We are on the cusp of yet another baseball season. Opening Night is tomorrow night as the Yankees travel to Boston to renew the most famous rivalry in sports.
The college basketball season is pretty much over, the NFL season is not even a thought in our minds, and the NBA is as forgettable as always. On Sunday night, Americans will remember who they are again. They will remember that the heart of our country still belongs to the game that produced such heroes as Ruth, Williams, DiMaggio, Mantle, Musial, and Mays. They will remember that baseball is an old friend that never let them down. They will feel embarrassed that for a few months, they got caught up in the NFL and a bunch of guys running around into each other. They will settle into their seats at the ballpark, or their couches at home and say, "Yeah, this is who I am. This feels right."
