The Good Seats
I've spent most of the year enjoying the Nationals from the Upper Deck. I've sat amongst the diehard baseball fans who have the common sense not to spend their hard earned dollar on the law firm lobbyist seats. Tonight I got to sit in the law firm/lobbyist seat. Alright - those are pretty good seats.
Last night I took a free ticket from my friend Erika and we sat in the mezzanine.
Well it was cool to see Barry Bonds hit a homerun, the view doesn't quite compare to...oh...I don't know...
Seeing Mr. Player of the Game Himself Rick Short up close & all personal.
Seeing Dutch take a swing is pretty sweet too.
And of course -
The Manishewitz Sweetness that is Victory.
I got phonecalls from both my buddy Matt with whom I regularly attend games & from my boss Louis - asking me to procure them free Hot Dogs. Yes, they were free - but nothing was going to make me leave my seat.
I attended these games with my Sister's Father-In-Law (alright, so he's a bigtime Republican who referred to this blog as "one of those places that accuse Bush of creating hurricanes" which I denied (I will however blame the failing levees on him...)) It did go to show that here in Washington, one thing we can all agree on is the Nationals.

I'd watch out, if I were you. Maybe bringing baseball to DC was part of a complex plot by Republicans to lure you to the dark side.
