The Calendar Has Turned

Don't get me wrong, I enjoy a lot of sports.  I am an avid Bear and Blackhawk fan, as well as a horse player, but it's right about this time-after the calendar turns-that I become increasingly excited about what is about to happen.  In just a few short months, we will be able to spend the days at the local bar (and the week before opening day is when a new BW's is scheduled to open right down the street from me) watching the greatest game ever.  It is certainly still to early to begin predicting anything, but it is not to early to start looking forward to being able to predict things.  I also find myself, right about this time, beginning to watch baseball movies and documentaries more often.  In fact tonight, I think I will head home from the office and watch "Bull Durham," or maybe "The Sandlot."

Hey, pretty similar thoughts here. I wrote this on MLB.com for New Year's Eve...

If you watch The Sandlot, see if that looks like Papelbon's dog chewing up the baseball!

Happy New Year!
