"The one constant through all the years, Ray, has been baseball. America has rolled by like an army of steamrollers. It has been erased like a blackboard, rebuilt and erased again. But baseball has marked the time. This field, this game: it's a part of our past, Ray. It reminds of us of all that once was good and it could be again. Oh... people will come Ray. People will most definitely come."
--"Field Of Dreams" (1989)
What a beautiful day it was in Lincoln. Temperature about 80-ish, just the slightest breath of a breeze, very few clouds in the sky, and the field at Hawks Field/Haymarket Park was as green as green could get. And to top it off, the Huskers squashed Illinois 13-3.
