I WENT TO THE BIB GAME LAST NIGHT




Well I went see Colonial Heights play last night in the BIB tournament against the Dinwiddie Americans and it turned out to be a very good game with Colonial Heights falling in extra innings 11-10. CH was trailing 8-2 going into the bottom of the 6th inning before rallying to tie the game at 8 and send the game into extra innings. In the extra frame Dinwiddie got 3 runs while CH was only able to push across 2 runs and pick up an 11-10 win over CH. It was a very hot humid night at the stadium and there were a few rain showers that started just as the game ended. Well Brett Favre is no longer a Green Bay Packer, he was traded late last night to the New York Jets. I just hope Green Bay brass know what they are doing because if they have a bad year the fans are going to turn on front office. Also the 2008 summer Olympics officially start on Friday. My PAIN index remains about the same as it was yesterday, my right shoulder is a bit sore. It looks like some mild weather is on its way for the weekend. MICKEY
