The National Pastime Renewed

Tonight marks the Twins first game of the 2009 Season.  They will be hosting the Seattle Mariners at the Metrodome with the first pitch of their 2009 season scheduled for 8:10 EST.

Baseball is reborn again.  I don’t have too much to say on the subject as nearly everything I thought about saying has already been said.  Looking for somewhere to hang out and talk about the game tonight?  I suggest the WGOM‘s game log.  Stickandballguy is handling the opening day log and different WGOM citizens will be writing the logs each night.  I’m moving from the couple of Tuesday game logs I did last year, to doing the Sunday logs all season.  Get ready for a lot of tRA and name-calling on Sundays.

If you want a more substantive post about the game look here:

• Minnesota Twins Most Valuable Blogger’s Opening Day Piece
• Howard of the Strib’s Piece: I agree Howard, Opening Day should be a a National Holiday.  I was going to write about that today, but the Pro beat me to the punch.
• WGOM Game Log [Opens at 7:10 EST]
• This just in from Joe C: “The Twins are wearing their 1982 throwback uniforms tonight. Red hats, the whole works.”

So there you go.  Everyone else is doing their “oh my, thank god Baseball is back” posts today.  Instead of being one of many, I’ll try to post something on that subject [the draft is already done but I didn't post it this morning] later this week.  Or maybe next week.  We’ll see.

Its opening day.  Go Twins!
