    [FONT='Verdana','sans-serif']They have been combined - South Carolina minor league baseball team, the [FONT='Verdana','sans-serif']Greenville Drive[/FONT] launched a series of print ads that pay homage to "A Christmas Story." Using the tagline is "Make it a Baseball Story," each ad recreates an iconic scene from the movie, with a baseball twist. Click here, here, here and here to see a tongue stuck to a foul pole, a leg lamp clad in baseball garb, a boy with broken glasses due to a baseball and bat and a boy laying in the snow in an oversized snowsuit.

      All I Want for Christmas
      Is My Eyesight back
      By Tony Conigliaro

      All I want for Christmas is my eyesight back,
      My eyesight back, get my eyesight back.
      Gee, if I could only have my eyesight back,
      Then I could see you at Christmas."

      It seems so long since I could see,
      A fastball coming in right at me
      Gosh, oh gee, how happy I would be
      If I could only see.

      All I want for Christmas is my eyesight back,
      My eyesight back, get my eyesight back
      Gee, if I could only have my eyesight back,
      Then I could see you this Christmas."

        They're funny lyrics, Vintage...but I was thinking with "The Christmas Story"-baseball theme: "You'll put your eye out"...
