My buddy Brando invited me over again today for another day of Illini football and APBA. Illinois is taking Ohio State at Memorial Stadium and we’ll be watching it on his big screen.
What teams will we be playing? I asked him earlier if he wanted me to pick the teams and he said “I’ll pick the teams”. Okaaay, maybe he didn’t like my choice of the 1982 Braves and Rangers the last time we played. Just heard last night that he’s chosen the 1930 Cubs and Dodgers. I have the Cubs. The inside joke with Brando is that he’s a Dodger fan… a Brooklyn Dodger fan. This should be fun.
Remember Brando, Dazzy Vance can pitch only one game for you but Hack Wilson plays every day.
As 2011’s economy mirrors 1930’s economy it is all together fitting and proper.
