  Hello sports fans,

  Boy do I love the people in and around Philadelphia.

  I'm just returning from the launch of my book in the City of
  Brotherly Love where I had opportunity to reflect back on all of
  the great experiences that people provided me during my
  baseball career.

  I have to begin by thanking some people that went out of
  their way to make the inauguration of If They Only Knew
  something I will always remember.

  First, thank you to John Conklin, Vice President of 
  Relationship Marketing at the Borgata Hotel Casino & Spa.
  This is a first class casino with professional world class
  people.  Also to Dave and Christine Smith for their most
  gracious hospitality.  It is sincerely appreciated. 

  I visited several great locations for book and autograph 
  signings as well.

  Thanks to Brian Cote and all of the staff at The FreshWorks of
  Port Richmond in Philadelphia.  I found great fans and friends
  there, and the food is terrific. 

  I made a stop at the Chester County Book and Music Store
  in West Chester to sign books, sign autographs and take
  photos.  Stop in to say hello to Thea and the staff and you
  can pick up a copy of my book.

  The book tour came to a grand conclusion with something I 
  enjoy… bartending!  Yes, Mitch Williams and I got back
  together one more time slinging drinks for SaVes4ALS, at
  McFadden’s at Citizens Bank Park.  Corporate Synergies
  provided their friends and clients a night to get together for this
  great cause.

  As Elton John once sang, "Philadelphia freedom I love you,
  yes I do."
