AZ DiamondBacks Irish Heritage game

[OC Richard]

How come they never do "English Heritage" things?

Far more Americans have English last names than Irish ones.

That's easy, most American's already do that once a week.

Seriously though, probably because the food is bland and the fashion mags are already obsessed with the royal family.

Why is baseball in quotations marks?

Good question Sean, it was on the calender under promotions last week, and now it is not. I have sent a email to them asking why.
4 games Sept 16-19, all with the Dodgers but they are in AZ, not LA.

Richard, we have English heritage night every other friday. Happy hour at the George and Dragon pub, Phoenix... bloody good times.

Castle, put in quotes, cuz many of our over the pond brothers may not know what a Diamondback is?
Other than a snake, just like I couldn't tell you what sport the Club de l'Quest plays.

Still not up on the Dback web site, but here is the info through the the Phoenix ICC.

Why would you even consider wearing an American League jersey (especially Boston)??? Stick w/ the REAL baseball League and go National!!!

Not sure what color their home jersey is but their black w/ red would look cool too.

We didn't fight a war to free ourselves from Ireland.

That's not a slam against any present-day Englishmen. Just an opinion that the answer to the question lies in vestigial feelings from that time.
