Summer of Love

April 19th, 2008 Shinsano · 1 Comment

I recently came across Nine Bo Jacksons, a good fantasy baseball site with one of the better names I’ve ever come across.

Apparently he’s just finishing up school, and won’t begin a teaching job until the fall. As he puts it, “What would any normal person do if they had 2 and a half months off during summer? Tour every ballpark in the country (& Canada), of course.”

Here’s his itinerary:

May 30-HOU @ MIL
May 31-NYY @ MIN
Jun 02-LAA @ SEA
Jun 04-NYM @ SFG
Jun 06-LAA @ OAK
Jun 08-CHC @ LAD
Jun 09-TBR @ LAA
Jun 11-LAD @ SDP
Jun 13-KCR @ ARI
Jun 17-CLE @ COL
Jun 18-CLE @ COL
Jun 19-CLE @ COL
Jun 20-SFG @ KCR
Jun 24-STL @ DET
Jun 25-SFG @ CLE
Jun 26-CIN @ TOR
Jun 27-TBR @ PIT
Jun 30-WAS @ FLA
Jul 01-BOS @ TBR
Jul 02-PHI @ ATL
Jul 03-NYM @ STL
Jul 07-MIN @ BOS
Jul 08-TBR @ NYY
Jul 09-SFG @ NYM
Jul 10-STL @ PHI
Jul 11-HOU @ WAS
Jul 12-HOU @ WAS
Jul 13-HOU @ WAS
Jul 17-NYM @ BAL
Jul 20-NYM @ CIN
Jul 23-TEX @ CWS
Jul 24-FLA @ CHC
Jul 29-SEA @ TEX
Aug 01-NYM @ HOU

 

Thing is, when you come out and write something like this on your site, and people comment and link to it, you can’t blow it, or any of it, off. This is a great trip…on paper. Not sticking to the schedule, and of course doing full reports on your site, could be the death knell for said site.

I’m exaggerating a little, but hopefully he’ll do some reporting on this as he goes along.
