Opening Day Odds (For my future team, not for the season winners – yes I’m self-centered.)
I broke this list down into a few categories just to give me a starting point. I am committed to keeping an open mind about all teams, but I think it’s fair to establish where my initial biases lie.
100 to 1… Really Long Shots: These are teams that I am already resistant to, and to be convinced, there would have to be some really compelling information…
Yankees: Join the evil empire? Well, I did like Don Mattingly when I was a kid. That’s pretty much about it right now. Too much money, too much hype. Too many bandwagon fans…. ?
Blue Jays: Well… they are Canadian. And not even cool Vancouver Canadian. Unless Robin Sparkles plays first, I’m probably not going to go this direction…
White Sox: Chicago is such a mysterious town to me. Never been there, don’t really know much about it. They have deep pizzas and Frank Thomas. If I am going to pick a team from Chicago, it’s probably not going to be the White Sox.
Padres: San Diego seems like a nice place. Never been there. Weather is apparently ridiculously awesome. I’m a supporter. But the Padres are so damn boring. Boring name. Boring unis. Boring players. Going to need some serious convincing to end up in a Padres cap.
