Greeting to baseball fans one and all,
It's been a while since I touched my blog. Since my last post, I took a trip to San Francisco, Oakland and Seattle to catch ballgames and had a blast. Loved the fan base in Oakland and had the most fun there. Fans were friendly, staff was great and I felt welcome. San Francisco is a beautiful ballpark, but the fans were less than friendly and the seat I bought was a restricted view seat (behind the right field foul poll) and I was charged full price and not told it was a restricted view. Seattle was ok at best. Sat in the outfield there and saw Red Sox fans get drunk and fight with Mariner fans. Spent the last 2 months suffering through Padre baseball and lost a desire to write about what I saw from the players.
With the start of the new baseball season, I decided to change the focus of the blog to a more positive one. While I didn't plan on the other being negative, it sometimes sounded like it. I understand players want their privacy and that it's a hard life. Sometimes, they just want to come to work and not be bothered. So instead of writing about players attitudes, I wanted to pick a subject that was simple and a little fun. With that said, my idea and theme for 2012 will be.....Who and Why?
Who and why you say? What does that mean? Well, I've decided to undertake the task of asking players, managers, coaches, and even the front office who their favorite all time player is and why. I think this will be a fun project to undertake and I hope to get lots of answers. I hope you will enjoy this too.
The Casual Fan
