From time to time, it is healthy to put aside all emotion and deal with only measurable facts – data that can be tested, debated on clearly defined rules and used to create models that can deepen our understanding of a subject in a way that our eyes, hearts, and guts are incapable of. And sometimes, it is important to do the exact opposite.
Facts are great, and for the most part, I prefer to stick to them, but naturally that means I need a sanctuary for the most extreme “feelings” I get while covering the Colorado Rockies and Major League Baseball in general.
