    Since I have your attention - Lets Make 2 lists - List 1 If you compared a team to cigars what would it be - (Give me 2)
    NY Yankees = Opus X 
    Pittsburg Pirates = Gurkhas
    ETC....

    List 2 Your line up and batting order with cigars

    Catcher - Padron (Consistent with a strong arm)
    First - New World (Big, slow, but packs a punch)
    Second - Montecristo (Good lead-off hitter, not overly strong)
    Short Stop - La Palina Black Label (Always in the right place at the right time)
    Third - Eiroa The First 20 Years (Great Hitter)
    Left Field - La Gloria Cubana Serie R (Clean-Up Hitter at a bargain)
    Center Field - Intemperance Whiskey Rebellion (Solid)
    Right Field - Black Label Last Rites (Big Hitter, little slow)
    Pitcher - Man O' War Skull Crusher
    Relief Pitcher - Sancho Panza Double Maduro
    Closer - Oliva Serie V (Lights Out, but sneaky)

    Does the forum ever do a fantasy baseball league? If not, we should ;)

    Seattle Mariners. - Torano
    Consistently good, middle of the pack, just not great.
    Always entertaining, but doesn't really stand out above the rest.

    Money can't buy happiness, but it can buy cigars and that's close enough.

    Shohei Ohtani has a perfect game through six innings right now if anyone cares.

    Robbed out of it by a 7th inning hit.
    Pretty impressive for a second start in major leagues.

    And now we've got Bartolo Colon representing for big men everywhere with a perfect game heading into the 8th inning against the Astros on ESPN. It's quite hysterical.

    Still won't be as great as him circling the bases in four minutes after hitting a home run.

    I told my wife to have a girls weekend this spring but failed to mention I’m taking my daughter to Dodger Stadium to catch a game
    Went today and going back tomorrow. I'm lucky enough to be a few miles from the Stadium

    Love me some Baseball, is there anyone else out there crazy about America's pastime? What are your favorite teams? I have a few: Giants, Reds, Red Sox, and Mariners + anyone playing the Cubs.
    If I had enough money, I’d build me a baseball stadium and let people enjoy their cigars and pipes while they watched the game.

    I can remember a time when smoking was common place in stadiums.
    Fenway park watching Carlton Fisk and the Yaz and the smell of cigars, pipes and cigarettes throughout the stadium.
    They can't take those memories.

    Sure is nice that the season has started up. Looking forward to a few trips to the ball park this season. I’m sure my Dodgers will find a way to lose again!
