Welcome

I write these notes in the hope that I can be a force for good. What follows here is an attempt to bridge the gaps of sports fan understanding, to discuss the tools necessary to save fragile human relationships--one game at a time.

The world is an ever-shrinking sphere, one where disparate ideas are thrown together with such force as to be rendered almost unrecognizable from each other. It is a place where geographical isolation no longer ensures homogeneous thought. To illustrate...

There are Red Sox fans in New York City. There are OSU fans in Michigan. There are Cowboys fans in DC. There are Lakers fans in Boston. You get the idea...

In such an atmosphere, one can't help but be exposed to "the other side." Often it's impossible to tell at first glance who are the angels and who are the demons. And sometimes, you even get to like a person before you are presented with the horrifying truth. What then? What now? What if you meet someone who is a great friend/date/spouse/etc except for one tragic flaw: they love a team you hate?

This blog is for those people, and the people who love them.
