Hi everyone,
I'm Chris Hata, hence my screen name, and I've been a Nats fan ever since the Expos were announced to move to D.C. I'm SOMEWHAT of a regular on the Nats message board on the main site (with the same screen name) but I'm sick of dealing with the trolls.
I was born and raised in northern New Jersey, but I was raised to be a Redskins fan. My parents both grew up in PG county and I still have a lot of family down there. I love baseball but the football fan in me wouldn't allow me to root for a New York or Philadelphia team, so I just didn't follow baseball too much. With the Nats in D.C. I finally got a team I could root for and claim as my own.
Go Nats!
Welcome to the "other" side, Hata! You'll see some familiar faces over here. Uh, er, familiar avatars? Whatever, you know what I mean. See you 'round!
