This is a blog not about the "what" in sports but the "why" in sports. I own 94 New Era ball caps that hang on the wall in my bedroom. Of the 94 I regularly wear only 4 of them, why is that? What causes a fan to claim their favorite team as a part of their family? Why is this country so intrigued by sports? Why has athletics essentially been adopted as religion in this country and across the world? These are topics that will be discussed within this blog. This blog is for educational purposes only and will only be viewed by my Sports Communication and Sports Media classes.

My Beat: MLB

One of my favorite pastimes is also happens to be "America's pastime" and for that reason I've decided to write my beat on MLB. I love watching and playing the game, but I'm also fascinated with the issues that happen off the field. The draft, trades, free agency, collective bargaining or anything else that occurs are all aspects of baseball I can't get enough of. I also enjoy learning about players and how they interact with their teams, community and families so I hope to incorporate some of those stories into my blog as well. So take me out to ball game and let's play ball.
