Games on that list that I’m most exicted about are:
- Dodgers on May 6. The Braves have a food stand that imports the food of the opposing team. Dodger dogs. Oh, my.
- Tigers on June 24. I heart the Tigers and have since ‘84, so that’ll be a great game to see. Plus, any time a team who played in the WS (even if they got swept by a team in looney-ville), you have to be excited to see them come through. Maybe Verlander will start, or Zumaya will pitch… 100 mph fastballs are awesome in person.
- Mets games. They suck and I look forward to boo’ing them.
- Giants on August 16. Maybe a Zito sighting? Maybe a Bonds sighting?
Is it freakin’ March yet? Sigh. Â
Only one inter-league game kind of bites, but that’s a good schedule overall. Bring me a Dodger Dog!
Welcome to the webl world, Eric. So glad you let your fans know you are here and opening your life for others to enjoy!!
Over in my neck of the woods, we also hate the word blog and thus have taken to webl (the first half of weblog). It’s at least a little more fun to say! join us, help spread the meme (not sure if that’s an accurate use of the word meme… but it works for me!!)!!
have fun!

Wade – I was kind of bummed about only one inter-league game myself, but the schedule is pretty sweet. You’ll have to join me for a game.
Thanks, Ashley. I’m glad to hear others hate the term blog. Webl is more fun to say for sure, but for my mental well-being I’m going to call it a journal – it lets me think I am not writing for other people to read, which allows me to breathe as I write (I know, I know, pointing people to the site contradicts that, but it’s my brain, it doesn’t have to make sense!)
You forgot to mention the Nats games — 2 guaranteed wins for the Bravos!
Incidentally the Nats just signed Don Sutton. Supposedly it’s as a TV commentator, but they may have to plug him into the rotation.
Hahaha, Sutton might actually help the Nats rotation. He’s a great announcer, though, you should be pretty pleased with that. I’m sad TBS is being phased out of the Braves telecasts.
Boo on the Nats hate
We will rock the league!
Hey, don’t look at me, Dan started it… and he’s a Nats season tix holder like you.
That said, I think you meant to say you’ll *get* rocked by the league. They’ll score a fun runs, but give up a ton more.
I created Google Calendars for my 41 Nats game plan and Eric’s 20 Braves game plan
41 Nats
2o Braves
Awesome, good work on the google calendar. Being non-lazy is good stuff. Looking at those calendars side-by-side, If I get to DC the first week in April, I’ll be at baseball Mon, Thurs, Sun, Thurs. mmmmm. Interesting, three of those are Nats games.
