METS FORCE GAME 7


Well the New York Mets were in a must win situation last night and they came through with 4-2 victory over the Cardinals forcing tonight's game 7 in New York. I think the Mets will now go on any win the series and play Detroit in the World Series, the Cardinals were in the drivers seat but now I think they are going to be in the passenger seat. The Virginia Cavalier football team will be back in action tonight against North Carolina, if they don't win this game I don't think I will watch another UVA football game this season. The Cavaliers should have beaten Maryland last Saturday but had a monumental collapse. The Renegades continue to practice at the RC getting ready for this weekends preseason games, they have already cut 5 players and had 1 player walk out of camp, apparently he didn't like Brophy's coaching style. Don't forget that tomorrows football game is Homecoming when Colonial Heights play Prince George, I think Al will be there taking photos. I have posted a link below to some photos AL took at the mud bog at Virginia Motor Speedway. MICKEY

You got another NEW CAMERA!!! What kind? And, what did you do with the old one?

Al said...

i bought a used canon d1 mark 2, its their top of the line camera designed specifically for sports photography! if you notice the photog's at a uva football game or any professional sport 90% of them use this camera. donna gets the d20 and i'm probably going to donate the old one she uses now to highland church if they don't already have a digital camera

my old camera is like a richmond braves player, its a professional and to the average person the r brave player does the same job as a atlanta braves player. but to somebody that knows something about baseball they will notice the difference between the 2 players that makes one a r brave and the other an a brave. sutle differences but all the difference in the world!! i'm using a major league camera now!

great analogy for the baseball players/fans - something we can all understand.
