CASTING NATIONALS FANS FOR CARDINALS @ NATIONALS ON 8/30

Are you a die-hard fan of your hometown team?
Are you comfortable speaking on-camera?

Here's how you can have your voice featured in the MLBN Showcase opening segment:

Record a video of yourself reading the text below:

"This is the land of hard work.
The land of open spaces and diverse faces.
This is the land where determination and loyalty are always on the job.
This is the land of baseball."

I would submit a tape, but I'm kind of afraid that they might select it.

I don't think my ego would be able to handle not being selected.

That sounds awesome, but I don't think I could do it  :lol: though free tickets sounds tempting.

Well, we certainly have some folks here who might fit the category.  We celebrate diversity!    :P

I'll just read this paragraph instead:

"I am a Nationals fan!
If you hate then you're an assclown jabronie.
We've got some dope ass pitchers.
Our sideline reporter is smoking fine too."

If that's what they change the paragraph to then I will make it a point to be there and say that on camera.

I submitted mine.  The form asks why I should be the one who reads the open and I said because it would be an awesome birthday gift.  We'll see.  I tried to get my theatre techincal staff at work to help me out but they're at traininig, so I had a friend help me with my little digital camera.  The line is kind of cheesy, but that's the first part of their standard open (the rest of it is just as bad).  They have some stock footage they roll and you're basically just narrating and they only show a quick clip of you at the very end.

Did you know that Rock Creek Park is twice the size of Central Park?

It's about time we put the bulldozers to that nag.
