And We're Off


According to weather.com, it will be 57 degrees with scattered showers in Little Rock, Arkansas on Sunday. We'll let you know if they're right.

Yes, with an open heart and an empty head (or something) we three embark on our journey of Midwest sports miscellany that will eventually become [name our book] by David, Jason and Loren.

The odyssey begins Saturday, March 22, around 8:30am Central Daylight Time in Chicago, IL. And it will end at Wrigley Field in Chicago on Monday, March 31 at 1 pm CDT, as we usher in the 2008 Baseball season.

In between, we'll take copious notes, take endless megabytes worth of digital photographs, record hours of audio, and Benetti no doubt will eat his weight in things smothered with gravy. And we will blog.

Stay tuned to name our book to follow us on our journey. We'll post thoughts, photos, and sound bites from the road. Read, look, listen, enjoy. Then feel free to click on that shiny yellow button on the top right and become a part of our journey.
