Me too. We've got our own little club going.


We can't all be Chiefs. Gotta have some Indians.

I decided not to commit at this time as I've just got a ton going on. You got this, BoB!

DJ McCann: Sports Media coverage, Mass Transportation, Podcasts

 

Can't really do those. Don't listen to enough variety of podcasts, and my knowledge of sports media isn't close to good enough for analysis (you can only say "Gary Thorne rules, Nestor Aparicio drools" so many times, you know). I don't think there's enough mass transit to write about as essentially a beat, though I can certainly do so when the time is right.

 

I've wanted to do some stuff in terms of writing history, and I have some thoughts kicking around in my head on the subject. So, how about that: history of Baltimore and Baltimore sports. Mass transit could even fit into that scope.

I think you are an intelligent, well read guy, capable of interesting writing. Go with what interests you.

As an aside, it's kinda weird that such a high percentage of the consistent posters now have BSL in front of their names. 

Does anyone know when our jackets are supposed to get here?

Not dissing your real name, but I liked your old handle way better... the whole BSLRealName thing is just boring...

I was just commenting on the boringness of the outcome... I cast no aspersions of any kind on the fool who made the decision   :wink:

BTW, I suspect the plan is to get everybody who posts here to have BSLRealName handle... except me... then, there will be some merit to the semi-frequent lame rhetorical trick of claiming that it's me vs. the whole board  ;-)
