Opening Day is Almost Here~<3

So yeah, like, Opening Day for the baseball season is nearly here~

Besides Tony and I, however, I don't know if you guys root for a team or even have any interest in baseball, but still...I thought I might ask.

My team is the good old Min-ne-sooooo-ta Twins, who beat the Yankees in a spring training game today (take that explitive-faces), and besides the loss of Joe Nathan (nooooooo!) we're looking pretty good.

So...yeah...

I'm afraid I don't follow sports and especially not baseball, at least on TV. I don't mind seeing it in person but I find it, golf, and racing to be unbearable on television.

I can understand golf and racing, but baseball? C'mon. To me there's little else better than to throw open the spring-breeze-laden air, turn my DS on, maybe have a little something to drink, and turn on a game.

But I respect your opinion. Possibly.

I guess I should watch more baseball..

WHY MUST YOU TAUNT ME MISS VAPOR SNAKE WITH THESE AWESOME THREADS @_@

lols. Refer to my place of residence for my favorite team

The Philadelphia Phillies~

Should've beaten the Yankees last year. I blame certain players, but meh.

The teams I really like this year are:
NL:Phillies(That's it for now.. for the NL)
AL:RedSox, Twins, and Mariners.(Simply b/c Cliff Lee is there )

Going to my first game on Saturday~
Can't wait! My first official game of the season should be some sunday in April. Actually many sundays in April lol.

Y'know, we were gonna go see the second game of the season in shiny new Target Field...but now we can't...I'm so bummed...

not really a sports fan myself, so i just cheer for whatever convenient

around here we got the chiefs and the royals, (yay?) but i could honestly care less.

No, not yay.

Went to my first game this year~

Doesn't count, but sure as heck was fun!
Pirates 3

Phillies 4

I root for the Boston Red Sawx. I like the Cubs as well because they are probably the closest MLB team to my hometown.

The BoSox are awesome. I've been to Fenway. Its amazing. Have you been?

Its an experience

I've never been, Tony. I really want to. I may go this year before the seasons over, got another weeks vacation to take after next week. w00t for being off work a week and getting paid.

It is, like I said before, an amazing experience. Fenway Park is just... so cool xD but Fenway Franks (The hotdogs) aren't as good... xD

They have over 550+ consecutive sellouts. That's the most in MLB. Although it is pretttty expensive to get in there :/

Thats one thing I hate about the major leagues, or any pro sport really. I can go watch the Tennessee Smokies for like 7 dollars. It's rather upsetting.

Yeah well with all of those Major League players making millions... we have to pay them somehow >.>

~Or they could settle for a more reasonable paycheck.~

hahaha riiiight.
