The weather gods have done us no favours, so it looks like they're going to try and get this thing in. Know this: if it was the Cleveland Indians playing the Blue Jays, we'd all be pulling on a cold Guinness right now instead of getting ready to watch a bunch of guys with offensive linemen's numbers start playing. This is what's going to happen, mark my word: somebody's going to get hurt.
Why? Just 'cause. You don't have a "rain delay" during spring training. You look for any excuse to call the game!
Shi Davidi of Canadian Press just reported he discovered spring training in a nutshell: Vernon Wells stuck his head out of the door of the Blue Jays clubhouse, saw the rain letting up, and bawled: 'Whyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyy!' doing a decent impression of Nancy Kerrigan's whining after Tonya Harding knee-capped her. Why, indeed!! One of the Japanese reporters next to me is yelling into his cellphone. Translation: 'Do you believe this $%&*! They're pulling the frigging tarp off."
Blair: Gentlemen, start your pulled hamstrings!
