# baseball
is maybe the greatest game ever

# You wouldn't say that
if you had ever stood in the freezing cold watching Falkirk FC play another meaningless mid-table game in the Scottish First Division.

Marvelous.

However, baseball is really good and I am looking forward to the new season.

# You can't
use a person as a jug. It's preposterous.

# I have been paying
no attention to what has been happening pre-season.

I'll wait until the games start and see if I can spot who has gone where :)

# Well, feel free to follow my team

The Tampa Bay Devil Rays.

I'm the only fan left on Earth who cares about them. And I am lonely and cold.

# Alex Rodriguez is also a Yankee now
but will be at 3rd instead of Short
Such a great year to be a Yankee fan!

# Please forgive me

but I must

*groooaaaannnnnnn*

(no offense intended, of course, to your team; but, well, *grooooaaaannnnn - wipes tear from eye, thinks of his poor D-Rays*)

# Not coming from the USA
I don't really have any allegiance to any team.

I do quite like the Cubs though, simply because they never win. The Giants too - I like that Barry Bonds fellow.

# I'm from the north side of Chicago
so even though I had White Sox season tickets there was a backyard Cubbie fan lurking inside me...but I can't help myself. As much as I tried to resist it, I love to watch the Yankees. It's just great baseball.

# We generally get
two live games broadcast over here per week. I have to admit that I love it when the Yankees are playing the Red Sox - it's like WWIII could break out at any moment.

# I don't care much for the Yankees

but I really hate the Red Sox.

It was very nice to see them lose the A-Rod sweepstakes this offseason.

# Bonds
hurt his back yesterday (or Thursday) swinging in the batting cage; his status will be day-to-day.

And don't forget about his possible indictment for steroid abuse. He might not have a very good year this season, the way things are looking right now....

# Plus
he's forty
that's gotta hurt the back

# I agree, but only when

it is drug-free, fairly revenue-shared, and hard salary-capped.
