We are fine. My uncle's health declined over the last couple of years and he was ready to go. It really was a blessing. Unfortunately, none of us will get out of this thing alive... :smile: Thanks for the kind words. We are fine. My uncle’s health declined over the last couple of years and he was ready to go.

Unfortunately, life is always going to end in death and no way to avoid it. I hope your family will be soothed by the memories of the good times. That's how my family always gets through it. Lakers win by 2. Not a pretty win but its in the books. I hope Ol'Ned is taking advantage of this quiet time and talking to A.Dunn's agent. I'm really tired of BorAss and disappointed with Manny and his lack of effort to reach out to the only team that apparently wants him back. The realization has to have hit him by now. 2 yrs./$45 mil is the best he's going to get, accept it. Not too impressed or impacted with Estes, it's only a minor-league contract. He's not going to be a factor. I've checked out Claudio Vargas a little closer and I feel he could be a dark-horse factor for us this year. He'll replace Park and his numbers last year, in limited appearances, show he's capable. Look at his H/IP ratios, WHIP and BA against RH. Pretty good, if he's used as a situational reliever it could pay off. Here's my favorite lawyer joke: Q: Why does New Jersey have all the toxic waste dumps and California have all the lawyers? A: Because New Jersey got first pick. Mark, you have my sincerest condolence. Unfortunately, life is always going to end in death and no way to avoid it. I hope your family will be soothed by the memories of the good times. That’s how my family always gets through it.
