So What Have I Missed?!?
« on: April 04, 2012, 12:17:38 pm »
Yes, baseball and I have been taking a time-out from our relationship.  It wasn't me, it was them.  And while I still loathe Allan Huber "Bud" Selig, and promised to do so until my last breath, fact is that I refuse to allow FYB (i.e. Selig) the power to take away from me something that has meant as much to me as baseball has.  (And even then, but for getting to 'watch' some of the kiddos play I might still have continued my time out...).  SO... That said...  What have I missed?!?  

[And yes, hanging curve here.  We'll see just how ready the TZ is for Opening Day...].

Spelling seems to be appropriate, obviously Fredia isn't in Opening Day form yet.  Anyone else?!?

Actually, I was practicing that for opening day. I'm really going to need a roster to start the season.

You can put those DoRay 'we-re-better-this-season-no-really' reports to rest. I've listened to half an inning today and God, they suck. It's like taking sandpaper to a body covered with shingles. You guys talk about hating Bud, being upset at Drayton, pissed at moving to the AL - DoRay is a severe organ punch that happens every day for hours.

It makes "Here Come the Astros" seem like Mozart.

ETA: I think it was actually called "Go, Go, Astros!!"

Damn, it went so well with that thing.  I thought it had to be official.

Rather hear "Shoot'em down, Houston Colts!"

Wonder if they will revive that on the flashback day?
