So, how did all of our respective teams fare on their Opening Day? Any conclusions we are jumping to after collecting one game's worth of a sample size?

7-4 over the Indians with Arenciba wining ti with a 3 run homer in the fucking 16th inning. Not bad. Maybe we can be a darkhorse for the playoffs this year.

I've got no problem with the Minors being discussed here. Or other leagues too, I suppose. I'm not aware of any other threads discussing either of those though....

The cheating Brewers cheated by paying off MLB to cancel Ryan Braun's suspension. The Cardinals really won today.
