1) You're in Phoenix where it's 80 degrees on March 4th and you're preparing for two LABR League auctions, held on back-to-back nights against some fun industry competition.
2) When you're flying Northwest and the pilots reach a contract settlement rather than go on strike and cancel your Phoenix trip.
3) When BlackBerry reaches a settlement, thus allowing you to keep the CrackBerry with you to e-mail your wife, kids and customers from the road.
4) When you're watching baseball games on March 4th and your CrackBerry keeps vibrating everytime you get a new NFBC signup, which happened four times during yesterday's 10-1 Angels' win over the Padres. (I made Zaleski buy a drink each time, which was fun!)
5) When you go to a spring training game and the Angels let every top prospect play a few innings, so you can see Brandon Wood, Jered Weaver, Howie Kendrick, Jeff Mathis, Kendry Morales and Mike Napoli.
6) When your wife agrees that this is a good trip for you because you've been working so hard!
7) When your kids are healthy (nothing's more important) and you don't have to worry about them once you leave on a trip.
8) When the NFL and NFLPA extend their labor agreement for six more years. (Okay, this hasn't happened yet but I'm on a roll and I think they'll do that on Sunday; at least I'm hoping it happens.)
9) When Brett Favre returns for one more year!
(It's happening boys, trust me.)10) And Life Is Good When the NFBC main event is exactly two weeks away and you know you're going to have a full house! Wow, what a season this is going to be folks. And we all know that future years are just going to get better and better. I'm a proud, proud daddy right now, so thanks a lot kids.
Now let's get these final signups and finalize each city.
