The long dark winter of tall men in baggy shorts running up and down wooden floors is thankfully over.

If something about it smells different this year, it's probably because, for the first time in many of your lives, Jamie Moyer isn't on somebody's roster. Finally.

Sox over the Giants in 6.

I have not been as excited about opening day since 94'. I still watch just never got the passion back after the strike. I never figured out why MLB doesn't schedule opening games in southern cities, CA, or domes for first couple series. Even college teams play southern teams for almost first 3 weeks. With all that said "GO Braves!"

Yeah, I recall several, but they fall into that 87-95 range where everything is pretty well blended together upstairs.

I know they were still fairly common before I got to college in 88. They were pretty much gone by the time I was done with college. I have no recollection of whether they were around in between or not.

The worst thing now is that, even when they're forced to schedule one as a make up game, they always do the stupid day-night doubleheader instead, and they suck. It's not the same thing at all.

No way the Yankees play today, unless they start despite the showers and rough it out, any delays will only lower the chances.

Ideally they'd have already got on WFAN and told everybody to stay home, but the ESPN influence means they will try it.

40% chance of rain from 1 to 3, 50% at 4, and 60% at 5. Hope they can squeeze the game in. Only a high of 44
