May God continue to bless you as you will fight your battle the rest of your life. I know you will win this battle as long as you continue to put your faith and life in the hands of God.

My comment is that Al R. is an idiot.

“Sad story…..”

It’s a poignant, deep story with a promising beginning, a potentially tragic next chapter and an inspiring ascent ever since.

I was asked to review Hamilton’s book, Beyond Belief, by Hachett Book Group, which published the book. The review can be viewed at: http://www.rotorob.com/2008/10/08/reviewing-beyond-belief-by-josh-hamilton/

Too bad he’s not going to be able to help the Rangers until they get some pitching.

Read this SI story and admire a kid that wants to turn their life around.

Looks like this kid is doing the right thing, going in the right direction, with the right people.

THanks for sharing his story with us Billy.

I miss that Texas Rangers squad. I also miss Jeff Bagwell, Caig Biggio, and Ken Caminiti later in the Astros Enron Field….err…Minute Maid Park early days.

That is a sad story to squander such an opportunity. Hopefully he does indeed have his life back on track.

But ah Arlington, where I spent my High School years at Lamar High School

I actually lived practically across the street from the Stadium in Arlington from 1983 through 1987. Days when games were scheduled were always “a lot of fun” when Stadium Drive(which in my street, Holt, intersected) was packed with folks going to the game

But it was nice to be able to just cross the street to Six Flags. I had an enormous 4 story tree house in the woods nearby(now a subdivision) that you could see from the Six Flags “derrick” observation deck.

P.S.

More “small world”, did you know that there is an “East Sanford Street” that intersects Stadium Drive in Arlington?
