Can't see local game? Watch Cubs on WGN
A lot of people probably missed a great opening day in Chicago. Ernie Banks was honored with a statue at Wrigley Field. Along with Mr. Cub was Hank Aaron, one of the greatest ballplayers, and two other Hall of Famers. If anyone thinks baseball is dead, tune in a Chicago Cubs game. Fans there are one of a kind. I congratulate Chicago TV station WGN for coverage of this event and the pregame ceremonies.
Much has been said about racial divides and tensions. There was none at the opening day's ceremonies. And what a wonderful, refreshing change that was. We need more of this in our messed-up world. Maybe we need to get back to basics, buy a ticket to a local ball game, sit down with a hot dog, and root for the home team.
If you aren't able to take in a local game, join me in tuning in a Cubs game in the comfort of your home, courtesy of WGN. I truly hope this is "their year.''

1908 was their year, M.E. Not this year.
