I'm not a huge fan, but I try to attend at least a couple of games each season. And naturally, I root for the hometeam to a degree.
We may not be the best team in baseball, but we have the best pitcher in the American League, last year's Cy Young award winner Roy Halladay. Hopefully he can prove himself as a consistant force this season.
I'm hoping one of these days we'll make it to the playoffs again.

The only sport I care a little about is baseball, and I don't care too much about it. But I'm always going to be an Orioles fan. I was 10 when they won the world series in1983, and I got a ball autographed by the team. All of them. My autographed Cal Ripken, Jr. card from that year hangs on the wall over my son's crib, right next to the Beatles at the Paladium poster. I'll root for the O's until the day I die, and the rest can rot. Especially the Yankees.

I know I will catch a lot of crap for this but I am a huge Braves fan. Now I know they have their own TV station and I know there are Braves fans crawling out of the woodwork all over the country, BUT, I grew up in Georgia and started watching the Braves in the early 70's. Hank Aaron was still playing. If you look back you will see that they were in last place or close to it almost every year. They had one good season in the early 80's but that was it until 1991.
So anyway, I LOVE baseball and the Braves and cannot wait for the season to get rolling.

Go Red Sox! Ths IS the year, right?
I believe that the Cubs/Red Sox World Series that ESPN.com and the Boston Globe are predicting is a sure sign of impending Armageddon.
If so, can we start a petition for "Waiting for the End of the World" for the postseason "Baseball Tonight" theme music? Peter Gammons is pretty musically literate...

The Convincer is terrific! It has such a comfortable, relaxed feel to it. Good stuff. Now I need to get The Impossible Bird and Dig My Mood Do you have these? Any preference?mood swung wrote:senior_svc, I was just guessing that there had to be at least one more fan here!! glad to see you!!

(too much let it be naked today). And how did you like The Convincer?
Who is your favorite MLS team? I feel guilty; I haven't actually been to a Galaxy game in a couple years. MLS needs all the support it can get. The standard of play has improved significantly since the league started. I'll have to make a trip to the Home Depot Center soon for a Galaxy game.

Have all three of the more recent Nick Lowe albums -- Impossible Bird is probably the "best", but I love "Dig My Mood" too. The Convincer didn't really convince me, however.
And I like MOVIES about baseball. (The new Bernie Mac vehicle I saw a preview for last night, "Mr. 3000" looks fun.)

Well, at least we won't go winless.senior_service wrote:I went to Opening Day at Dodger Stadium yesterday. Terrible game, but a beautiful day at the ballpark! You're right, this is going to be a very long year for the Dodgers.Who Shot Sam? wrote:Go Dodgers!
Have a feeling it's gonna be a long season for the Blue!
I'm more worried about the pitching. There's no way we can hit as poorly as we did last season!

well that's right because you've got milton bradley now! i'm the only person left on the planet who still believes adrian beltre is a potential superstar. probably due to the fact i saw him hit 2 balls in a row a country mile as a teenager playing A ball. he was a man, swagger and all, among boys at that time. i've only seen 3 minor leaguers, all happening to be teenagers and all at the A or lower A level at the time, who i came back and told fans "remember this name" and the other 2 were carlos delgado and vladimir guerrero. so beltre has to become a superstar so i can be right!Who Shot Sam? wrote: There's no way we can hit as poorly as we did last season!
I'm not concerned about the very poor.
