    So ready for this Royals/Mets game. The sarcastic applause for Lucas Duda at Kauffman already made my week.

    Donaldson went 1-5, so don't let me down Cespedes! :p

    Cespedes has a fantastic idiotic drop in the first inning. Carrying on that World Series form.

    Cubs opening day is finally here! This is by far the most optimistic I've ever been going into a season, I don't ever remember expectations being this high. Now the long wait for that 9:05pm start tonight.....

    So, despite too many current injured players, the continuing SNLA impasse (it's Scully's last season for **** sake), DodgerFilms not being able to do what they used to, a little less confidence about their playoff chances, and still being sore over their 2015 playoff elimination on my goddamn birthday...

    How can I not feel measures of joy today?!

    The Spiders shall rescue my hopes that are buried in the NBA Finals beneath a barrage of Steph Curry triples.

    Hope shall ring anew, especially on opening day.

    Those really are very terrible. Good job!

    I'm sad that our second game isn't until tomorrow. What am I supposed to do today, though?!

    Have to say, as great as it was winning yesterday (in spite of Joachim Soria coming back to the team... To give up 3 runs in the 8th, which we don't do dude, you were terrible and Hochevar may have to take that inning instead)... I agree with Ned Yost that it was a little awkward having the Mets there for all the ceremonial stuff. And tomorrow we get our rings in front of them. It kind of makes it seem like we're rubbing it in, which isn't the case. We would be partying no matter who we were playing.

    But it's not like I hate the Mets, even if I did really want to beat them and enjoyed them falling short again :p

    Partly you just want to make it clear that the WS wasn't a fluke. There's a good reason the Royals beat the Mets.

    Hopefully that was just the flu messing with Bumgarner today. Thankfully it wasn't much of an issue because DAT OFFENSE.

    I hated RTTS because by the time my player got to the majors Derek Jeter was playing shortstop for the Brewers and Clayton Kershaw was the Astros' opening day starter.
