Verse of The Day

“ Blessed is the man who does not walk in the counsel of the wicked or stand in the way of sinners or sit in the seat of mockers. But his delight is in the law of the LORD, and on his law he meditates day and night.” (Psalm 1:1-2)

Torii Hunter: The man behind the smile

KANSAS CITY, Mo. (BP)—Before a game in Kansas City recently, Los Angeles Angels centerfielder Torii Hunter stood at his locker, chatting with a reporter, while exhibiting that big friendly smile baseball fans are accustomed to seeing from him.
      On the surface, Hunter has every reason to be smiling.
      He won his seventh consecutive Rawlings Gold Glove Award with the Minnesota Twins last season. The MLB Players Association named him the 2007 Marvin Miller Man of the Year (an award given to the player whose on-field and off-field performances most inspire others to a higher level of achievement). He signed a five-year, $90 million contract with the Angels before the 2008 season started. And in February, he was inducted into the Arkansas Sports Hall of Fame — the 50th anniversary class.
