Sunday Night open thread

Sunday night baseball is one of my favorite events of the week. It’s a great way to end the weekend. Tonight the Nationals play the Cardinals. I don’t necessarily care for either team, but I really hate the Cardinals, so go Nationals!

That brings me to tonight’s topic: Who is your favorite baseball team? Those of you who have been around for a while know that mine is the Cubs. When I was growing up in Nashville in the 90’s we got 2 baseball games on TV every day- the Braves on TBS and the Cubs on WGN. Everyone around here became a Braves fan because they were good. I became a Cubs fan because I didn’t want to follow the crowd and because they were on TV most days when I got home from school.

Most years haven’t been easy, this current one included, but last year made all of the other years worthwhile.
