  1. Unfortunately, I don't see things changing right away unless one of two things happen. One, either the players will have to refuse to play, citing potential hazardous conditions with the replacement refs, or two, the fans have to stay away until the regular refs are brought back. The owners are only going to respond when it hits them where it hurts - in the wallets.
  2. I'm glad we could choose more than one item, since I've always been a jock but like to endulge my creative side too.
  3. Happy Birthday Yetti! Go out and have some fun, you deserve it.
  4. HAPPY BIRTHDAY, STEVE! I hope it's a great one.
  5. I love the Falling Skies series. Great drama in a sci-fi theme. I can't wait to see how this works out after the Mass unit was treated so poorly by the so called civilian authorities.
  6. Happy Birthday, Dave. Hope it's a good one.
  7. Thank you for your kind words and I'm glad you enjoyed this story. Even though you had the feeling this might be autobiographical, it was mostly fiction, although a few parts were based on the lives of others. I'm sorry you didn't like the history lessons and I can understand your POV, but they have actually drawn a lot of constructive praise from readers, both on this site and others that I post on. Thank you very much for the feedback.

    Yes, Percy, it always feels good when the bad guys get their due.

    Thanks, RJ. Glad you enjoyed it.

    Thank you, Delores. Yes, it was sad that he died, but at least he got justice.
  11. Thanks, Mike. I'm glad you enjoyed this little seasonal offering.

    Chapter 1

    I'm not sure if that means you liked it or hated it. It was a twist that I was hoping people wouldn't foresee, but I hope that didn't make you dislike the story.
  13. First, Olympic Gold and now his first major. Andy Murray wins US Open Men's Singles Title. Congrats to Andy and all of his British supporters.
  14. Happy Birthday, Conner. Hope it's the best one yet.
  15. A cute take on the 'Ugly Duck' theme. From caterpillar to butterfly. It strikes a chord in us who started off as a polywog and turned into a frog.
  16. Andy, very well done. I really enjoyed your story, but I loved the surprise turnaround after the near disaster. For a minute, I wondered if it was James who had stopped it from happening, even though it would have been tough considering his size, but the face that it was Jake was not only more surprising, but more gratifying as well.
  17. Could there really be a loser? Nice job and interesting premise.
  18. Hell, I was born the day after Babe Ruth died. What does that make me? I guess I'll go play with my dinosaur.

    Take me home tonight

    KC, thanks for sharing such a beautiful and personal story. I'm glad you were so lucky and found such happiness. If only we were all so blessed.
  20. Enemies can become lovers. Very nicely done, Dark, but you left us wanting for more.
  21. In interesting follow-up to your previous story. He decided that the violence and retrobution had to stop sometime - yet it didn't actually end. Nice touch.

    Thanks, Dark. I do watch a lot of those crime shows, so they may have influenced my writing in some way.

    Chapter 1

    Thanks, Andy. It was a shame about what happened to Hoover, but great that he was able to get justice.
  24. Mike, this turned out to be a lovely coming out story, in that both sets of parents seemed to understand and approve. Unfortunately, that doesn't happen often enough.

    Chapter 1

    Yes, we all felt bad for Hoover, but might be even sadder is people who are incapable of taking responsibility for their own lives. Thanks for the feedback, Yetti One.
