It´s the most wonderful time of the year...

That´s right, it´s spring training time, and I´m missing it! We get several ESPN channels, but I have no idea if they´ll ever show baseball games. Yesterday, the thought that I might go an entire season without seeing even a single game hit me like an 18-wheeler. It would be the first time in a very, very long time that that happened. (By the way, an excellent care package addition would be Sports Illustrated´s baseball preview edition so I´m not completely out of the loop.) Of course I can keep up to date online, but it´s not quite the same as being there. I´m disappointed I won´t be there for Tom Glavine´s return to Atlanta (he never looked right in a Mets uniform) or Opening Day. I guess I´ll just have to settle for traveling to exotic South American locations. *sigh*
