Baseball is back! International competition is fun when The Netherlands (?) beats The Dominican Republic. Led by Sidney Ponson (born in the Kingdom of The Netherlands, Aruba…) these lowlanders took out loaded D.R. (blessedly missing A-Rod) in the first major upset. I am now watching the U.S. take a 2-1 lead (Youkilis scores!) over Venezuela. I also opened my mlb.tv account today to placate my need to access Red Sox coverage anytime anywhere. It feels like baseball is back already and I was actually shocked to realize that opening day is still four weeks away.
I know this means that spring is coming and days are growing longer and warmer. Sooner than we realize, summer will be upon us again. As much as I look forward to nice weather in the future, I hate to wish time along any faster than it already moves.
Venezuela just tied the game…
>I admit I don’t care for the crying and dry sntcihing either but he has a point. Personally I think Congress could focus on some other issues like war, economy, or health care but for now let’s agree that social issues like performance enhancing drugs in sports should not be ignored. If you are going to clean it up clean it all. Why DOES football get a pass? Baseball must be saying if you’re going to leave them alone get out of our house too. It’s unfair.
