Three-in-three 14 times?
Oof.
I like going to Hershey for their home opener. I don’t like three trips to Norfolk for four games. (Yep, sure I won’t be making two of them.)
I like Cool Fun 202. I don’t like going to Hartford for theirs. (It’d be better were it another place, because I could at least justify a hotel room. Hartford? Nah. Just leave at 7:45.)
I like the Sunday-heavy schedule. I don’t like the 7:30 Wednesday starts. Heck, I didn’t even like the 7:30 Friday starts. (I understand them. I just don’t like them.)
I like seeing Worcester. I don’t like not seeing the Western Conference. (There’s a Western Conference?)
I like not having a Thanksgiving game… and I know Gino and Sean like it, too. (Barlow-Weston, here I come.)
I like going right back out to Wilkes-Barre, especially because I have lots to do in Scranton.
I really don’t like Nov. 3 at Bingo-Nov. 4 at Portland (not again!), or Nov. 17 at Worcester-Nov. 18 at Hershey. Ow.
And February will be tough. But one of those few days off is a good one.

The new Milwaukee logo is up on the OtherAds site, with a story to go along with it. Fuuuunky.
Thoroughly unrelated: In the most applicable alumni magazine, Jonathan Lemire of the Daily News writes a profile of Mets broadcaster Gary Cohen. A Cohen quote I loved:
I did a forum at the Museum of Television & Radio a few years ago with John Sterling and Joe Castiglione, and they were talking about their great moments in broadcasting, the no-hitters, the World Series games. And I have, what, a Joe Orsulak home run?”
(What I almost love as much is, because it’s an alumni magazine and not a sports magazine, there’s parentheses identifying Sterling and Castiglione, and an appositive calling Joe O “an obscure Mets outfielder from the mid-1990s.” Orsulak, obscure? Dude almost won me $50 in ninth grade.)
And no, CA, I’m not around. Not even in spirit.
