The fundamental problem with the Japanese baseball blogosphere

It's written mostly by people who don't actually go to baseball games in Japan.

...

And maybe that's the way it should be. But the fact is, I no longer post things to Marinerds, choosing to put all of my game experiences here instead, because I'm mostly just writing about myself and my experience at the games, rather than what the players did, and I can't tell whether anyone who doesn't know me personally will actually give a shit about that kind of crap. I've been to 83 games this year, all over the fucking country, and am on target to hit 100 within the next month or two. I've had the time of my life doing it. But somehow I feel like nobody actually cares about that kind of stuff, the adventures of being a white girl in a vast sea of Japanese people.

The funny part being, I started Marinerds because everyone was sick of me posting so much about baseball here. Ugh. What the hell should I do?
