11/19/2006: "BIG HURT"

Since I got back to Asia, I lost touch with the whole Major League Baseball thing. Baseball plays an important role in my life in Toronto. Met a lot of good friends on the diamonds, and cracked a few nutz with the fastballs. Watching games on TV with buddies afterwork, etc etc.

I witnessed Toronto Blue Jays' dynasty years.

That was a long time ago, of course. But today, Blue Jays got my attention again as they signed "BIG HURT" Frank Thomas to their 2007 roster. The name Frank Thomas brings back memories. Yeah man, I dealt with baseball cards as well back then, so I had many of his rookie cards. Of course, at one point (for a long period of time), his RC dropped to be worth around $9usd! I think I bought in at $45usd... anyways.. The card collectors know what I'm talking about.

Well, I don't know how much pain BIG HURT can inflict today, but surely hope he can help the BJ shine again in 2007.

Good luck.
