Im sure most of you are like me and can’t wait for the MLB regular season to start and need something to do. In preparation for the season there are many sports and non-sports activities that can get you in the baseball mood. Here are 5 of my favorites:

     1. Watch Spring Training and watch the position battles going on between players on your favorite team

     2. Fill out your NCAA March Madness brackets (this works perfectly because usually the championship game is within days of Opening Day)

     3. Create a countdown of exactly how long it is until pitchers and catchers report to Spring Training (people may scoff at you for this, but if you’re a die hard fan, it’s essential)

     4. Read “Is This a Great Game or What?” by Tim Kurkjian (I’m reading it right now and many of my friends have given me great reviews on it)

     5. Scout your players for fantasy season, drafts will be here before you know it, right as Spring Training games start

      Do you have any other weird traditions that you like doing before the season starts? I’d love to hear them so comment, because if you’re anything like me, I’ll do whatever it takes for the season to get here sooner.
