Random Comment

Now i KNOW these last couple of entries takes me away from my blog topic, but sometimes you just have to go on a tangent. Who knows who reads this stuff. But anyways getting to the point, I commented on a guys blog that was about how he fixes up Volkswagens and makes them really nice. The comment is here. But I think you should check out his site (click here) just for his pictures and what he does with these cars, it is really amazing. Well...See ya later.

Required Blog Post

I read on John Battelle's blog, that microsoft withdrew its offer of acquistion from Yahoo! I find this shocking because in order to compete with Google, Microsoft needs to step up in the fields of inerent search and other internet aspects. It will be interesting to see where this goes in the future, to see if Yahoo! was just interested in getting more money out of Microsoft, or will Microsoft be forced to look somewhere else to get a gateway to the internet.

Top Ten Sales Promotions used by MLB

I found a pretty cool article today waiting for my coach to email the team whether or not our game was canceled today due to the rain. Well anyways, I found an article about the Top 10 promotions used by teams in Major League Baseball to get their seats filled. It's a really cool article if you want to check it out just click here.

So other then the article, I forgot to post regarding the teams current status. Before this weekend the Pioneer's came into the series with an even conference record of 8-8. This weekend we face a tough opponent in CCSU and they have beaten us in the first three games up till now. The first game was lost by back to back homeruns in the top of the ninth to put CCSU up by one run. Although it was a heartbreaker we did come out the next day and compete very well against them, but couldn't hang on to the leads.

We play today Sunday, May 4 at 6:30 PM at The BallPark at Harbor Yard.
