Hello everyone! It's hard to believe it is mid-June already, the Celtics are in the NBA finals at game 6, and the Red Sox are (somewhat) cruising along this month. Summer classes at BU are keeping me extremely busy, but I wanted to write a post and let readers know a little bit about a favorite sports media website of mine.
I want to bring to attention Bruce Allen's website Boston Sports Media Watch. If any of you following my blog are big Boston sports dorks like me, this website is a must to check out. Bruce Allen lays out the major sports stories of the day, linking to their sites and summarizing the content. It is basically a one-stop shop to check out relevant links and information that takes time to find unless you utilize Google Reader or RSS feeds. He has great drop-down menus on the side of the website that links to daily newspapers, blogs, teams, and has a live feed that posts reader comments. It doesn't lean one way or the other in terms of favoring specific outlets, rather, it gives all relevant options and let's the reader decide for theirselves where to navigate.
It is also a great way to see how journalists and bloggers alike view local sports teams, including the Sox, on not only the games they play, but their in-season transactions, marketing efforts, work in the community, etc. Check it out and let me know what you think!

The Best Baseball Park on Earth
At a Red Sox-Angels game in September 2009 with fellow BU grad friends!
It was amazing to me that I have been going to Sox games since I was a little girl, and for the first time, went to a game with many newbies! I had the great opportunity to go with people who had never been and explain some of the Red Sox traditions (Sweet Caroline, the Green Monster, hating the Yankees, Fenway Franks, the history of the ballpark, etc). These are some of the many intangibles that make the Red Sox a valued brand in Boston, New England, and throughout the country. I will get into this in later posts :)
Special thanks to the BU COM grad program for showing the newbie graduates some Sox love and introducing them to the spirit, heart and soul of Boston :) And of course, for helping to introduce them to $7.75 beer at the ballpark.
