    It's just a week away for the Braves.

    I've never been able to go to ST before

    I've always wanted to go.

    Maybe next year when I'll finally have vacation time.

    I was supposed to go to Ft, Myers, FL to see the Red Sox and Twins but have to stay here for me knee. Got a buddy that lives down there.

    Pads,
    What kind of "special instructors" have you met? Winfield, Templeton or any of the old Padre greats?

    Last I heard Garry was still managing a GBL team, and the last time I saw him he and Rickey Henderson were jawing at each other at SDSU during a game......it was without question one of the more entertaining moments of that game.

    I've met quite a few players and FO people, but all for reasons that don't belong in here......but as for having brief conversations in the general areas, I've spoken with Glenn Hoffman at length, Tony Petricca, I've been able to talk with Darren Balsey many times next to the bullpen work area.........Wow I'd have to go back through my photo album, wifey takes lots of shots for me, to see who else......but off the top of my head those are a few guys I've been lucky enough to be able to chat with.

    I got KT to sign my koozie does that count

    I am rehabbing my knee after my surgeries and still a long way away from getting back to normal. Can't ride in a plane and definitely can't sit still in a car that long.

    HA! Which one? I had three of them. Things are much better than they were and physical therapy is going good too. Knee is still sore and won't be back to my old self until August or later. Its just hard for me because I am so impatient and try to do too much at one time. Torn ACLs aren't fun, just ask Milton Bradley
