Happy Opening Day, #Cubs fans! (Domestic Opening Day?) (Opening Day, the Sequel?)

Happy is an operative term, I know. New this year: I'll go deeper with daily posts and emails, if you're interested: cubcavern.substack.com

Off we go! #LetsGo #FlytheW

Endings for every baseball team but one are difficult. But that one seemed exceptionally cruel. Sorry, Blue Jays, incredible season. Incredible game.

Omg bunt here to win it….

Smoltz: “…and that’s what’s led to Kevin Gausman’s dream night.”

Two rocket doubles, 1-0 LAD. 🙄

Martinez is great, too!

The Canadian broadcast has the Shulman brothers on the call, correct? Outside of the Cubs, I actually watch a lot of Blue Jays games because of Dan Shulman.

I think I’m going to, but I just HAD to see this Memphis vs Rice game!!!

Remember when we hated cable? Turns out it actually was the best. No, I don’t want to join in multiview. I want to turn the TV on and watch something live.

Going to need Google and YouTube TV to solve this ESPN issue. After which I’m canceling all of this Disney, Hulu, ESPN nonsense all at once, because logging in is a hell I wouldn’t wish on Brewers fans.

Off the bat I thought no chance of a play at the plate. Did that guy stop for coffee?

And now forgotten with Ohtani homer. Not sure how anyone throws him a first pitch in the zone.

Seriously a slam-dunk tap of home. You love to see it.

Did not think you could trash-talk with a slide after scoring from first on a double, but darned if Vlad didn’t do just that. #WorldSeries

Maybe the Gophers were banking on a 4p start?🤷

In the World Series, I do actually like the Blue Jays to defeat the Brewers. I think they have a bit more pop and — hang on, I’m being told it’s not actually Milwaukee representing the National Lea

That is brutal for Seattle. We’ve all been there.

Happy for Toronto and Blue Jays fans, but that is a gut punch loss. What a season for the Mariners.

Mariners bring in Shota with first base open?

That Broncos win was one of the wildest NFL games I can remember. Caps a crazy weekend of football, including a win by my Colts.

Now to turn over to baseball which I assume is the Brewers playing to go to the World Series and
