HI

My Dad took me to my first game in 69 to see the Senators.  I was hooked from the get go with Baseball.  However, in 71 my Senators went a way.  

What can I say, this Baseball Addict became an (OH MY GOSH!) an Orioles fan.  I had to have my baseball fix and the Orioles were the closest team.  This was the PRE-Angelos era.  

I never gave up hoping for a DC team though.  I even have a Dave Winfield baseball card, in a San Diego Cap, with Washington on Top and National on the bottom.  I supported Bill Collins in his fight to get a team for years.  

Once an O's fan, always a Senators fan!  During my tenure as an Os fan I've seen great players come and go.  One of them is Cal Ripken.  I am really an admirer of his and all his efforts to promote the game of Baseball.  Thus my screen name,  I think he's just great!

I Love the NATS now and have a 20 game plan.

Anyhow I love this new place to post!  GO NATS! :D
