Its opening day for the 2008 baseball season today. I’m seriously giddy. No one will ever understand how I feel. From 1st grade to high school the only thing I cared about was baseball. I don’t know how I got into college because the only thing on my mind was freshly cut green grass and shoving a packet of big league chew in my mouth.
I think the sexiest thing in the world is a cleanly fielded double play.
So as we speak, I’m watching Baseball Tonight on ESPN before the Washington Nationals vs. Atlanta Braves opening day game and they’re showing footage of the traditional “throwing of the first pitch by U.S Presidents” at baseball games. From all the footage, our current President, George W. Bush is by far the greatest first pitch-thrower of all time. Seriously a strike. Right on the money. Fireball. He made all the other presidents look like girls. I’ve never been so proud of my president before. Thank you ESPN.
Speaking of ESPN, whoever edits their montages is a freaking monster. Some of the clips are just crazy with some sick effects. Big ups to whoever handles that business.
I leave you with a commercial for my hometown team, the San Francisco Giants. If you want a laugh, go to a Giants game and interact with Lou Seal. Hands down the funniest mascot on the planet. This is why I love baseball
