I have been interning for a few weeks now. And I have
learned this, I hate baseball. A big part of my responsibility is to log the
games and highlight the key plays. The days that I have gone in have all been
days where the Boston Red Sox are playing. I spend most of my time watching the
Red Sox lose, and it is very boring to me.
I am a football fan. I can say this because of the four
major sports, football, baseball, hockey and basketball, football by far is my
favorite sport. I have respect for that game. In baseball, especially the Red
Sox, I have lost all respect. Here is why.
The Patriots vs. The Red Sox
The New England Patriots are a very classy team. The owner
Robert Kraft cares about his players on and off the field. The Red Sox however
are the least classy athletes I have ever seen. They drink during games, joke
around after they get pulled from games and do not seem to care they are the
worst team in baseball right now.
I have spent way to long watching the Red Sox in the past
few weeks. And I am disgusted that at every chance they get, they are
celebrating a time when they were winner. On September 25, 2012 for an example,
the Red Sox honored the 2004 winning team. Okay that is great, you guys broke a
curse or whatever, but the Patriots also won in 2004, and Patriot fans do not
need to honor a winning team, because they still are a winning team. The
Patriots are still striving for greatness, while it seems to me the Red Sox
have given up completely.
New Stuff With The News
Okay enough ranting about baseball and football. Here are
some new things at the studio. First off we got a new producer, named Chad.
Chad has previously worked at ESPN and NESN. This is important to me because if
I want to continue a career in sports, I can ask him for contacts and network
myself.
Other new things that happened this week, the Fox 25 Sports have
just created a Titter page. This is exciting because social media is such a
huge part in sports it is crazy. You can follow us @FOX25SPORTS. This also
means that I might soon become responsible for maintaining the Twitter page. This
will give me more responsibility.
Another new and exciting thing is that I might be able to go
into the field soon! The Patriots are playing at home next week and they need
someone to go to the game and conduct the locker-room interviews. As of right
now they said I can go so I am hoping this is true!!
Okay that’s all I have for now! Maybe next week will be a
little more entertaining blog entry.
