Allow me to preface this post by saying that this is nothing against Matt Adams. I have written about him before and I have been following his rise to the majors for quite some time now. I think it is awesome that someone from my hometown has had success in the MLB. With that being said, I need to rant a little bit about the recent parade held for Adams in Philipsburg.
I find the whole parade a little ridiculous. They are holding this parade over Veteran’s Day weekend. I think it would be better to have a parade honoring vets. If they want to do something with Adams, why not have something at the YMCA where he can sign autographs or something. Maybe ask him to do some kind of talk at the schools. I think that would be nice.
