O hai gaiz. What'd I miss?

Well, whatever it was, it certainly wasn't Major League Baseball fucking up the season before it even started. I've been around for that.

The RedSox open the 162 game grind tonight...... against the Yankees. Absolutely fucking asinine.

Here's the deal. MLB teams like the Kansas City Royals sell out their games opening the season. A month into it, their home games will have maybe a third of the seats filled. The Royals suck and nobody cares about them during the season. 

BUT THEY DO ON OPENING DAY BECAUSE FUCKING BASEBALL IS BACK. WHY ARE THE REDSOX PLAYING THE YANKEES?

If the RedSox were playing the South Dakota School Of The Blind tonight, I and millions of others would be watching on the edge of our seats. Partially because it'd be funny watching blind kids try to get hits off a major league pitcher, but primarily because it doesn't matter who they play tonight. Baseball is back and everybody is like BASEBALL HOORAY DURR HURR GORILLAPENIS.

The RedSox should be playing a shitty team on their schedule tonight, and they should be playing in said shitty teams stadium, not Fenway park. When the RedSox travel to Kansas City somepoint during the season, nobody is going to give a damn.

That's why you're supposed to hold on to these RedSox Yankees matchups, for those down points in the season. A burned out baseball fan around game 90 is going to look at RedSox/Royals and say "I think I'll take a night off", but if it was RedSox/Yankees the response is HOLY FUCK I HAVE TO WATCH TONIGHT RAAAAAAR LOLOLOL.

So, yay baseball is back, boo fucking retarded scheduling. MLB screwed up yet another one here, and they're going to wish they had these three games later on.
