Let it be known that I just started golfing the end of last year. Before I had been intimidated by the game, for fear of knocking someone out from one of my stray balls. However, thanks to a friend, I've rarely missed a week of golf this season and my game is actually starting to improve. I figured I'd take this opportunity to share with Evansville residents where the best courses are, to learn to golf, because everyone has to start somewhere. The first place I golfed in Evansville was Wesselman's Par 3 course. It's wide open, except for a few light poles, and it's laid back enough so you won't...

Finally, after a horrendous losing streak it looks like the Evansville Otters are back on their way to playing like the team I saw in the first few weeks of the season.  Getting some stolen bases, home runs, and just playing all around like a better team.  So much better than the embarrassment I saw at the last Thirsty Thursday. I love the Otters, the field, the game, everything, but the last Thirsty Thursday the team was playing like a bunch of little leaguers.  A return to form is refreshing and has me looking forward to the next game I get to catch.  Any professional team would be proud of...

You may have noticed by now that I am an Evansville Otters fan, even after the lack luster season last year. Today they announced their schedule for the 2008 season, with the opening game being on May 21st. I can practically taste the Thirsty Thursday events. mmmmm Game times for the 2008 season will be similar to years past, with a few exceptions. The Otters will host two 12:05 PM games--on Tuesday, June 24, and Monday, July 28. There will also be three 1:05 PM games--on Friday, July 4, Sunday, August 24, and Monday, September 1. Standard game times Monday-Saturday will remain at 7:05 PM, and Sunday...

We knew at the end of last season (which was terrible) that the Evansville Otters would be receiving a new manager. Personally, I've not been looking forward to who the candidates were or who the City would finally decide on, but I think I'm happy. Just taking a look at this guys experience gives me goosebumps at the opportunities next years team will have. Jason Verdugo is the new Otters manager and with him he brings experience from: Verdugo was named head baseball coach at Division III Hamline before the 2002 season. He overcame an 8-28 record in his first year to post a 21-19 mark in 2003. His...
