Ryan Zimmerman often attends the winter events, as does Manny Acta. Usually the problem is finding players who are in the DC area in January -- but I'm hopeful that the NatsFest means they will require most players to attend. I know what you mean -- I wouldn't really want to show up if it's a couple of scrub relievers and a backup infielder, but if they're actually having a fan fest, I think they will produce. Then again, it's the Nats, so you never know.<BR/><BR/>I'll be there either way.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-28676208.post-66623550205173853792008-12-17T19:42:00.000-05:002008-12-17T19:42:00.000-05:00I don't mean to be negative, but three questions:1...I don't mean to be negative, but three questions:<BR/><BR/>1) Will anybody besides the very few die-hards show up? Or even care? <BR/><BR/>2) Could they have maybe done this at an indoor facility? I mean, maybe they'll have the whole thing inside the club level, which would be interesting, but i for one have no interest in hiking around a stadium which at that point in the month will be a frozen tundra.<BR/><BR/>3) Will any players that fans actually want to meet (such as Zimmerman, NJ or Scott Olsen) show up? Or will it be, and let's be honest here, the usual collection of D-list Nats that you see at events? If that's the case, i'll be there, if not, i'll stay away.<BR/><BR/>Kudos to the team though for scheduling this event on the off-Sunday between the end of the NFL playoffs and the Super Bowl. Glad they were aware of that!<BR/><BR/>4)Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-28676208.post-63117271853029769642008-12-17T17:34:00.000-05:002008-12-17T17:34:00.000-05:00Tom: No official word on who might participate unt...Tom: No official word on who might participate until the week of January 12th.Screech's Best Friendhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01094199653375184305noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-28676208.post-10579017958006915742008-12-17T17:27:00.000-05:002008-12-17T17:27:00.000-05:00Any word on which players are going to be at each ...Any word on which players are going to be at each event?Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-28676208.post-28088448140604264272008-12-17T15:33:00.000-05:002008-12-17T15:33:00.000-05:00Teixiera shall win cook-off with his Tex-Nats chil...Teixiera shall win cook-off with his Tex-Nats chili, which is very new and extremely rich!<BR/><BR/>Trust in "10 Years for a Teixiera."
