And the Orioles starting lineup is like the Chinese economy.  Just waiting to collapse.

It is just what I told you in 2014 man. We have to enjoy it while it lasts.

Taxes are due Friday, however.

Wrong.  Monday, April 18th.  Friday is Emancipation Day in Washington, DC;  the kind of holiday derweiß could get behind.

Damn, Free the Slaves Day delays paying your taxes?  To a Republican that's a dilemma like offering free bacon to a Jew.

Reds fans were all prepared for doom and gloom and don't quite seem able to cope with being 5-1 after the first week.  That will change into unfounded arrogance if their team has a good second and/or third week.

And of course Cubs fans are treating their 5-1 start like they just won the damned World Series.

Cleveland Caucasians. It has a nice alliterative effect.

Royals are 4-1.  And they did just win the World Series.  :cool:

And the non-bandwagoning fans have every right to remind us of that.  Not directing that at you-- there were quite a few Royals "fans" that came out of the woodwork in the past few months.  Including some goofball Reds fans that were excited about Cueto.

Cardinals did the Bugs Bunny bat-around in the first three innings of their home opener today.  Friggin' 7 extra base hits by the third with zero outs.  I know it's against the Brewers, but the stats still count.

I was referring to the whole "Lincoln paid them to get the fuck out of D.C." angle.

Okay.  What does that have to do with baseball, CountDeMalcom?
