Check in if you're a baseball fan who doesn't care about the Sox or Yanks

With all due respect to these two fine franchises, it's only three weeks into the season and I'm already sick of hearing about them.

Someone forgot to tell the eastern media that the game of baseball is still played in the rest of the United States.

As for me: Go Cardinals!!!!

1. Go Rockies!!!

Go Reds!!!! My two favorite teams. Boy what an embarrasing game for the Rock Show, Stark allowed 11 runs in 3 innings. :wow:

10. Not as bad as my Rockies

Larry Walker and Preston Wilson are on the DL and they gave up 13 runs yesturday. Only bright spot on the team is Shawn Estes. Though I don't care right now as it is now NBA Playoff Season! The Pacers open up at home vs Boston today on ESPN.

Denounce the IRRITATING and OBNOXIOUS tomahawk chop, and I may forgive you.

21. HEEEEEYYYYY NOW!!

I can't help it you don't appreciate the worth of the tomahawk. That's like trying to take away the Gator chomp (which btw, should be outlawed and spat on).

23. my team is off to a BAD start

Mariners fan here. When your team has someone as cool as Ichiro, you can still brag even when losing.

12. Go Rangers!

As a long time and very frustrated Rangers fan, I am glad to finally see youth on the team with oogles of potential. Now, to firm up the pitching.

19. The Rangers?

You must be mistaken. Are you referring to the Washington Senators?

16. I can't vouch for all them

But as a St. Louisan by birth, I can tell you that most Cards fans are blue collar dems. Dick Gephardt is from Cardinal country and is a big fan.

22. GO PHILLIES

Oh I have so much sympathy for poor Braves fans. And what is it with that stolen chop thing? And cubs aren't cute and Thome is getting healthy and the american league and its sissy little rules suck. Ya'll have a fine non designated hitter day.
