Lets Go Guys!

Now I'm OUTTA HERE

An MLB Board, sweet!

Go Cubs!

2poor and I are going to be here a lot and maybe PoseyH8er.
This will be the Toronto Raptors board of baseball

First DirecTV, now an MLB Board.

LOL
I knew we would get this opening day.
They had to hold it off

Lets start talking about the game since that is why we are here.

I think the Cubs stack up well against the Reds even though the Reds are a very good team.

Great American Ballpark is a hitters park so I expect to see a ton of homers and runs in this series.

Luckily we are bringing our top 3 against them so it should leave it up to our offense in this series.

To be honest, I'm my brain hasn't made the switch just yet so I'm a little foggy as to the going-ons with other teams.

Give me a week or two and I'll be blabbering about all sorts of things.

Got tickets for 4/21 against the Cards, I'll be in full swing by then.

I still don't have any tickets for any games but I am sure I will pick up some.
The only tickets I have for any MLB games is Yankees/Indians on Aug. 11 which I have no business for any team.

My brother got tickets at the local grocery store where WGN was at. He only got tickets for himself and my father for next Tuesday. I have to work that day.

Yeah it sucks I have to work tomorrow but I will record the game and hopefully not hear the score.

I'm probably going to fib to my employer so that I can get out in time to catch the game on ESPNHD.

The probable linup from Cubs.com.
i willl be here a lot also since I know 10 times more about baseball than I know about basketball.

Bye the way, are we going to do single game threads or series threads for the year?

I am not sure how the mods want to do it.
I think we should do series threads for now and maybe move to single game threads as we grow.

Do you guys want to do something like at the Bulls board where if they go 2 out of 3 the same person makes the next series thread? They are doing something like that at the Sox board.

Yeah that sounds good.

Yeah that works, I'm capable of making series threads here and there.
