Padres preview book

By Tangotiger, 03:32 PM

I love the initiative of the blogger fandom to take creative control and put out a book.  Friend of The Book ducksnorts did such that, and the preview (pdf) looks fine so far.  I’ll buy the download today, and I’ll let you know next week what I think of it.

Just as I prefer the local paper’s view of the local teams over the “national experts”, the same goes here.  The Fans have an indelible experience with their team, and that’s what we need more of.

"Think of this place as something like a college classroom. We’re in charge, we pick the topics, we set the rules, and we try to foster as much intelligent discourse as possible. If this isn't your cup of tea, there are plenty of other sites out there for you to try—we're not going to be for everybody, and we're not going to try to appeal to the masses." —USSM
