ive got to face it.

i was sitting and watching the last 3 outs of the yankees game tonight and after 85 years of history in the making yankee stadium was put to rest. tonight was the last time anyone will ever see a baseball game. all the way back to babe ruth hit the first homer to beat the red sox 4-1 to the greatest of all time muhammad ali defended his championship in a match or when or recent memories that i will remember like when aaron boone hit a walk off homer to beat the red sox in a thrilling fashion. i watched tonight's game and my god the memories in this stadium astounds me.

now granted im no yankee fan. i hate them actually lol. my favorite memory is when my marlins won the 03 world series on game 6 in yankee stadium when people said that we couldnt do it. so you can see im not yankee fan. when i watched this game though i had to show respect though. so much great pride and history. i mean you got the babe, mickey mantle, yogi berra, joe dimaggio, and hell even derek jeter on present day greatness played for this team. it makes you sit back and respect and "aw" at there greatness. i mean for god sake they won 26 world series!!!!! no matter if you love or hate them i realized tonight... you've got to respect them.

it also made me realize tonight how much we should value our memories and take mental notes and pictures of things that we cherished most in our lives so that way we can share them with our kids, grand kids and hell if we are lucky you may get to do it again with your great grand kids. im going to make myself a vow after tonight to do this more often. whether its the simple things like a memory of two love birds kissing in a cabana, when your dad and you went to a football game together, or just a memory of a group of friends for years going to prom. you only get to live life once. make sure you make it memorable and be sure to share them memories. =]
