The Josh Hamilton documentary.

There were probably 20 times during MLB Network's Josh Hamilton documentary, which aired tonight and which I just finished watching, that I tucked away some sort of reaction that I planned to sit here and write down after it ended. A couple times during the hour-long program I thought to myself, "Wish I had a pen to jot some of this down." Each time the next thought, instantly, was, "Glad I don't." It would have been a mistake to water down the experience by taking notes, instead of just absorbing. And it would be senseless to try and remember it all now and make some lame attempt to put it into words. There were lots of chills watching it, both the uplifting kind and the other kind, and, like Hamilton always seems to do, as naturally and effortlessly as he swings and runs and throws, he and his story and his ability and his character made me proud to be a fan of him, of our team, of this game. It's an insanely great show, and I can't recommend it enough. =========================================================== To join the free Newberg Report mailing list so you can get e-mail deliveries of every edition of the newsletter, daily minor league game recaps, and frequent Newberg Report News Flashes, go to www.newbergreport.com and click the "Mailing List" link on the top menu bar.
