everyone's hero movie

 in the morning i watched a DVD movie, a recent purchase from amazon, 'everyone's hero'. this was the second of two discs in the case. i had seen an ad for this movie on another disc, 'night at the museum'. since this is a baseball movie it was of interest to me. it is about the Yankees in the 1932 world series against the cubs, and babe ruth's bat being stolen. it is animated and i was familiar with many of those in the voice cast. this includes William h. Macy, Whoopi Goldberg, and Rob Reiner. Joe Torre essentially plays himself, the Yankees manager. i know it was a fictionalized account of the series, but this wasn't even close to the best baseball movie i had seen. a few things in it were too far-fetched. the music in it was good, including 'Chicago, that toddling town'. then just before midday i started watching a college basketball game on fox, the Iowa men's team was playing at Nebraska. Iowa won and made it into the conference tournament with the win. late in the afternoon i went to the Mall of America for a meetup event. it was at a restaurant, 'fair on 4'. passed by it on previous mall visits, first time inside. memorable was getting my food order and it i could tell it wasn't my order, based on the kind of fries as well as i asked for cheese on my burger. some kept asking about it, i said i returned it and eventually i got the correct order. the mini donuts arrived first, and my drink was root beer. i got a look around before leaving, there is ax throwing as well as go-carts. and a big game room as well, including skee-ball. i got a picture of the bear onstage as it said 'do not feed the bear'. i didn't do much in the evening, besides the dishes. during my walks i found 43 cents.
