jitters

I've got 'em.

Opening Day

For Major League Baseball and for this weblog

The end of the void at last. Texas Rangers v. Toronto Blue Jays at 4:4:05pm today.

Red Sox open tomorrow against Baltimore.

I had planned to begin the Curse of the Bambino weblog at the start of Spring Training and chronicle all 6 weeks of it; however, with all that has happened, I'm glad I didn't.

I can't think of a Spring that has been so foreboding. I don't think I've gone into an Opening Day with such a sense of gloom. Yes, it's normal for those of us in Red Sox Nation to be cynical, but this is different from that even. I don't even feel like joking that the Sox are tied for first place!

If nothing else, it should be an interesting year.
