Its almost every little leaguers dream to play baseball at the highest level. Very few players get to realize that dream. It is easy to criticize players and owners for the large sums of money they throw around for the "love" of the game. Its a punch in the gut for all of those players who didn't make it that would play for free. Baseball is a game meant to be played. The games may be won or lost but the important thing is they are fun. Adults have been taking the fun out of things since the invention of fun. They forget why they started playing in the first place. Money does not make things fun. Money makes things a business. The fun is what gives it the ability to be a business. The fun is what makes the people want to play, want to watch, and want to dream about playing in the Majors. If you want to make more money, make more fun. The Field of Dreams game is fun. Watch it or maybe go have a catch with a loved one. If you're lucky you might find out heaven isnt just in Iowa. You may also find out that the happiness you've been looking for has been right there waiting for you the entire time.
