WHY?

In the hell is baseball season starting in any country but America?  Living just down the road from Washington, D.C., I think that the old tradition of opening day in our Nations Capital with the President throwing out the first pitch should come back.

But, like every sport, baseball has caved in to the almighty dollar and like lambs we are led to slaughter at the box office.
