Blalock, Young and Bradley are the only names I recognize from the Rangers. I bet its hard to have alot of hope for the Rangers this season.

Boosh!
Hamilton, Kinsler, and Millwood?
They have a lot of young talent and a great bullpen. If they can get 27-30 wins from Millwood and Padilla (like they did 2 years ago), they have a chance to win 80-85 games, but there's only a minute chance at actually contending. Idk... it's all about rebuilding this year. I am excited to see Kinsler, Blalock, Hamilton, Murphy, Salty (when he comes up), and Wilson perform... it'll tell a lot about how this team will be the next 2-3 years.

Of course I know Millwood but I was talking about their hitters in particular.

Ah, yeah... sorry, I tend to get defensive about my teams...
Unless it's the Mavericks... they just piss me off.

Well, I attended my first game of the season today. Yanks vs. Rays. Naturally, this being April, the Yankees chose not to show up, so the Rays won, 6-3.
Though it was a crappy game, our new seats rock. We used to sit in the right field bleachers, which are cut off from the rest of the stadium, severally limiting the food and drink options. For food you had the choice of hot dog, nachos, sausage sandwich, pretzel, ice cream and cracker jacks. To drink it was water, soda or lemonade. That's right- no beer in the bleachers. The seats are uncomfortable (no backs), the sun beats down on you and it's cramped. Though the fans who sit there are fucking awesome (it's cool getting to know the regulars throughout the season), the negative outweigh the benefits in my eyes. Our new seats are behind homeplate and over towards first base a ways, in the very top row of the upper deck. Sweet view, in the shade (and no lights near us, so no bugs at night), seats with backs, no one behind us (so we can stand if we so desire) and plenty of food options. Oh, yes, and there's beer.

I saw the Jays-Sox game last Sunday. Sox lost 7-4 or something. The Blue Jays fans heckled me on the way out . My friends thought it was hilarious.

I retract this statement.
Also... 7 games into the season and the Rangers are only 1 1/2 games back! woo!! Better than what I had hoped for.

Don't retract it. You'll be saying it again soon. If not this year then next year.
And go Rangers! I guess.

I love Philly sports fans. I really do. They're loud, passionate, obnoxious and they don't care about losing because they expect it anyway, and when they finally do win they go nuts.

Awesome. If you've never been, you might be disappointed at what a shitty stadium it actually is, but it's still Yankee motherfucking Stadium. Do you already have tickets or are you just going to try for them over the summer?
