The Squeeze Play on Words

So...how about those New York Metropolitans? No...really. A pretty average team that stinks up the bottom of MLB year end and year out. However...occasionally, they can put together an amazing season and actually win a World Series or two ('69 and '86). I will always remember the moment when my original orange and blue team won game 6. I was at a friend's house in Coral Springs, a few blocks away from the 'rents. When the game finished, I walked home and there in the driveway was my Dad, anxiously awaiting my arrival. We hugged and laughed. I will never forget that moment. People all over this world have a passion for pulling for a favorite team albeit pro, college, fantasy, little league, etc...Then there are those people who think following a sports team is a useless waste of cells in the 'ol noggin. Gotta tell ya...if anything in life stirs your soul, makes you nervous, stomps on your gut, evokes a tear or pumps adrenaline so fierce in your body that you need to high five, holler, laugh, stomp your feet or hug your Dad in a moment of pure joy...I'll be its biggest fan.
