Andy speaks his mind

This being my first post I should introduce myself to those who dont know me. Im from Germantown NY, and an avid Yankees fan. Im studying Civil Engineering at Northeastern University with Ben. Ive lived with Big Ben since the beginning of our sophmore year. We have gone to a few games together (I brought him to the old Yankee stadium, He brought me to a Yankees Sox game at Fenway just to mention a few) which is what started this idea.

Before this trip I have been to Fenway, Old Yankee Stadium, New Yankee Stadium, Shea, Camden, Kansas City, Tropicana in Tampa, and as you can see below Nationals Stadium.

Well I just got back from my family reunion (a major source of couches across the country) and found some good hook ups. Nora is in Phoenix (who knows where she will be next year but its a start). Jonathan said that he does a lot of work in Atlanta, which is good because Sally & Mike just moved from Augusta which was our couch down there. Sally & Mike, however did just move to Austin, Texas, which could be an option for Houston but probably not Dallas. It is defiantly a good place to stop.

I also found out I might have a chance to go to 2 games on Labor Day at Yankee Stadium. The Fingars had a rain out rescheduled to labor day when they already had a ticket so they gave them to my dad who asked me. Shawn and Alex are going to the second game that day with Alex's sister and boyfriend so if they (sister and boyfriend) dont end up wanting to go then I might be able to go to 2. SAAWEEET.

Just to put this in perspective Last weekend the yankees played the red sox in a 4 game series. Can you say sweep? The yankees crushed them to go up 6 games in the standings. Just had to mention that.
