The Best Things In Life

Why is it that most of the time a horrible thing will bring something good to mind. You know like when it rains and afterwards there is a rainbow and the flowers are in bloom. The band Filter had a great line from a song "The best things in life aren't for free" and they might be right in saying that. Thinking of that and keeping in mind that I love tradition and baseball something happened Monday that brought back one of the best traditions ever. The singing of "Take Me Out To The Ballgame" is sung at every ballpark across America during the 7th inning stretch but Wrigley Field in Chicago does it the best.

Harry Cary sang it every game with the fans and since his passing they have had many superstars in various careers sing the song. Ozzy Osbourne you could not understand, Jeff Gordon called it Wrigley Stadium instead of Field and Mike Golic of Mike and Mike belted the words louder than anyone. But on Monday, Memorial Day, a true American icon took the stage; Mr. T! Yes THE Mr. T who played Clubber Lang in the Rocky movies and was a part of the A Team Check out the video: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=QqXEIwR9tx0
