It’s finally here!!! After 5 long agonizing months of waiting, Opening Day for Baseball is only a mere 5 hours away. I can’t even begin to describe how excited I am. The Baseball season is the one thing I look forward to every year and it never gets old to me. I’m a huge Red Sox fan but will watch any and every game I can. I don’t care if it’s Kansas City Royals vs. the Oakland Athletics, give me a hot dog and a beer and I’m watching the game.
When Opening Day finally gets here, it always gets me pumped not only because I love the game but also because it means spring is finally here and summer is right around the corner. Since we’re having a tough time shaking winter here in New England (another snow storm on the horizon) it’s nice to see baseball being played. It’s like a signal that spring’s here and all this crappy weather is on its way out!
I’m even more pumped this year because I’ve signed up for MLBTV through the MLB network. Basically it’s a system that allows me to listen or watch EVERY game for the ENTIRE season. I plan on watching as many as I can. I figure I’ll have the local TV on the Sox because they’re local, the computer on the Yanks (to watch our biggest rivals) and the iPad on the best matchup of the night. The system also allows me to plug in my fantasy team or my favorite players and it will alert me when they are coming up to bat and automatically switch over to that game. How cool is that!!! Either way, I’ll be watching so much baseball this year I won’t even be able to comprehend anything else going on in the world.
So come 1:05, I’ll be listening to the games and then after work, I’ll be at the gym watching the games, then for dinner it’s dogs, kielbasa and some beer for the night games!!!
Maybe it’s me but Opening Day is like Christmas to me!!
