Excellent show except for the two women who sang....horrible!!!!! I think there was another one but before I found the game on TV...lucky me. The one in the red dress was the WORST!!! There “oughta” be a law - LOL I’d take listening to Roseanne Barr any day over those two....
I ignored the propaganda stuff sounded like an advertisement and it has some weird religious sounding like the word “permanence” as opposed to nostalgia. Reminds me of the “Olympic Movement” crap. Ray Charles was great. The kids on bikes was interesting as i did not make the connection to the movie. And the guy with the Harper shirt was hanging out with Marsh.
I watched (only) that part of game...it was great.
IT WAS INCREDIBLE LIVE! mlb did America proud!
Field Of Dreams...
James Earl Jones:
People will come, Ray.
They’ll come to Iowa for reasons they can’t even fathom.
They’ll turn up your driveway,
not knowing for sure why they’re doing it.
They’ll arrive at your door as innocent as children,
longing for the past.
“Of course, we won’t mind if you look around,” you’ll say.
“It’s only twenty dollars per person.”
They’ll pass over the money without even thinking about it.
For it is money they have and peace they lack.
And they’ll walk out to the bleachers,
and sit in shirt-sleeves on a perfect afternoon.
They’ll find they have reserved seats
somewhere along one of the baselines,
where they sat when they were children and cheered their heroes.
And they’ll watch the game,
and it’ll be as if they’d dipped themselves in magic waters.
The memories will be so thick,
they’ll have to brush them away from their faces.
People will come, Ray.
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 — it’s a part of our past, Ray.
It reminds us of all that once was good, and it could be again.
Ohhhhhhhh, people will come, Ray.
People will most definitely come.
