Baseball 2010

Talk about a mixed blessing.......

I'm happy the Sox are opening the season.

But......

They're opening the season against the damned Yankees.

And I live in New York.

Which means the game is blacked out on ESPN.

Which mmeans I have to watch it on the )(#*&)@(*#%&)@#($*&)@#(*$&)(@#*$&)(@#*$&)(*@#&$)(*@#&$)(*@#&$%@#_)(&!@_#(*!&#%_)@($&%^)@ Yankees network.

Hmmmmmm ...

He seems less than "pleased" about the arrangements.

Hope the Postmaster General isn't gonna toss the first pitch.

Due to illness, the DH and I did not make it to the pre-season game for the Phillies on Friday 4/2.

Don't feel badly, we have Charlie Steiner.

I would prefer watching it on NESN. The pre-game show was fantastic. Then all of a sudden it was blacked out and we get ESPN - since we live in Michigan, I guess.

Oh well, the game is worth the price of admission - no matter the location.

Switching back and forth between the Sox and Women's NCAA basketball - GO UCONN!!

Doesn't get any better than this. Sox win and so do the UCONN women.

Neil Diamond sings "Sweet Caroline", live, at Fenway.

I have one thing to say:
Welcome back to Philadelphia Placido Polanco!!!!
Go Phillies!
I love it when the visiting teams crowd cheers louder than the home team and during the 7th inning stretch you hear "it's root root root for the Phillies" loud and clear even though they are in Washington, DC!

[RICHARD]

The commish office is making changes to the game by mandating My Sharona be sung instead of "Take Me Out".

You misread the article, Richard. Actually it's "My Bologna" by Weird Al. He didn't charge as much of a rights fee.

[RICHARD]

You say Bah loh Nah and I say Bah Low Nee!

It's a miracle! The Pirates WON their home opener! Garrett Jones knocked his first home run into the Allegheny river and his second into the left field stands. A different year for the Bucs??

One should avoid jumping to early and possibly erroneous conclusions.

Tyme might be better spent falling upon one's knees
and clasping hands in Prayer.

(God prolly doesn't believe the score, either.)

You're right, C&S. That's called counting the chickens before they're hatched, but I gotta have a little hope!

[Grace]

This is great - if you are a Sox fan.

From Opening Night at Fenway, here is Joshua Sacco

Time to dust off my Bobblehead Baseball Jesus for the season.
