Nothing

I'm sitting here and I can't think of anything to write about. Besides the NCAA tournament nothing of significance, to me at least, has happened in sports all weekend. The Masters are coming up this weekend and that should be great, hopefully Tiger wins. The NCAA tournament game is tomorrow. I want MSU to win because I am from Michigan, yet I want UNC to win because I have them winning in my bracket, so I guess either outcome will please me. The women's NCAA tournament championship is Tuesday and UConn will probably win by like 20, which is good because a perfect season is always interesting. The MLB season started tonight and the rest of the games will be tomorrow, I think, unless some aren't until Tuesday. This is always a good time of year for sports, ya know? The baseball season has just started so we have like 6 more months of that, the NCAA tournament is winding down, the Masters is this weekend, the NBA and NHL regular seasons are coming to a close so the race for the playoffs is getting tight. Unfortunately there is no football, soon enough though. I know a lot of people who don't like watching baseball, but I just love it, especially during the summer when Baseball Tonight is on every night and Sportscenter is dominated by baseball. The only bad thing about baseball starting up is that I can no longer play; this will be my second spring with no baseball and it's getting to me already. Last year wasn't too bad because it was the first time, but I'm thinking that pretty soon I am going to have to join a slow pitch softball league or I will go crazy. Sure, coaching Little League helps me cope but I need some real, on the field action. I am coaching with my high school coach this year...that should be interesting, me being the manager and him the coach. A real reversal of roles seeing that I didn't play very much during high school. Anyways, the itch to go out and play catch is killing me right now, I need my arm to be sore from throwing, I need by mouth to be raw from eating sunflower seeds, I need my hair to me matted down from a cap every night, and most of all I just plain need baseball.

See how a post about nothing turned into something...great isn't it? Speaking of great...it would be great to go to Iowa and go to the real Field of Dreams...have a catch with the old man...cry a little...go home...sounds great. My philosophy with this blog...if I write it, they will come.
