4/6-OPENING DAY-Cubs (Z!) @ Astros (Oswalt) - 6:05 CSN/ESPN2

[JimSorgi]

I haven't been excited at all the past few days, but now I can't wait for the game to start.

[Guest]

Let me reiterate here how much I hate the Astros.

 

Oswalt, especially.

He's a tool.

 

Go Cubs!

[Bluescale]

How the hell can people not be excited?

 

I don't get it.

 

They must be nihilists...no other explanation... :P

 

Opening day even got me to come out of hiding to post again, I'm so darn excited!

Watching all of these games on ESPN and following my Fantasy team is an awesome feeling. Hurry up 6pm!

Fred hasn't posted stats yet? Is he sick?

I hear he's on the road right now, but will be online sometime shortly before gametime. I can't name my source, but trust me when I say it's someone who is very close and involved with the proceedings. (This source also says Peavy will be a done deal by first pitch. ;) )

[Shilzzz]

lol @ ivan rodriguez.

 

though it makes me sick to remember him hurridly shaking his catchers mit during the 03 playoffs. if ever i've wanted to punch through a tv and strike someone, it was him, then.

MLB.com has a Gameday Premium now. Is it worth it and does it come with MLB.tv?

Well it looks like they took the "video" option off of the regular gameday...so this doesn't really help you in your decision - but it sucks none the less.

They have a free preview of it now for some games. It's pretty nice. It has all the pitchf/x data for each pitch, broken down for the game.

I don't get it.

 

Why get excited? They could run away with the division and there would still be no reason to think they won't suffer another humiliating first round sweep.

 

Yeah, I know. Whatever.

I wanted to punch Dusty for continually pitching to him even when it got to the point where you KNEW he was going to kill you if you pitched to him, and DUSTY STILL DIDN'T WALK HIM!!! AAARGGGHHH!

 

Sorry, my therapist says I should stop talking about the 2003 NLCS altogether.

[BleacherBadger]

Work....not getting....done...

[Outshined_One]

Work....not getting....done...

 

I took the day off from class. It was a wise choice.

[erik316wttn]

All of a sudden I'm starting to feel really sick. I hope I can make it through the game.

 

Screw it, you know what? I've waited six long months for this. I'm watching this game if I have to take my laptop up to the ER with me.

Then why bother following baseball ever?

I'm home, sitting in front of the tv, watching the Cardinals blow a lead to the Pirates, wearing my powder blue Cubs throwback jersey, and ready for the game!

[CubsNSkers07]

I'm here and time for the Cobs to win.
