The Daily News
1 At last.
2 I always love Opening Day.
3 No, I didn’t ditch school and go to the ball game.
4 I did try to stream it into my classroom via KNBR.
5 Access denied.
6 My room won’t pull in a radio station, and when I went on KNBR’s website, they sent me all these commercials and boushit.
7 This was the first time in a bajillion years that I somehow missed one of my favorite days of the year.
8 Ah, it’s in my blood. I worked for the Giants for a lotta years, and I always managed to get to the openers.
9 Came close, but decided I’d listen to it on the radio. The A’s had already lost their opener, the Dodgers had already won a game
but the Yankees got killed 
.10 And I really wanted to see Timmeh!!!
11 Couldn’t. KNBR now charges for the right to listen to the games on the computer, which is robbery in my opinion. If it’s free on the radio, why should we have to pay for it on the computer?
12 And it wasn’t a complicated process, but took enough time that I couldn’t get the game.
13 Ah, vell.
14 We won!
15 And more important, it’s now officially Spring!
16 I still love baseball. I know there are sports that others prefer, but I’ll go to my grave loving baseball beyond any other sport.
17 Even though many people think football is better, I just don’t agree.
18 Perhaps the great George Carlin could settle it for everyone.
19 Here is Carlin’s classic Baseball vs. Football:

20 I’m guessing there are people who don’t find Carlin amusing.
21 Go figure.
22 The guy’s the best. Here’s his angle on Stuff:
23 Ah ya gotta love it.24 Welp, it’s Wednesday. Last night I actually got to sleep at 4 a.m., not 3 a.m.!
25 Last night I hit the hay nice an early.
26 Anyway, enjoy the day. Timmy Lincecum, following a horrid outing, will receive his Cy Young tonight at the ballpark.
27 So have a great day.
28 Fly low, i’ts Wednesday.
29 Whoa. The fonts just centered.
30 Not worryin’.
31 Peace.
