"Home" by Ken Burns

It's a beautifully designed game. Timeless, but always changing.

For more than 150 years, baseball has been a mirror of the complicated country that gave it birth.

. . where the objective, always, is to come home.

Home, where no asks where you come from or who you voted for.

Home, where all season long, we congregate to cheer and plead, laugh and cry in the magnificent cathedrals of our game –

It is the place we always come back to – home.

the song is

Geoff Zanelli, Hans Zimmer & Blake Neely - Honor (Main Title Theme from "The Pacific")

The quality of this video is not that good but the message is great. Very inspiring and very moving. I posted it on my facebook page and got a lot of positive comments. Have none of you ever seen Field of Dreams or The Natural or For the Love of the Game?? Baseball is a romantic and sentimental sport. Full of tradition. And to mudandbleach, it's nothing like George Carlin's brilliant comedy routine other than the fact that they both mention "home". Not even close to a "complete rip off".

@Chiareality No kidding. I'm just glad I don't see any signs of the Pirates in this stupid thing.

I like it, even if it completely rips off George Carlin's Football/Baseball routine.
