Cheers from England!
Who is "Brandon Wood" ... a strkier for Manchester United? Or was he
once considered an American baseball prospect?
Hope all is well. We had a great trip over and are loving Cambridge.
On Saturday, we leave for three weeks in Europe. I'm not certain I'll
have internet access there, so I'm turning over the Klein Nine keys to
Uncle Doug. (Only reserve/active moves -- no trades, Brad!). Here's
hoping that Big Tex is sitll in the AL when I get back!!
Hope all is well ...
