Epic Video: Best student section in the country... Maryland

I dunno Gonzaga, can you beat what Maryland has?

It's day 2 and all is pretty much right in the world

I know there's 161 more games to go for the Red Sox, but you've got to start somewhere, like today's opening 5-3 victory over the Tampa Bay Devil Rays. Beckett pitched nicely, striking out ten and giving up only one earned run. However, the real star of the game... this guy...

God bless Dustin Pedroia, who hit a homer in the first. The baseball player formerly known as Jason Varitek also went yard against the Devil Rays. Great start for Sox fans - even though they have a long ways to go.

Now you may wonder why I have a picture of the New York Yankees on this blog... well buckaroos, yesterday in their season opener, the $161 million dollar man CC Sabathia sucked it up on the mound in his first outing for the pinstripes. He didn't get through five innings, gave up six runs and didn't record a single strikeout. Marky Mark, or better known as Mark Teixeria went 0-for-4 and stranded five runners. In the end, the Yanks lost 10-5 to the Baltimore Orioles.

And the best part about it is I'm pretty sure somebody robbed the Yankees team bus of their tires and left the thing on cinder blocks. That's the kind of wonderful town that Baltimore is. As my buddy Colin (who went to school at the University of Maryland) would say "there are apartments in Baltimore that only have three walls, you do the math. Yeah it's a dump."

And this? This is a photo of your 2009 Seattle Mariners blowing a 5-3 lead in the bottom of the ninth. Somebody please bring back Heathcliff Slocumb.
