Slowwwww day, Mobsters. As much as I enjoy living here, as happy as I’ve been raising a family here, I do wonder what it might have been like to write sports in a bigger place, with more local options. White Sox suck? Head north to the lake. Jets a mess? Giants are playing the Cowboys Sunday. San Francisco Giants or Oakland As?
And so on. Options. Only during college basketball season do we have an abundance.
Which got me to wondering: If you’re a professional athlete, how do you feel about playing here? Does relative anonymity appeal to you?
