the best and the worst
Opening Day: Cubs 16, Reds 7. Good omen? Not likely. Last year the Cubs scored 16 on Opening Day as well. Last year did not end well. Giving up seven runs is not good. But it isn't so bad either. Pitchers don't really hit their groove until about a month into the season. The best news is that only 3 of the Cubs' 16 runs were scored on a home run. They scored 16 runs on 18 hits. Bunts were put down. Key players got hits with two outs. That shows execution. Execution makes me happy.
Spring break is definitely over. The one day in recent memory that I haven't been able to fall asleep until after 1AM was the night before I had to go back to work. Then I woke up at 4:30 and couldn't for the life of me get back to sleep. Figures. Spring break is like a little teaser. It's like the world is saying to me: See what your life will be like in two months? Yeah, it's not yet. You still have responsibilities. GET OUT OF BED!
