I, I, I just, I. I don't know, you guys. I'm without words. I wrote about Willie already. I love him, I'm an idiot.

I don't love the "King Felix Territory" but the image is great, in my opinion. Vastly preferable to last year's bro down.

Fernando Rodney, when not the very worst closer in baseball, is a lot of fun. We approve of this message.

Here are the details. If you're on the fence, Colin wrote about why it's great, even if you're childless. (Also there's beer and bloody marys this year, so....)

As a site manager you make mistakes, and often have regrets. Hiring Meg was not one of those things. Congratulations, Meg! (Vote for her, you cretins.)

After the press conference Griffey stayed and talked to reporters for about 20 minutes. One reporter commented that "this was every day in 2009."

Could get used to watching this for a few years.

There's never really been anything in team history, or baseball history, quite like it. I doubt we ever see it again.
