Mr. Aware Eagle Posted April 10, 2012 Share Posted April 10, 2012 -Memorial Day weekend- Monaco Grand Prix and Indianapolis 500-Auburn football home opener-New Year's Day- Winter Classic as well as the beginning of decent CFB bowl games-Conference Championship day in the NFL- all the glory of playoff football without the bad parts of the Super Bowl (even more commercials than usual, bad halftime shows...) Least favorite day:-Iron Bowl Saturday- this day makes everyone in the state even more obnoxious about college football. Yes, I root for teams all over the place. And I apparently favor birds.

cmm Posted April 10, 2012 Share Posted April 10, 2012 The only day I really look forward to every year is baseball's Opening Day. Baseball has always been my favorite sport. And when I was a kid, I always looked forward to it since it was the first sign that the school year was almost over. I don't have to worry about that anymore, but it's still my favorite day of the year. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The way both of those two teams got there just made me want to puke. Add that to the fact that the Marlins had just beat my Giants, compiled on the huge choke job the Giants pulled the year before, I just couldn't handle watching the World Series that year. I actually listened to that game on the radio because I was coming home from I think a Niners game. I basically forgot about the World Series after that and turned on SportsCenter a few nights later to see Jack MacKeon smoking a big Ol stogey and was actually surprised that I just straight neglected the series that year, as I'm a HUGE baseball fan, but didn't feel bad at all.

In the end, I did root for the Marlins because in the end I can't stand the Yankees. BEAR DOWN ARIZONA!2013/14 Tanks Picks Champion Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And they didn't. Neither of them made it. So it doesn't surprise me that a lot of people had an unpleasant taste in their mouths entering that series.
