The Winning Season

All radios and TVs are tuned to the baseball game. Our beloved team is winning. Every day it is the same. They are playing on the home field to yet another sell-out. Home runs and stolen bases put the other team to rout. We're caught up in the magic. you have to love these guys. No inflated ego among them, they are heroes to our eyes. They're like a well-oiled fine machine. Every player does his part. Hardly a soul in our state hasn't taken them to heart. One hundred sixteen wins behind them in this baseball season. They're the winningest team in America. The World Series's within reason. But if, for all our confidence, they fail to win that prize, we've already had our money's worth and we all love those guys.

Are you an LSU fan, Joyce? They just won the college World Series. I love your zest for the game; and I share it too. But please, don't keep me in suspense, which team is your fave? OK, you gave me a hint, so I'll just have to google the "winningest team in America" to find out. Excellent write! Love, Carolyn
