I cant believe that after all this waiting for this day to come the weather is going to ruin it.

Restart the Countdown To Opening Day timer.

:( :curse:



before anybody says "It still is opening day even if the brewers don't play".

To me baseball hasn't started until the brewers get started :clap:

Right now, No. Illinois ain't pretty, but this storm should clear out of here around noon. After that...who knows

Baseball Tonight was literally 45 seconds into it and Karl Ravech already said that weather should affect the Brewers-Cubs since there's a roof on the stadium.

And it begins.

It looks to me like they will get the game in today. There might be a slight delay in starting the game but it looks like there is a break in the rain in the right spot moving Northeast.

The only thing I worry about is Sheets getting hurt in the cold damp weather like last year in Wrigley.

The radar looks pretty green/yellow/orange around Chicagoland. It looks like its going to be around awhile too.

They left tomorrow open for this reason.

Why choke me? I want Hart batting 5th. Choke Yost.


Duh! Everyone knows why Hall is batting 5. The lineup looks alternating and pretty in Nascar's eyes.

IF-OF-IF-OF-IF-OF-IF for the first 7 batters.

Five minutes into the first broadcast and I'm already sick of Davey.
I'm against picketing but I don't know how to show it.

I haven't paid much attention to the pregame show but it seems like Nelson has improved from last year.

Ladies and gentlemen, may I have your attention please...

The Cubs suck.

That is all.

Aiming for a 2:30 first pitch according to Trenni (someone who is actually talented AND doesn't look half bad either).
