Been browsing over the forum for about a month or so now. Just thought I would give some background on myself.
I am pretty new to baseball. My dad is a huge Sox fan.... has been for years, I always watched Sox games here and there but was never a die hard fan or knew every single player on the team like most of you guys here do lol.... Even now I dont know the entire roster, but lately I have been watching alot more games and getting alot more interested in baseball. Its fun to see the team doing well, even though guys like Lackey, and Mcdonald seem to be struggling. Its a tight division this year and its been pretty exciting.
Being a Canadian I do get alot of trash talk when I wear my Redsox hat but I guess it comes with the territory. I had to hear alot of talk today after the Jays won. Its a shame I dont get to watch as many games as I would like to, if I am not working I am usually out with my gf or playing hockey or out drinking lol. However there is nothing better then being able to sit outside, watch a game and have a beer.
As for sports background I am an absolute die hard Seahawks fan, and Sens fan. I think I have watched just about every Seahawks game since 04. About the time I started to like watching sports. I am only 23 right now. I didnt really start watching sports till I was 16. None the less it would be nice to see the Sox take the division this yr and or at least grab a wild card spot. Sens had a rough yr last year, and although the Seahawks made the playoffs and got a nice win over the Saints I dont really consider a 7-9 record a successful yr lol, but ill take it if it means playoffs.
Anyway thats all for me... Ill be around quite a bit. Mainly looking at convos, I usually love getting involved in discussions or debates. I am over on a Seahawks forum and love talking football..... however being relatively new to watching the mlb I dont know all the rules or players just yet lol so I may embarrass myself if I try to add in my two cents. But hopefully ill be around quite a bit and can talk with a few of you. Most of you guys and girls seem to pretty nice around here and know your stuff quite well
