First post

This is my first post on here, I have wanted to have a blogspot for a while, but haven't gotten around to it. That being said the thing on my mind right now is the Chicago Cubs and why I am still a fan. I started off an Atlanta Braves fan until i was about 11 or 12 and then I went to Wrigley Field when I was 14 and had a change of heart. I'm sick of being a Cubs fan, they never cease to disappoint me.
I am open to become a fan of another team. I don't change teams very often, but I usually only root for teams in the National league. My mom was born a Cards fan and I have tried to get into the Cards for years, but it just hasn't happened. My grandfather got my mom into the Cards when they lived in Cape Gerarduo,Mo...I know I am not spelling that right. Maybe I just need to go to a game. I know it shows that I am not that big of a Cubs fan when I try to be a Cards fan. I also like the Dodgers..I'm a big Joe Torre fan...I always liked him as a coach when he was with the Yankees, but I can't stand the Yankees. My day feels so much better when they lose.

Watching baseball and especially college baseball this year at Ole Miss really made me miss baseball alot. Its hard to watch a full game on t.v. for me but being at the ballpark is a different story. I've been home all summer and set up a mound in my back yard and I throw everyday. It brings back alot of great high school memories. It is the greatest feeling in sports throwing a baseball as hard as you can and striking someone out makes it all the better. All that being said its hard for me to honestly go to a game and not want to be on the field or a part of the game. I found the Ole Miss baseball games better than mlb games. I haven't been to many college baseball stadiums, but I would say it would be hard to top the atmosphere at OU stadium on a friday or saturday.

I think baseball deserved the first post. I'd say college baseball has jumped to my second favorite sport at Ole Miss. Hard to beat college football. If I was playing on the baseball team it would be a different story. Thats all I have on this matter.

About 2 weeks until I am back in Oxford for my senior year, can't wait.
