Opening Day, Baby!

Sure, there were official games played last week, but they were in TOKYO, for Pete's sake and they started at 3:05 AM. So on Earth Steve, those games don't count.

Last night the Nationals played the Braves and neither of those teams are going anywhere, plus they are boring and (in at least one case) sad, so they also count not.

Today at 4:05 PM, the Angels play the Twins and that makes THIS Opening Day!

Here are the 2008 Predictions:

AL West: Angels (natch)
AL Central: Tigers
AL East: Red Sox
AL Wild Card: Yankees

NL West: Diamondbacks
NL Central: Cubs
NL East: Mets
NL Wild Card: Phillies

AL Champ: Angels
NL Champ: Mets

World Champion...

My heart says Angels. My head says Mets. Flashbacks to 1986.

PLAY BALL!!!

Don't forget your Worship Committee Meeting...I'm assuming you're DVR-ing the game? (is that a word?)

I'd love to, Shane, but I've got this darn meeting.

Can't you DVR the Meeting?
Too bad we couldn't hook up in SoCal when the Braves take on the Angels in inner-league play.

I love baseball season; I really do. Looking forward to seeing how the Cardinals do this year. .......but, right now, I gotta get through the rest of March Madness and focus on cheering on the U of M Tigers and Coach Cal as they make their way to the Final Four!

It's time for a million man march on MLB HQ to put an end to this opening day overseas nonsense. I just can't take it anymore.

Our entire family just got tickets for the Braves / Angels game ... Friday, July 13. Maybe by then the Braves will have pulled something together. Didn't show much against Washington the other night. I turned off the game and watched a movie.
