[quote=Insider;57977]Maybe this is our year? :good:[/quote] Haha...isn't that what you say every year?

[quote=molds13;57980]Haha...isn't that what you say every year?[/quote] Yes. Eventually I'll be right. I was talking to someone today about the comment Zambrano made regarding a new field for the Cubs. The guy said.. "tell him to start winning and maybe he'll get a new field." :blue: Hey Bacchus, can we get a baseball smilie?

I have been a Braves fan since I was a kid bc they are closest team in geography to me!! But where I live is a Cubs AA team for the last 3 or so years and then last year I went to Wrigley for the 1st time (freaking awesome) so now I am a Cubs fan also. So I have 2 teams that I root for! So opening weekend was awesome cause the Braves won Sun night and the Cubs won tonight!!!

It's ok though, if the Tigs lose, there's always football. Oh wait. I meant basketball. Oh wait. I meant hockey. Yeah, hockey. Love me some Red Wings!

Jrmdawgs, it's impossible to step foot into Wrigley Field and not be a fan of the Cubs. It's the second oldest park in the league. (Fenway is first). Ps. No trip to Wrigley is complete without a stop by The Cubbie Bear. Have you been?

[quote=jrmdawgs;57992]I am a bit confused bc this is a Baseball thread![/quote] ...it is. Just trying to make a joke about how much sports suck in Detroit as of late...except the Wings. And sometimes the Tigs.

LMAO molds....I get it. ;)

BoSox opening day was rained out. They start the season today at 4:06 ET. The good news is I got to watch the Yankees play on ESPN. :D

Phillies!!! Back to back world champs!!!!!! So we lost the first game.. big deal Meyers pitched. We still got this!!!

I didn't get to watch much of the Yanks loss (muahahahah!) but I was pretty surprised they lost so badly. I'm intrigued to see a glimpse into the new stadium during the series in May. I've heard it is pretty much like going to a resort and I expected nothing less. Sox v Rays today, hopefully! I wasn't able to watch any of the spring training games so I am excited to see my boys in action for the first time in '09! Maybe there will even be a good old Beckett dugout swear fest :)

Congrats to the Bosox.

[quote=Insider;58162]Congrats to the Bosox.[/quote] Beckett was absolutely dominate through 7. I have a good feeling about this year. Especially when you read the preseason predictions and hear Cy Young, Beckett, Lester and Dice-K all in the same sentence. I think it is clear the Sox have the best pitching in baseball and when a guy like Mike Lowell is batting 7th in the order, you have to assume the hitting is not that bad either. We have a great squad and I think we are going to be waging a championship campaign.

How about Beckett's line: 7.0 IP, 2 H, 1 R, 1 ER, 3 BB, 10 SO, 0 HR 1.29 ERA, 93-61 PC-ST I missed this Beckett! Welcome to the '09 season Josh. Now just stay healthy please :)

Are you prepared to go against my team? :boast:
