Countdown to Opening Day

[Bombers]

I liked our Magical Magic Number count ... So I figured lets have a count down to opening day! As I can't wait for some real baseball to begin!

 

17 days until opening day ... Lets start with this picture:

Gumby looked much better with curly mop and stache than he did with the huge specs and sans lip sweater

In 6 days the Mariners/As play the first regular season games at 6 AM in Tokyo

 

(what the hell, MLB?)

I hope the A's full season ticket holders get one helluva comp package for that.

It's not like the first time they have done this. I actually like the thought of wathcing baseball at the breakfast table before I go to work.

I hate this...Call me old school. Call me old fashioned but there is nothing like baseball's Opening Day in any other sport. America's past time having the first game played outside of the country is moronic.

We're doing the picture thing again? Awesome! I'm ready for tomorrow. But for today, although not a Brewer, we'll go with the greatest #15 of all-time...

Look at Grieve... what an obvious juicer

Would 'the juice' make someone's eyebrows extra bushy?

 

I'm only about 90% on board with a countdown to opening day because we still don't have our 2012 tickets, but it's day 12, which to me means...

"Changing Places" just seems like the right phrase to describe Mighty Matt's career.

I'M on board with Hawing. Iam 90% in as well, but in the same situation as him, my 20 pack has not arrived yet. Hard to be all in when I don't even have my tickets for opening day in hand yet.

I see your new here, so I fixed it for you.

Wow, I remember when Matt Stairs was considered a "big" signing for the Crew.
