People Will Come

This is from one of my favorite movies:

“The one constant through all the years, Ray, has been baseball. America has rolled by like an army of steamrollers. It’s been erased like a blackboard, rebuilt, and erased again. But baseball has marked the time. This field, this game, is a part of our past, Ray. It reminds us of all that once was good, and it could be again. Oh, people will come, Ray. People will most definitely come.”

And yes if you are crazy enough to dream, to carry that vision to the end, people will come. 

Notes:

  • The best place to see a game in America; yes people do come. Title post taken at the Dodgers vs Cardinals in mid-July. Sadly, the bad guys won.
  • The movie is based on the book Shoeless Joe.
