Phoenix Rising Day at Cubs Park, with benefits March 10, 2015 Laura Sellers-Earl Flip ponders the Padres lineups, especially No. 7 Middlebrooks, who we have a signed baseball from. Flip’s calculating his retirement plans. Daddy Earl at the Cubs-Padres game today. Great time, even though Carl wound up working for more than two hours up in the mezzanine on a techie phone call. Great seats right behind home base, surrounded by Cubs fans. Go Padres! Daddy Earl at the Cubs-Padres game today.

Flip at the Cubs-Padres game today. Great time, great seats. Good section-mates. The Chicago-style dog with all the fixins. Daddy Earl enjoys his seat behind home plate and away from the sun. Flip sports our beer guy Mark’s signed and numbered baseball card. Collect and save! Photo bomb! The family that plays together … Baseball is over for Flip. He’s ready for football with his new Seahawks helmet from Daddy Earl. St. Francis of Aflipsi. The animals are not afraid. Not sure what Flip thinks, though.
