thoughts for week 1
Comments (0)so, i’m intrigued by the results of baseball’s first week of the 2008 season. i mean i am obviously most interested in the white sox and what they are up to, but really i’m thinking that this is going to be a good year for baseball! first of all, i like the fact that they keep making the season longer. i love going to sox games and also the fact that they are all in HD! WOO! what i don’t like is that work has decided to be dumb and block my usage of the gameday portion of the white sox website. therefore i have watched about 3 hours total this week of white sox baseball, and the majority of that was while my boys lost to cleveland on wednesday night. so basically i haven’t known what was happening until the games were over and sportscenter was showing me the highlights of the game. ALSO, how awesome is it that detroit hasn’t won a game and they were swept by KC?
can we also talk about bad decisions made in the off season? so everyone who knows me knows how bitter i am at ken williams for trading my jon garland. not only am i super bummed because i always wanted to me mrs. garland…BUT i think he is a really good pitcher. his first game of the season exemplified his talents perfectly. i also don’t think it was a very fair trade. i mean a solid, consistent pitcher for a shortstop? infielders we are not short on, it’s good, solid pitching that can take us through the season. i mean i don’t want to be out of the race before we even start! i know it’s way too early to tell anything, but geez.
