Opening day and Ken Burns Baseball

Is anyone going to the festivities tomorrow. I think I am going to attend.

 

I am watching Ken Burns Baseball right now. It is an account of the history of baseball in a 10 disc 20hr  dvd set. I guess it was made for PBS. Anyway it is pretty informative. I recommend  watching it if you can find it somehow. So many things about baseball I didn't know.

 

I also found this over at minorleagueball.com. Pretty cool Bob Feller interview about him trying to change the players rights in baseball when he retired.

No opening day for me...

I actually won't even get to see most of it on TV.. I have to work late tonight so will probably catch the middle innings on the radio and then may catch the end at home..

If you do get to go, have fun!

Go 'Stros!
