What a great shot.
Well, my video blew up yesterday, thanks to The Big Lead.
Watch this fool.
ESPN’s Jim Caple has posted his list of “The 101 Things Every Fan Must Experience Before They Die.”
Here’s how I stand on his list. I have been lucky enough to attend:
#4: The World Series (1993 @ the Vet)
#5: NCAA subregional [he means the 1st and 2nd rounds] (2006 @ Wachovia Center)
#6: Spring training (Phillies at Jack Russell, Royals at Baseball City, Braves at Disney)
#7: NFL conference championship game (2003 @ the Vet, 2004 and 2005 @ LFF)
#9: Wimbledon (1998)
#16: [Baseball] HoF Induction (1991 & 1995)
#23: Football game at Notre Dame (2006)
#28: US Open golf (2007 practice round @ Oakmont)
#30: US Open tennis (1999)
#35: MLB Opening Day (many times)
#43: MLB All-Star Game (1993 @ San Diego, 1996 @ the Vet)
#62: Midnight Madness (2003-2006 @ Gtown)
#64: Camp out for tickets (March 2007)
#88: Monday Night Football (Sept 8, 2003-Eagles vs. Bucs @ LFF)
Caple goes on to list his “10 Events to Avoid.” I have attended 3 of these events:
#1: Super Bowl (XXXIX Jacksonville-Eagles vs. Pats)
#2: NFL exhibition games (many)
#9: Wing Bowl
Attending 14 of his 101 in my 21 years shows how lucky I am. I think that its about 16 events, because he didn’t include the Super Bowl or the Final Four, both of which I’d include in my list.
A great inside account of the Celtic’s draft process from ESPN’s Andy Katz. Katz reports that Green is in the mix to be taken at #5, but Yi was the favorite as of Monday night. Come on Sixers, get Jeff Green.
9,987 total losses for the Phils as of 6/10/07.
#10,000 is coming. Will you be there?
Among other things, Mark Cuban suggests that he will bid on the Cubs if Wrigley Field is offered in the sale.
An interesting look at what happens to an old arena (Kemper) when a new one (Sprint) is opened.
