Go Brew Crew!
  10. RobDeer 45
    That was a wild play and when they sent him I yelled "WHAT!" Great send, great send.
  11. RobDeer 45
    Yes I was initially relived it was his left peck but a pitcher does use that muscle quite a bit ripping their glove hand through on the throw. Fingers crossed.
  12. RobDeer 45
    NOOOOOOOOO. Burnes!!!!
  13. RobDeer 45
    OWBC - I thought you lived in Seattle but wasn't positive. That's awesome you have season tickets. I've been to Seattle once and we walked around near the stadium. I loved the city! Well I hope we can make it there the next time they play. Thanks for the info.
  14. RobDeer 45
    I was so fired up about him doing that. I used to irrationally love fast guys that could create on the base paths. That's why I got so excited about players like Tony Gwynn Jr and Carlos Gomez back in the day. Keep bringing the speed along with good defense! Love this young group.

    Anyone on here ever go to a game at Seattle? I said to my wife yesterday, next time the Brewers play in SEA, we should go! She agreed. Curious how the experience is at their stadium.
  16. RobDeer 45
    The way the game started I was worried we were going to get back to back stinkers. Things have changed quickly and now I'm all smiles. Close it out Burnes!
  17. RobDeer 45
    This really stressed me out when I heard the news. I hate shoulder issues. It almost always leads to more issues. I really hope it's just the team being extra cautious, which they should be.
  18. RobDeer 45
    Wow..... at a loss for words. edfunderburk - well said and I'm impressed by the note. A good reminder that we are all on the same team here. This is a place for debate, and sometimes that gets a little heated, but there is no need to stress out about it. Agree to disagree and move on. You don't get extra points for making others change their mind.

    Thanks for the recap! I like all the added media in here.

    Life got crazy but I kept thinking I need to get this thread up, so sorry I'm late for the annual tradition! What are your April Predictions? NYM 1 STL 3 AZ 3 SD 4 SEA 3 BOS 3 DET 3 LAA 3 Total 23 (remaining) My prediction is 13-10
  21. RobDeer 45
    Boy this team has been fun to watch so far! I love having the young kids up and making an impact. Hope they can keep up the great work. Go Crew!
  22. RobDeer 45
    Heck of a game! They were going full go for more than half the 2nd half. It was nuts. I didn't think they could keep up that pace. Nowell is so fun to watch. He had some amazing passes.

    Badger fan here but never wish anything bad for Marquette. I always cheer them on, I just don't watch them like I watch UW. I hate the talk about choking, that's not fair at all. Turnovers killed them for stretches of the game and that's why they lost. They battled and should be proud of their effort and season. I hope they take another step forward next year!

    I would say our league is really well run. As for coaching, we have volunteer hours that everyone has to do. You write a big check, maybe $250 per kid, at the beginning of the year. If you don't complete your volunteer hours they cash the check. Coaching takes care of the full amount, and for multiple kids. I think that's smart because the coaches put in a lot of time. Other things to do are concessions, field prep, they used to have umping on there, volunteering for uniform and equipment distribution, and then of course clerical things. If you make that check big enough, you'll get plenty of volunteers!

    Cool, just wanted to clarify. I'd add to that, most people should keep a good mix of equity stocks (with fixed income) in retirement because hopefully most people will have 20-30 years of life left and will want their money to continue to work for them.
