Opening Day

Baseball started here today on a cold and wet day. Spring is still only a promise. Our Tigers fell in 11 innings to the Kansas City Royals. An embarrassing start, but only the first game. We are to do without two star closers; Zumaya and Fernando Rodney are out on medical further weakening the weakest spot of the Tigers–relief pitching.

The best news of the day was the reaction of DC fans to Bush throwing out the first pitch against Atlanta. A chorus of boos that lasted for two minutes. The announcers of course can’t mention the obvious adding to the farce. Watch and enjoy.
