March 2011

My first game of the year…

will not be at Angels Stadium.

I repeat, will NOT be at Angels stadium.
It will be….
At Dodgers Stadium.
*Cue dramatic-you-did-not-just-say-that-how-dare-you music*
I know! I KNOW! I feel horrible! I feel like I’ve betrayed them. You guys understand right? I mean, we’re starting on the road anyways! Sigh, I hope you forgive me. You have to understand, our school was selling cheap tickets haha! 
So Dodger fans, I’ll be at the Dodgers v Giants game this Friday! See you there :P  
The Halos are starting on the road against Kansas City Royals which is a little bit weird because we always start off with some team in our division. However, I’m so excited and can’t believe that it’s finally time for a new season! In a way it feels like it couldn’t come soon enough but in another way it’s as if the year’s gone so fast! 
By the way this opening day marks not just the Angels’ 50th anniversary but it also marks my 10th year of being a baseball fan!!! Ten years of great baseball and I still can’t get enough! My grandparents and the rest of the family can’t wait to see what 2011 will bring! 
Fan loyalty surprises me in more ways than one. Even though our offseason wasn’t that great and things are looking slim, my grandfather looked at me and went “Let’s still root for the Angels this year!” And I agree! You stay with your team rain or shine. But I really hope it’s more shine than rain >_< I’ve earned more respect for fans who passionately support low performance teams. I understand how hard it is and for you all to still go to games and support them no matter what is so inspiring! Makes me want to be a better fan :)  
You never know what happens in baseball! It is truly unpredictable! That’s the thrill! 
So keep up the hope fans! It’s a new day! It’s a new dawn! 
TIME FOR BASEBALL!
