I like your ball field Ralph! I have pretty much given up on real baseball (too slow, too much greed, too much cheating, too much ........) that said I love the game itself and play Baseball Mogul on my computer all the time. My franchise is in it's 11th year (of game time, about 3 years of real time ) and has won 3 WS so far. Yeah I know, I need to get a life and spend less time playing computer games and playing with trains!

It's going to be a rough year to be a Yankees fan. The Mets made a great pick up with Granderson in their lineup. Once they bolster their bullpen, they will be a serious contender. I love the ball field scene on your layout.

"It's a small white ball that two teams of 11 men on skates try to get in 18 holes placed on "greens"."
However they have to do this while trying to avoid throwing a gutter ball. But if they do they can make up for it by kicking a field goal are shooting a three pointer.

Don't forget the rule that allows them to hit the ball with one of those hand-held things with a lot of strings on them as long as they're close to the net. They can also use one of those long wooden cue sticks to push the ball into a pocket in order to score points. You do realize how complicated this game can get with all these rules?

You guys forgot about throwing the ball at an opposite team member forcing him to leave the ice rink.

Double point bonus for the guy riding the Quidditch Broom. Most important, three of a kind beats a pair.

Yeah, and there was the play of all plays where this little boy got on his knees and flipped the little glass ball past that guy with the big stick and ugly mask on, to score the winning run.
