Well, I've never had the best of timing.
I started blogging about the Washington Nationals a few days after it was announced the team was moving from Montreal.
I stopped blogging a year ago Christmas when I got a real, paid job writing for my local paper.
In between, I wrote a thousand stories about some of the worst teams ever to wear a major league uniform.
Last May I had the chance to go back home to Washington for a couple of weeks and got credentials from the team to cover a few games against the San Diego Padres. I spent some time in the press box and in the club house, and man, was it fun.
I mean, when Bryce Harper walks by, nods and says "Hey bro," you know life is pretty good.
I'm thinking if I can't find a reason to write about the upcoming season I never will. A 98-win team adds a fleet center fielder, a former number-one ace and perhaps the premier closer in the American League and didn't lose a single player they wanted to keep.
This could be a very special season in Washington.
One my favorite years was 1969 when Ted Williams led the Washington Senators to an 86-76 record. I'm guessing that 2013 just might be even better. Oh, I'm not talking wins. An 86-win season will be a bitter disappointment for Nationals' fans.
No, I'm talking about the special feeling a sports team can provide its fans.

You need to combine practicality and personal touch in the gifts.
ReplyDeletePeople who tend to overpack their personal effects are always caught up in this dilemma.
When our level of motivation is low we are a like a car without

ReplyDeleteMany times if you use our suggestion you will find that the quality backpacks are the
same price as the cheaply made backpacks. If you have very large lenses, they
probably won't fit, but for a couple of extra lenses, you can design the interior to hold your equipment.
