Yes. We are there too. I'm sure the regulars did a double-take when the sistah and her mount trotted onto the field. Oh, well. It was comin'. Oh, and by the by. This 19 year old at Cornell University was named player of the year. for 2016. And she's from Philly. There seems to be two spellings to her first name. I'm not certain which is correct (Cherie or Shariah), but she is a winner either way.

Don't be mad.
