And the season begins!
Even if you couldn’t watch your team live or had to be at work (my Cubbies played at 4pm my time so had to watch on MLB.com) you could still feel the utter excitement and chills as the MLB season got underway. What happened today?
The Yankees got a little clobbered, the Dodgers won (arrrggh), White Sox get canceled due to the typical Chicago spring-time weather, the Marlins clobber in their first game and hello the Cubbies hit a home run on the first pitch of the game against Houston. Oh what a beautiful start Soriano.
And the Cubs home opener is in 6 days. SIX DAYS. My little Cubby blue a*s will be on a plane on Easter Sunday, and my alarm will go off sharply at 7am on Monday. I’ll be proudly wearing my Cubby blue, flask in hand, breakfast at Nookie’s to get some fuel and a stop by the Wrigley office to get my tickets before heading to Sluggers to say hi to the crew. There is NOTHING like your own home opener..NOTHING.
I will still stick to my ever faithful one game at a time rule this season, and this time. Cubs WIN 4-2. That’s my boys!
GO CUBS!
Great start to the season! Go Cubs! Have fun at the home opener! I’ll be sitting at Miller Park hopefully watching the Reds kick the Brewers. (My college sells brewers tix for $2, how could I not go?)Stephaniehttp://steponme.mlblogs.com
Always feel better when Cubs can win opening day, or any day they play for that matter. Hopefully the weather will cooperate with Wrigley opening day for you. What do you put in your flask?
someone will get drunk girl of the cubbie girl- and have a fun day- i have meet 100s of cub girls over the years- they don’t have a clue but drinking is the start of what they love. with-nothing wrong at all with that-please i wish they wouldn’t talk cubs baseball until they know that you can’t throw a baseball on the field- if you caught the ball when it was foul
