… report for Spring Training in 8 days 15 hours 3 minutes…. Tick. Tock. Tick. Tock. Tick. Tock… I can’t wait!
The time from the last pitch of the World Series to the first pitch of Spring Training is rough for me. Give me baseball any day over any sport. No questions asked. I’ll take a last place Cubs team over a first place Bears team any day. I just love baseball, real baseball, National League baseball, Cubs baseball. I watch football every weekend. I watch a lot of basketball (I’ve given up on the Bulls and moved-on to the Mavericks).
Even better, the Cubs are gonna be damn good this year. Yes, a ton of offense is gone. That offense that left town also took with it some very unpopular players from the Cubs clubhouse. If the pitching staff can stay healthy this year I think the Cubs can give the Cards a run for the NL pennant.
Take me out to the ballgame…
I know this will sound almost un-American but…..
I wish MLB had the lock out and not the NHL. For me, the superbowl ends my American sports viewing.
Yes, yes its true, while some have thoughts of the boys of summer, I have the WRC’s trip to Swedan on my mind. While some are planing trips to Florida to take in some spring training, I look to Malaysia, Imola, Barcelona, and Monte Carlo for F1 action. And yes while the baseball season race starts to heat up, I must admit, my mind is overseas at races like Paris-Roubaix, Liege-Bastogne-Liege, Fleche Wallone, and the grand daddy of them all, the Tour De France.
I can almost smell my bike’s chain grease from here. snif sniff. Aaaaaaahhhhhh.
Yes I am, STRANGE. 😉
Enjoy your season.
Holy Cow!
You don’t like vi or baseball!!!!!!
