B stands for Busch Stadium! Go Cardinals!
troub, I’m a Yankee fan living in Michigan but a few years ago I was in St. Louis on business and managed to get to a Cardinal game. I was very impressed with Busch Stadium- very clean and well kept, the concession stands had rear windows so you could watch the game while in line, and really there aren’t any bad seats in the house. While I was in line, I accidentally dropped a five dollar bill and the guy behind me called it to my attention because I didn’t realize it. I dare say that doesn’t happen in all cities! Before I went to the game, I assumed that Busch was like the other multipurpose stadiums like the Vet, Three Rivers, and Riverfront. I was wrong. It’s a great place for a ball game. Good luck to the Cards this year and hope to see a rematch of the 1964 WS this year.
As usual, my buddy jj is it right - B is for Bonds.
Hooray for baseball! Hummmm baby! Go Giants! Who wants to go to Wrigley with me on my 25th birthday to see the reigning NL champs pound on the Cubs?
spooje, Dodger fans kill kittens and puppies when they aren’t busy worshipping Satan. Angel fans are so lame I don’t even have to insult them.
MSU, thanks. . .we like to hear such things 
That’d be nice 
Bah.
I suppose I have to take that since you guys won the WS last year. But we’ll beat you this year.
Wait, what? Something about 8 outs to go…a horrible gagging sound…I don’t understand. And why is that giant World Series banner being raised out in center field in Anaheim?
Oh well, at least San Francisco has all those other WS banners to look at. Wait, what? They don’t have any? Ah well, good thing their rival Dodgers don’t have any either so they can’t rub their faces in it? Oh. They do? Hmmm…well, at least lame teams like Kansas City, Toronto and Florida don’t have any either, so it’s not totally shameful. Huh? What? Oh.
Too bad.
Pbtttthhhhbttt.
I have a hard time taking anything out of Plastic…er, I mean Orange County seriously. It’s the fakest place in Fakeland. Nothing is real in Orange County, not even the Angels fans. What do they know about pain and suffering? Wat do they know about being a real fan? Nothing, because unless the Angels are winning, no one cares. No one lives and dies with the Angels.
What’s that? You’ll have to speak up…that damn championship flag is flapping too much.
Kansas City 3, Chicago 0! Woo hoo! The Royals have a winning record for the first time since June 16, 2000!
Pathetic, you say? Indeed, but don’t you burst my bubble. Let me enjoy this view from the top while I still can.

Keep it up, Neurotik, and someone will use your rally monkey as a voo-doo doll!:eek:
Go Tribe!
Bravo!
The Twins won 3-1, and Everyday Eddie got his first of many, many saves!
Boy oh Boy oh Boy, Baseball is BACK!!!
deb does a happy dance
I cannot believe how short the offseason was though. It seems like just the end of October when I was at my last game of the year.
Oh yeah, I was. Me in my red shirt, thunderstixs pounding, and rally monkey towel on lap. Kyla let me say one name and one name only…
Scott Spiezio. Bwahahaha.
I have pictures of last nite’s game for any who wants to email me. I will share the pictures of that beeeeuteafullll banner being raised.
REPEAT! REPEAT! REPEAT!
believe in the power of the rally monkey
Baltimore Orioles. 1 - 0 and on a pace to win 162 games this year.
Well at least until next thursday.
B is for Backup, as in backup shortstop. No relation.
As a Yankee fan, I’m not expecting much sympathy - but it’s not a good sign when one of your stars dislocates his shoulder in the first game of the year.
And Cheesesteak, looks like YES and Cablevision just struck a deal - you should get to see the Yankees this year!
And Deb, maybe I’ll trade you your opening day pictures for some of mine from 1999, 2000 and 2001.
and I wonder why people hate Yankee fans…
I wonder why some don’t.
I was at the game. It was a nasty, albiet totally accidental, collision. Even us Blue Jay fans were really worried - he was down a LONG time.
But let’s be honest; Derek Jeter is the fourth best player on the Yankees, maybe fifth best. If their pitching holds up for another year, the lineup is more than good enough even with Wilson at short.
Holy crap. Have I known you that long?

Whee!
Going for a night game at the Big A against the Rangers(Don’t you dare call it Edison) tomorrow night
Time for a bleacher seat, a cold beer and a couple of Farmer Johns Finest covered in Mustard. Ahhh, I can almost hear my brain reset to fun.
Lets go Angels (I hate the Rangers)
B is, of course, for the Braves. 12 consecutive division championships. True, they’ve been off the past few years, but this year’s team, aside from the fact that half their pitching from the past few years is gone and they got blown out by the Expos today with Maddux starting…er, what was I saying?
13 is such an unlucky number.
Baltimore Orioles. Someday, they’ll be a competitive team again. I just hope it’s in my lifetime. sigh
They actually serve ** that ** crap at a ball park?Visit the Hebrew National thread for some insight.I once had the misfortune of purchasing some of their lunchmeat.The cooked ham had something hard in it,either sinew or bone and the liverwurst tasted * nothing * like liverwurst.Can only imagine the composition of that frank.
B,at least in the Angel’s ballpark,apparently stands for bad food.All they need now is a McD concession.
