Greek Team

Are they still together or have they all disbanded and gone they separate ways...If anybody has information please respond. I want to hook up with one of them..Possibly have them treat me to lunch...LOL

One thing Alexander Cremidan recalls about his last trip to Greece, when he visited relatives as a 7-year-old, is that he did not see any signs of baseball.

"They don't play baseball at any level over there," said Cremidan, a UCSD senior pitcher of Greek ancestry. "This is all new to them."

That's why Cremidan is anticipating an exciting return to the Isles in the summer of 2004 as a member of the first Greek Olympic baseball team. It will be one of those priceless opportunities for him and 19 other American ballplayers of Greek heritage to be on hand for that first pitch in Athens.

The first official function for the Greek national baseball team is scheduled for July 23-25 at Camden Yards. Peter G. Angelos, owner of the Baltimore Orioles, has made a major effort to put Greece on the baseball map, as has Orioles scout Rob Derksao, who has scoured the U.S. collegiate ranks to find qualified players.

After a series of workouts in Baltimore, the Greek team is to fly to Budapest, Hungary, for the European Baseball Championship Tournament (July 27-Aug. 4).

I last spotted them a few years ago about 26 miles from the Oregon
coast. They did not say which direction they were headed.

trying to by a gyro at Mcdonalds. I know he was a team member because he had a few black chips in his pocket while settling for a big mac. Sorry cant tell what casino the chips came from.

It was my two year old daughter.
She is so cute when she counts down a deck. It still takes her 30 seconds using hi-lo, but is improving daily.
She knows basic strategy and has learned several deviations, but still has a long way to go. I plan to put her in disguise next month, and use her as a spotter.
