It is now Football Season

I love word play and one of my favorites is baseball related. Spoonerisms occur when you flip flop the first letters of two words. How's this: former Baltimore Oriole centerfielder Paul Blair. His Spoonerized name stated his occupation. Paul Blair, the ballplayer. Wonder if his parents had dreams of a major leaguer when they named him? Unlikely.

I established this blogsite in order to be able to comment on the Rex Parker blog which deals with the daily New York Times crossword puzzle. Whether I ever use it to post comments remains to be seen.
