An honest assessment of Friday night baseball

ScalpEm.com promised you different takes on everything, so DIFFERENT is what we are going to give you. Instead of giving you the typical run down of the evening, I thought it might be prudent to give you, the reader, some other aspects of the game. So to follow a classic format (from my short days at NoleVillage), here are my three points of the game (which are never really three points)!’,'1.’Cane fans are an interesting bunch. You’ve got to give them credit for coming out in force and in day-glo orange. Personally, I did not enjoy the moronic ‘Nole fan in the third base bathroom that tried to pick a fight with an overly ‘roided ‘Cane. Although, in all fairness, aren’t ‘Canes taught that you DO NOT take the urinal next to some one. You leave space and wait until something else opens up!

2.Stephen Drew is a stud. Those two bombs he crushed were a beautiful site, and it was certainly nice to see him looking healthy. It is a sad fact that he will be out of here next year, but I hope there are $$$ signs in his future. And, let’s hope that the injury bug stays away from him.

3.Personally, I enjoyed “Seminole Idol.” Mike Martin did quite a rendition of “Take Me Out To The Ballgame.” I think maybe he has a signing career in his future.

Bonus Points:
1.That deli over by the stadium makes an AWESOME sausage burrito! It is so big and heavy that I think you can knock someone out with it. If you have not tried it yet, head over there A.S.A.P. Besides, you cannot beat a $4.00 pitcher.

2.It was nice to hear a few murmurs at the game about ScalpEm.com and to talk with a few curious people. Mainly it was to the effect of, “ScalpEm.com, what’s that?” Evidently my hat paid off. Hopefully the debut of the ScalpEm.com baseball jersey will attract some more attention for our humble little site.

P.S. Congrats to the Seminole baseball team on a hard fought and exciting victory!
