Title: Opening Day! Post by: WayAbvPar on April 03, 2006, 02:24:02 PM Hope springs eternal, and the Mariners are tied for first place, at least until the first game is over.
This article (http://sports.espn.go.com/espn/page2/story?page=gallo/060403_april) is fucking hilarious if you are a baseball fan. Check through all the months. It was written by the guy who does the Sports Pickle...very good stuff. Title: Re: Opening Day!

Quote 11:37 -- Lowell weakly grounds out to end the second. I don't want to say that he looks finished, but the only thing missing from his Boston at-bats this spring is a pack of coyotes cautiously approaching him from different angles.
