Although historical Halloween has some sinister beginnings, today Halloween means dressing up in costumes and having a wonderful time. Parties, dressing up at work, decorating the house all are part of the festivities that have become Halloween. To really get into the whole Halloween thing however must include not only a great costume but also a great Halloween mask. The costume is rather simple to obtain as there are costume shops in most major cities and it's even possible to order a particular costume on the web for delivery just before Halloween. Although you may now have the clothing to look like your favorite character or monster, your face still is easily recognizable. This is where a high quality Halloween mask can really come into play.If there's a choice between a fancy costume or a great Halloween mask and makeup, definitely take the mask. The reason is that although the costume can complete a certain "look" any character you can imagine can also wear basic street clothes. Consider the strong heavily made-up character, a clown.

Introduced to the world as the Cincinnati Red Stockings and premiering as the first professional team in 1866, it took three full years before the Red Stockings became a fully professional team. Just a year later in 1870, they won 130 consecutive games before meeting with defeat against the Brooklyn Antics. That same year, many of the best players were uprooted to Boston and took with them the name Boston Red Stockings; known today as the Atlanta Braves. Resultingly, a new Red Stockings team joined the National League. This second team was tossed from the NL at the end of the 1880 season because they violated the rules by renting out the ballpark where they played and served beer to fans.In a twist of events, the expelled team was one of the founding members of the American Association and is the same franchise to date. With two teams of the same name, confusion arose and the National League team decided to shorten their team name to the Cincinnati Reds. By 1912, the Reds broke in a new steel and concrete ballpark named Redland Field. Just a few years later in 1919, future hall of famer Edd Roush led the way for the Reds to win the World Series. The Great Depression area left bye...more
