My sports viewing goals for the next 3 years

I was thinking about some things I wanted to do sometime since my kids are now getting a little older and it isnt as much a burden on anyone to leave them behind for a day or 2. Mostly, this is a personal list. I doubt Jessica would want to do any of these things, outside of just wanting to go along to experience the towns or travel... but it is mostly sports related...

1) go see a foorball game between two HBCU's. i think it would be fun to go see a game between sombody like Hampton and Howard... NOT one of the hyped classics, but a normal game in one of those rickety stadiums where the bands blast away at each other the entire time, and really...no one cares who wins the football game.

2) Go see a Nascar race at Talledega, Bristol, or Rockingham ( before it goes away )

3) Go see a Red Sox game at Fenway

4) go to either a Michigan football game, or a Ohio State football game. get into town Friday midday, take in the college spirit, tailgate Saturday and go to the game....

5) See the Lakers... perhaps when they come to Atlanta or Charlotte next year. Perhaps they will still have Kobe, perhaps not. But the Diesel will still be there... all hail the Diesel.

not much else right now.. I need to get these done before the T Ball leagues and dance recitals start taking up the weekends... then after that will come soccer leagues and piano recitals...then come either the marching band/ drum corps contests, or the traveling softball teams and AAU baseball...or... perhaps Quarter midgets for Ian on his way to Nascar.
