This Old TV Theme Song was played at Angels Stadium a lot when I grew up in Anaheim, California. Anyone remember Shay Torrent (Organist, 1967 to 1985)?
 
 
Other songs People liked from Shay Torrent were "The Mexican Hat Dance" and "The Saints Go Marching In."

He has all but killed Angels Baseball. It is not the franchise I grew up with in The OC. Arte Moreno is a good man, but he is a terrible owner. Replacing Anaheim with Los Angeles did far more harm then good.

I think he will go into the HOF as an Angel. I don't see him going in as a Cardinal because of the way St. Louis treated him when it was time to leave for Anaheim. He set some major records playing for The Angels like hitting his 600th Homer.

The Mar A Lago Raid was also a feeble attempt to force Donald Trump's Hand to not run for President in 2024. Had he announced that he was not going to run for President in 2024, the Mar A Lago Raid never would have happened.

The movie star who took home an Oscar for his portrayal of a Vietnam Vet returning home, has turned out to be quite an American Patriot. He recently went on the air stating that Joe Biden needs to be impeached. Do I agree with him? When Biden made his rash and unwise withdrawal of the troops in Afghanistan, he left billions of dollar's worth of U.S. Military Equipment and Top-Secret Information behind in Afghanistan which is now in the hands of the Taliban. That is Espionage, which is the absolute worse form of Treason. Also, he has been putting illegals down at the border on planes to various airports throughout the country at the expense of the Taxpayers.

That's okay. An Admin from the Facebook Group, "Angels Fan Heaven" answered my question. The stadium hasn't been purchased yet. 

The picture is a reminder that I'm not from Orange County so there are things I wouldn't know that people from OC would know. Most of the people here are from OC so they would already know the answer. 

Here in Colorado Springs, Gas was under $2 per Gallon while Donald Trump was still in the White House. When Joe Biden took office in January 2021, he shut down the pipeline and that's when Gas Prices started to go up. Today, the price of fuel is right about $4 per gallon in the Colorado Springs Area. Even though that is ridiculously high, I do understand that there are cities and areas where the prices per gallon are between $5 and $7 per gallon. My cousin posted this picture on Facebook of the price of gas in Cambria, California.

Dave Kingman finished his career in 1986 with 442 Homeruns and 1210 RBI's. He didn't just hit those homers over the fence either. Back then, those were Hall of Fame Records. Here's the thing. He also struck out one out of every three at bats, his height (6'6") caused him to make errors in the field, and he was a sociopath and hard to get along with. He mistreated a lot of sportswriters (who do the HOF voting). They made a pact to vote King Kong off the ballot his very first year of eligibility, and they did. That's okay. But Kong hit those homeruns UNDER HIS OWN POWER (Some off stadium property), none of this doping up and hulking out on PED's year after year like Bonds, Sosa, Canseco, McGuire, Clemens, Palmiero, Alomar, etc. So, if a power hitter is voted off the ballot because he's a jerk, even though he is clean, fine. But, don't immortalize cheaters who didn't set Homerun Records under their own power and devices. Ortiz is okay because he only tested positive once in 2003. Most of his records were set under his own power and devices.

This 19th Century Old West Campfire Song was popularized by the 'Singing Cowboy,' Gene Autry, who brought Western Folk Music, PLUS the American League in Major League Baseball to the West Coast, and eventually to Anaheim California (My hometown). Pacifico, a street near Anaheim Stadium, was later renamed "Gene Autry Way."

Ortiz did test positive for PED's one year, granted (2003). That tells me that the rest of the time he was setting records under his own power and  devices. LaDanian Tomlinson of the Chargers Football Team once bought Color T.V. Sets for several Fire Victims in Southern California, and nobody told him to perform that philanthropic act, he did that entirely on his own as he was a philanthropist, and a good Man on and off the field. Big Papi did stuff like that too, and was quite the philanthropist as well--a good Christian man on and off the field. Despite the one year he tested positive, I could understand why he would be given a pass. Bonds and Clemens  were continually doping up and hulking out on PED's, and then continually lying through their teeth about it. Jose Canseco has been tweeting about Ortiz and protesting his being enshrined. He has had a burr under his saddle because he wasn't enshrined, but voted off the ballot the first year. Canseco was out of line, because he, like Bonds and Clemens were "Perpetual Cheaters," Ortiz was not. David "Big Papi" Ortiz belongs in the Hall of Fame.
