congrats, kid

Anybody else find something got in their eye when Griff came back to Seattle last summer? I got all PMS emotional about the whole thing. I blame my old lady...

I did. I went to one of the Cincy games last year and I felt like a little kid.

Was it the one with the pregame ceremony?

I think I went to the second game of the series. In fact, I'm sure of that since I remember getting there early for his batting practice and wanting with every fiber of my being to catch a fly ball. I don't care if I am in my 20's...I was standing there with a glove on, like everyone else, and I felt exactly like I did in 1991 when I was there early at the Kingdome hoping for the same thing.

I went to all three games last year. Such a great time, I even saw my Dad tear up when JR was talking at the ceremony.
