Major League 3. And before someone says something, NO, that movie is not Major League 3.

Most of all, I really want to see that movie get made before Bob Uecker dies.

I think they could use the setting of an old-timers day to being back Ricky Vaughn, Jake Taylor, Roger Dorn, Pedro Cerano and Willie Mays Hayes to spring training.

Let a little tension develop between today’s coddled 3 outcomes types and the real ball players of old. The Indians have gone all in on the season with a record payroll.

It would be comedy gold to have both Omar Epps and Wesley Snipes show up claiming to be Hayes

Let Cerrano be a Julio Franco type player who is still playing pro ball in Tibet while looking for enlightenment.

On a challenge, Vaughn faces a couple of the young stars and strikes them out with the knuckleball.

Skip to the All-Star Break, the Indians are in last place, attendance is down and they have a massive fire sale and fire most of the coaching staff. Bring the old crew back.

Sequel with her now grown up following in his footsteps would make for a good story

Let Cerrano be a Julio Franco type player

Mike Ryner, AKA "The Old Gray Wolf", formerly of The Ticket in Dallas, called Franco "The Keeper of the Gold". Julio wore lots of gold chains and drove Ferrari's, Lamborghini's and other exotic cars.

Dallas athletes, just like everyone else with a little money, like to drive around in style. Remember the day after the Mavs won an NBA Championship, when Jason Terry showed up at Overseas Motors to buy a new Bentley in his Mavericks robe?
