Fans will have diverse viewpoints, whether the team wins or not. We've fortunate of late to win more than not. In the age of new fat contracts, many will say overly fat contracts, it's accelerated the divergent discourses as fans love their team(s). Nonetheless it's the discussions of those teams that we follow and love, many of which we've had with our own friends and family outside of this cool little forum, that foster new ideas and many times new friendships in cool little forums like these. We're all considered family here. Nurturing our friendships here is worth the effort.

I recently moved back to Louisiana. I planned on hosting activities for BnG I thought in time for this year's draft. 2020 and its consequences have been challenge for everybody. Next year I'll begin. And we can nurture our camaraderie with a BnG Draft event.

Make sure you post about it next year. I think it sounds like fun. Do you want to meet up at training camp this year? My twin brother and I will be in town along with a couple of other BNG members who are meeting up with us.

Smash,

Kind of off topic but do you plan to visit Europe this year?

Maybe...even though my Dad is gone and there is no reason to go back for distant family in France. My wife wants to go back to Greece. I kinda want to hit the east coast of Greece and go into Croatia and also do the islands there. First we'll be going to Costa Rica where she has a sister.

Are you planning a trip?

Very nice.

We'll probably go back down to Puerto Rico (Dorado) around Christmas time.

My daughter will be a high school senior in 2023 & the school has a trip to Spain scheduled. Momma, Daddy & her brother can't wait to tag along for that one

I'm a big time MotoGP enthusiast so hopefully I'll get a chance to attend one of the races (either Sachsenring or Barcelona) while visiting.

You'll love Spain. Barcelona is real cool. Portugal also. If you all have time to do the French Riviera from Cannes to all the way to Monaco and maybe even a little bit of Italy, it might be worth it, although way more $. I took my wife and granddaughter to Paris/Bordeaux/Barcelona on a two week trip.... $$$

Those sound like a great place to spend time. We are spending three weeks in Europe in September and had to drop spending a week in Greece but we are already planning our next adventure there. We will finish is Split Croatia where we will spend a week. We are hitting three countries but I'm most excited to explore Croatia who I discovered while planning the itinerary.
