"Beisbol's been berry, berry good to me"

Cubs win, Cubs win. Winning on Opening Day is the best because it guarantees that we will not start off a dismal 0-14 like the Cubs of old (read: 3 years ago). "There is something in the air during the baseball season that is just not there the other six months of the year," someone said that in the Ken Burns documentary, Baseball, and I really believe it's true. Maybe it's because baseball coincides with spring and summer, which I am in desperate need of after the tundra-like winters of the Midwest, or maybe it's just knowing that Wrigley will be back and open for business in 5 days. Either way, I'm stoked.
