Opening day is one of my favorite days of the year, win or lose. So happy to have baseball back.


Oh, it's not just baseball. :lol: After watching Kobe's career, I would add FG% for basketball. :)

We watched the tragedy unfold. We did as we were told, we bought and sold. It was the greatest show on Earth...but then it was over.

But you don't live in Dallas. I grew up going to games in the Kingdom. Griffey was a god in Seattle. My idol.

Rangers bullpen last night... dumpster fire.

Tonight - Perez is all over the place. Our pitching sucks.

Because it can be a lot of fun to root for the hometown team. Going to games in person is more enjoyable from my pov.

I thought you would have figured out by now that there has never been a pro team in any sport here in Maine. There is no hometown favorite here.

Those teams belong to the Commonwealth Of Massachusetts. How many 14 year old kids have the ability to drive 7 hours to Boston to watch the pitiful Yawkee's run the choking dead sox.
