Opening Day for Baseball

Yanks and Jays at 1pm. I hate being in the office. I should have taken the day off and flown to NYC for the game. Here's to the start of taking Rad's money.

Good luck to all of the baseball fans respective teams in the BA, sans Josh. He ain't gotta prayer.

Just sitting here wondering when I'm gonna get downtown to see the FIRST-PLACE WASHINGTON NATIONALS.

Here is to another year of my Red's living in the cellar of the shitty NL central. Maybe my backup team, Detroit, will do something this year. Every year my brother and I are so optimistic in April and by June the baseball season is effectively done for us.

I watched the last 3 innings of the Nats game last night. The Walk-off HR was special as it was the first game in that new stadium. Good for them.

If they keep that pitcher who threw the first pitch for them last night, they're toast. Did you see how high over the strike zone that thing was? Whole crowd was laughing at him.

TT, I do the GameDay Audio subscription every year so that I can listen to games live via streaming audio. I'm a radio guy -- I love listening to baseball, love it far more than sitting down and watching it on TV. You ever tried it?

You talking about Odalis or the Texan?

Always hate it when my Braves lose one, but for the 1st game ever in the new ballpark I can deal.

I do listen to some games on radio. Phil Rizzuto was fanatastic as the voice of the Yankees. Some of the great voices that I actually have listened to are Vin Scully, Bob Eucker, Harry Caray and probably my favorite all-time was Ernie Harwell. He was a magician describing the action. When you listen to Ernie, it is like the two of you are sitting there together and he is telling you a story.

I saw that they yanked him after one pitch.

I'll watch the game but with the volume down and the radio on so I can listen to the Braves radio announcers. The Nationals have a good radio personality in the booth, I believe in Don Sutton!

She is a fucking shill. I hate her. Notice I said Phil Rizzuto. I never once said that the current Yankees broadcasters were good. Although I like Michael whateverhisnameis.

Rad, how is the weather? Are they going to get the game in?

Gettin bonus coverage on ESPN right now of the Tigers-Royals because the shitty Yank's are getting rained out. Verlander is looking pretty good for the Tigers so far.

The Braves opened in DC last night for the Washington Home Opener and then flew home for a 3 games series with the Pie-rats, opening tonight. Last year the Nationals came here for a one game series with the Braves and then the Braves flew out to somewhere. I don't understand for the life of me wtf the league is thinking with a one game series and then flying home or flying out for a 3 games series...
