Hope Springs Eternal

Baseball season has started.

Let me just say that again so it can settle in.

Baseball season has started.

There's something about the beginning of baseball season. Winter is coming to a close. Spring is at hand. Summer is just around the corner.

If you're lucky enough to be in one of the cities where your home team can actually compete for the title (read: not Tampa Bay or Kansas City), you have great expectations. The entire season lays before you, waiting to be written.

Now is the time to focus on the sport, and not on the scandals. Discussions of Barry and Roger are for another time.

It's comforting to have baseball back on the television. On almost every night from now until October you can find a game on.

I love football. By far it's my favorite sport. But there will always be a special place in my heart for baseball.

Play ball!
