Tuesdays with Smitty: The Thanksgiving Edition

November 25, 2008 by Smitty 6 Comments

Well it is that time of year again. The leaves are gone...or on the ground, snow has made a brief appearance and is close to staying for a couple of months.

October 28, 2008 by Smitty 22 Comments

Ladies and Gentlemen - tonight is the first edition of the Tuesday with Smitty mailbag.  This mailbag seems to have a World Series theme to it.
