I, like Pee-Wee, am a lucky lucky little boy. I started a fantastic, almost kinda dreamy new job this week as the host for Major League Baseball Network/MLB.com’s Sprint “All Together Fans” promotion. In a salted peanut shell - Sprint is having a fan travel the country and profile great baseball fans, tell their stories, have some laughs and catch some games along the way. I am said fan. And it’s a great campaign and a whole lotta fun. And sure, while the first week might not have been dreamy for me as a Red Sox fan it was a hoot meeting and talking to”Bald” Vinny, the lunatic Yankees fan who leads roll call in right field with their Bleacher Creatures every night (this :60 video profile of him ran Thurs night May 12th during MLB Network’s Royals @ Yankees game). And whatever team you root for I dare you not to feel something, have your sports heartstrings pulled at by the story of Jane Lang, a lady without her sight who travels with her guide dog from Morris Plains, NJ over 30 times a year to see the Yankees play. I may root for Boston every day of my life, but I’m a huge Jane Lang fan now. She’s pretty awesome. OH…and If anyone knows some great baseball fans we should meet/talk to/profile in the cities that MLB Network will be broadcasting from hit me up - @MLBNick - AND to anyone who was wondering…of course I have a Sox t-shirt on under my “casual fan” shirt & jeans every day. D’UH!
