Passed a few years back.

Re: Community thread
hey guys, sorry for my lengthy absence. you guys know about my surgery which went well, but now my mother's dying. I have been travelling up and down between my home here in Oregon to my mom's in LA, just came back and going back down on 4th of July weekend again, hoping she is still alive for me to see her 1 more time before she goes.
also, when I was watching every game, we were losing almost all of it. now I haven't been watching and the team is doing well. this damn baseball Jinx-illogic has made a mental block on top of that not to watch games for the sake of the team.

Re: Community thread
thanks, dudes. but she has been battling cancer for a very long time, and in fact was given 6 months to live about 4 years ago. so she has beaten many odds already. but today my old man says since my last visit, she has been deteriorating rapidly and hardly can move out of the bed anymore. eating has become a major choir.
always tell your mothers how much you love them, they won't always be around, you know. I was actually raised by my maternal grandmother, and having watched her pass away long ago, I have learned this fact that those who loved you the most, won't wait around for you to return the favor.

ehhhhh f it.

Re: Community thread
Sorry Neddy. Even when it ends a tough struggle, it's still hard to watch loved ones leave.
Condolences.
I've been lurking and watching an occasional game, but I've been over-extended lately. Stayed in Florida with the family for about 10days (Not Disney) and met a Cubs fan there when we were playing them.
It's funny, when I travel with my Dodgers hat I always meet either fellow Dodger fans, or Cubs fans... Those two fanbases seem to be everywhere and are the most likely to come up and talk to me about the hat.

Nice. I live in Orange County as well so it'll be cool to have a board member living close by.

Daughter just got accepted to college... First choice, first application... Total long-shot school...
What do you tell a kid like that?... Too easy... I've been preaching backup plans all summer and fall, and not getting caught up in one school.
Downside is she didn't pick a cheap first option... But still quite proud.

Tell her to be a Gaucho or you won't support her through undergrad.
