Cartoon of the Day: "Play Ball!"

The News-Herald - February 17

There's no more welcome sign of the coming spring than the phrase "pitchers and catchers report." Lakeland may be 1,170 miles from Detroit via I-75, but just knowing the pitchers and catchers are there stretching and getting ready for spring training warms millions of hearts in the metro Detroit area. Tigers fans, it won't be long until, "... the voice of the turtle is heard in the land!"
That's the Point!

Cartoon of the Day: The Boys of Summer

The News-Herald - February 16

The Boys of Summer, the ones stretching and working out the kinks in Lakeland right now, are inspiring The Boys of Summer, the ones stuck here in hip-deep snow and polar temperatures. There will be summer nights on the back porch, listening to the ballgame on the radio and sipping iced tea ... there will be weekend matinee games in the baking sun at Comerica Park ... and there WILL be a time when "... the voice of the turtle is heard in the land." Even if it is a little muffled by the snow!
That's the Point!
