Yay! Was it really only 6 months ago that the Cards won the Series? Guess so. Well baseball is back, so I'm going to have an open thread for the game tonight and a days worth of Opening Day quotes.

To get you ready for tonight's game I bring you Pat Burrell via The 700 Level.....

Pat had just taken Dice-K deep for a two-run homer when the camera followed him chatting with Rod Barajas in the dugout. Harry and Wheels were guessing as to what they were talking about when Burrell, seemingly in good humor, flipped Francona the bird from across the field.
