And God Rested on the 7th Day...Then Woke Up and Said "Play ball!"

Today is the greatest day on the face of the planet for me...today is...Major League Baseball's 2007 Opening Day. So, fuck you...don't call me tonight because I'll be watching the DVR-ed Cubs vs. Reds game afte work. Also, I hope none of my coworkers want anything to do with me between the times of 1:10 PM CT and 4:00 PM CT, because I'll be listening to the game on MLB Radio. Yeah, I paid for radio. So what?

Actually, the first game was played last night between the St. Louis Satanic Fowl and the New York Metropolitains. The Cards lost, 6-1, and the Cubs now lead the division by 0.5 game and are also leading the Wild Card race! For a day...and then...well, you know. Anyhow, the Cubs spent near $300 M this offseason on making the team a winner. But, they'll all be weiners if Mark Prior can't come back and pitch and pitch injury free for the entire season. Anyway, enough of the poo jokes and ambiguous references to male ginetalia...it's Opening Day! Catch the fever virul infection that is Cubs baseball.

Cubs lose, Braves win. I'm telling you, America's team is back.

On a Saints note, I see where they signed Jay Bellamy to a 1 year deal. That is somewhat discouraging to me as Bellamy is undersized and seems to suck. Maybe I'm wrong?

Bellamy's not really undersized, he's basically under-good. He's an adequate run stopper, but he's almost better that a quadrapalegic in pass coverage. Guh.

They also traded a 6th round pick to Miami for K Olinda Mare. To put that into perspective, all the Saints' drafted players made the squad and contributed last year EXCEPT the sixth round pick, Mike Haas, who was released before the season began and was picked up by the Bears's practice squad. Interesting.

I will now be known as Terd Furgeson. I don't know why, but I was just thinking about Celebrity Jeopardy when Norm McDonald played Burt Reynolds and called himself...Terd Furgeson. So, there.

That means:

In a nutsack = Terd Furgeson

Need I mention that the Braves are riding high in first place while the Cubs are busy being ridden by the Astros?
