That's what I said to my non-baseball fan friend who was visiting today during the game and yes she's the one who INSISTS on calling everytime they are on

He made me do this today

You need to give her a written copy of the Spring Training Game Schedule! No calls or visits during these times on these days!!!!!

Actually, I told her today that she gets a pass today but ONLY because it's ST, once the real deal starts, she is NOT TO BUG ME DURING GAMES!! I had to show her a few pics of the man/boy/fishie so she'd understand :haha:

DAMN IT BOYS!!!
