Red Sox fans do NOT mess around....

OneSeason, to me, means friends. OneSeason fans had their first real get together over the 4th of July weekend. Location? Boston, MA. In times when it seems some folks can only focus on how OneSeason “owes” them something….I was not surprised that during the weekend get together in Boston, market cap, IPOs, deposit limits, and OneSeason’s long term plan, was not even discussed. What was discussed was Red Sox vs. Mariners. (Mariners take 2 out of 3 at Fenway, but cannot complete the sweep on Sunday)

Center Field Bleachers. Fenway Park

Hot Chicks EVERYWHERE were discussed, as were the little known fact that the dudes in Boston definitely pop their collars, but also definitely do NOT iron their shirts.

Celtics Basketball was discussed, including Larry Bird, Red Aurbach, and Ray Allen being a TOTAL pussy.

Larry Birds Shoes

Had to wait for kids wearing Knicks gear on to pose for pictures w/ Red with their grimy fingers up his nose.

What was dicussed was Jpup’s decision to not wear all Yankee gear to the Sox/Mariners game in Fenway, was, on paper, a good decision and very heartfelt. But when he arrived, ready to go for the game wearing his Yankees hat and Mariners jersey, we had to walk him through how that scenario would probably work out for him, once he stepped foot near the ballpark.

Bob Rafferty, Jpup, Quizrox

Jpup should just get an OSN Jersey, and he can be popular in EVERY stadium! OneSeason has given many folks brand new friends, who they would never have had a chance to meet otherwise. Lifelong friendships have been forged. I got to meet one of the most amazing 2-year olds the world has ever seen.

Future Owner of Larry Bird. (NOT the turtle)

Giona is still emphatic (I asked her) that Larry Bird is the best buy, and TMAC is the worst buy. We have posted article after article that people would be much happier about OneSeason if they just chilled out a little bit, relaxed, and it has been suggested they just get on a boat.

"Looks like you blew a seal...." "Naahh. I just at a bowl of Vanilla Ice Cream is all..."

Did I mention Boston has AMAZING talent?

Ladies, please learn from this picture

Girls were everywhere. Boston rules.

A trip to Boston wouldn’t be complete without having a beer or twenty.

Obligatory Drunk Wound

Regardless of what the ‘market’ does. We are making life long friendships. We have people in every single state represented in OSN. While some people continue to bitch, moan, and whine about OneSeason, others are having fun, and making plans to go golfing together. Making plans to have beers together. Having fun playing contests in the forums. Oh, this dude has “Red Sox” tattooed inside his lower lip, by the way.

it says"Red Sox" It's a tattoo

I believe OneSeason will be around for the long term. CRV wouldn’t invest money in something that didn’t have a solid long term business plan with substantial growth outlooks. Several very smart, and very educated people would not be spending 10’s of thousands of dollars of their own money to create apps and games and sites based around OneSeason if it was going to fail.

OneSeason will be fine long term. Please take your complaining, and whining out of our faces. Have some fun. Meet people in your area. Go golfing. Play Beat the Bacon. I would like to thank OneSeason for giving me no less than 5 new friends in the last year who I would trust my life with, and hundreds others who I would be honored to call my friend. I can’t wait for the next 12 months.

The only question we have right now is where will the next OSN get together happen? Before or After the OSN Vegas Trip??

Have a great week everyone.

2 of my best friends in the world.(who I didn't know this time last year)

No other player invokes emotion from the hardcore baseball fans in the OneSeason Nation world like Ken Griffey Jr. EVERYONE at one point or another owned one of those ‘89 Upper Deck Rookie cards. It is a sign of the times. Griffey is 40 years old and in the twilight of his career. For many of us, thinking about Ken Griffey Jr, playing for Seattle, in his younger years, is symbolic of our glory years, of our youth. Trading baseball cards, shooting hoops, ditching homework to go to the arcade with your friends. Griffey was an absolute beast. He was the Michael Jordan of baseball. It is sad to see what injuries did to his career. Check this out.

During his 20 year career, Griffey averaged about 680 plate appearances per season. Because of injury, Griffey missed out on approximately 1700 plate appearances in his career. Griffey averaged 1 home run every 17 at bats in his career. So tack on 100 more home runs. He’d be at 717 today.

Griffey’s injuries started as Bond’s career (and size of his body) began to explode. Griffey was always an opponent of becoming huge and muscle bound. He maintained too big of muscles would reduce flexibility, and the ability to be limber, which are necessary to be a great baseball player.

So, we watch for Griffey to come to OneSeason. It might be today, it might be tomorrow, but it will be this week sometime, and it’s bittersweet for this Griffey fan. It’s great that he’s coming to OneSeason, but it also makes you think about what is going on in your life, and where the past 22 years since “The Kid” was drafted, have gone.

What are your thoughts on The Kid?

Here is an article submitted to OSN by Lurker ‘B.K.’ that he sent to OSN and requested be posted on the front page. Thanks for the article B.K.! You should post in the forums too! If you have an article you’d like posted. Send it to bullpup@oneseasonnation.com

Don’t follow the naysayers into the fireselling-If you’re smart!

There are people out there would have have you believe that the skies are grey, and trouble looms on the horizon for OneSeason. Some of them are promoting the crash, and pleading the end, because they are trying to buy up shares as fast as they can. They other people are a pretty funny bunch. They are the people who expect OneSeason to save them from their SHITTY purchases. If you listen to Oneseason Radio, you’ve heard for weeks who these terrible purchases are. (BMAR, DMAC, TMAC, etc) And these guys who have made shitty decisions are now trying to cry foul and blame OneSeason and try to have someone else take responsibility for their own trading actions. Hey, Smart Guys. If you lose your money, someone else made money. Congrats on playing OneSeason poorly. Maybe you should have paid more attention to the community, and who people were hot or not on, and traded accordingly. The Brett was pretty smart getting out of GTZY months back, and was laughed at when he did it for $7. Now Gretzky is selling for $2.00. Who’s fault is that? Are you mad at OneSeason, are you mad at Brett? Point the finger at yourself. You are just mad because people beat you to the punch!

boo hoo someone just profited off of me

Some of these people, who have made LAUGHABLE choices on who to own in their sportfolio, now want to point the finger at OneSeason, and blame OneSeason for their sportfolio. The FACTS are, if YOU lose money in OneSeason, someone else MADE money. Plain and simple. Don’t buy into the hype of the sky is falling. We’ve heard some great interviews from Mike Sroka and D.J. on One Season Nation regarding the future of the site. We know there is more fun stuff coming, and they are very excited. There are dozens of sites popping up all around us based on games, and other things to do with regards to OneSeason. Don’t buy into the gloom and doom. Please don’t follow the people who are just pissed of at their SHITTY decisions and trying to piss everyone off, and blame OneSeason, and call for OneSeason to fix things. Hey Dudes, YOU bought your shares, and OTHER PEOPLE are selling them for less than you paid for them. Suck it up, and stop your WHINING. I have bought myself nice positions in a few different guys, and haven’t been affected at all buy the crashing of the early issued players. All of these early issues are coming back down to earth and getting inline with the rest of these newer issued players. Stop your whining. Stop complaining. Stop blaming someone else for your decisions. Man up and do something about it. A lot of guys in the “Nation” forums complained about losses before, but by staying in tune with what is going on, a lot of them report being in the positive now. OneSeason is strong, and come football season, you will all be very happy that you found OneSeason when you did.
